In this video, I demonstrated how to recreate the famous Doppler effect within Bitwig Studio using an FX grid. I explained how the sound from a car driving past you would pitch up until it is directly in front of you and then pitch down as it moves away from you. To achieve this, I used a modulator, an absolute module, and an X and Y pad. I also used a logarithmic modulator and an convolution reverb to simulate a more realistic sound. Finally, I provided a preset with the settings used in the video in the description below.

In this video, I'm discussing panning in Bitwig Studio. I explain how pan knobs can be a bit unnatural because they don't take into account the room environment and the direct signal from both the left and right side. I suggest using the grid to split up the signal and add attenuation, blending, delay, and a low-pass filter to simulate the room environment and create a more realistic stereo field. I also provide a free preset for viewers to try out.

In this video, I showed you Goran Groove's handy drum library called 'Studio Standard'. It has multiple velocity layers for each instrument and the sounds are already well-mixed, so you don't need to adjust the volume sliders. There are some drawbacks though, like no built-in EQ settings. I demonstrated how the plug-in works by creating a drum groove in Bitwig and showed you some of the features like velocity spread and probability settings. Finally, I also mentioned that the library is very affordable and that there is a free trial available on the website.

I was creating a dense rain sound effect by layering different noise modules and then changing the volume of the noise with a multiplier. I then added layers to the sound with a sample and hold, a bandpass filter, and a convolution with a room. Finally, I modulated the EQ to change over time.

In this video, I'm showing viewers how to create music from scratch using tools such as the polygrid, kick drum synthesis, noise module, filter, distortion, chorus, mod delay, step mode, auto level, ducking, wave folder, reverb, dice, clap, white noise, envelope follower and diva. I'm also demonstrating how to sprinkle samples on top for an organic sound. At the end, I offer viewers the chance to download the track on my Patreon page.

In this video, I talk about the ratio setting feature in Bitwig Studio, and how it can be used to create interesting melodies and chords. I explain how it works and how to use it to create chords by modulating simple ratios. I also discuss how to use the ratio setting with equal temperament, just intonation, and how to use the pitch quantizer to correct the frequency. Finally, I demonstrate how to use the ratio setting to create chord progressions and scales that sound pleasing to the ear.

In this video, I'm going to explain how I recreated the Eurorack module by Eventide called Misha in Bitwig Studio. I'll explain how it works, how to download the patch, and how to recreate it from this video. I'll also demonstrate how to use the keyboard, trigger buttons, and sequencer to control it. Finally, I'll show you how to transpose and use the key filter to create different scales. So, stay tuned and I'll show you how to make your own Misha clone!

In this video, the polarity demonstrates how to use the open source website Basic Pitch to convert audio to MIDI. It is easy to use, does not require a login or payment, and does not upload or store audio. The speaker also shows how to adjust the BPM setting in the MIDI file. Finally, polarity recommend using the website as a free and open source alternative to the paid plug-in Samplab.
