In this video, I demonstrate two tips in Bitwig Studio. The first tip is about adding dirtiness to kick drums using either distortion, noise modulation, or using the EQ with a render modulator. The second tip is about creating a mono effect below a certain frequency using the mid-side split and a high pass filter.

Here you can select notes on your piano keyboard, and it'll show you the corresponding scales. So if you have a melody or a chord progression, you can use this to find out which scales include those notes.

In this video, I introduce a preset called Bass Sound Generator that generates a new bass sound every time a key is pressed on a MIDI keyboard. I demonstrate how to create random Bass sound patterns and add drums to create variety in the track. The preset is available for download on my Patreon page.

In this video, I demonstrate how to create unique and interesting filter shapes using Bitwig Studio's Grid and all-pass modules. By combining a dry signal with various all-pass filters and using invert and blend modules, it is possible to create custom filter types with different peaking frequencies and characteristics. These filters can be manipulated and modulated to create dynamic and evolving sounds in Bitwig Studio.

In this video, I start by using polymer to create a quad progression with a saw 16 fat spread out. I then add chorus and delay effects, as well as a no transpose and a global modulator. Next, I record the sound into audio and put it into a sampler, applying reverb and using the transpose feature. I also create a bass from the recorded sound and add percussion elements to create an interesting pattern. Finally, I introduce a lead sound and make some adjustments to the cutoff, volume, and randomization. I end the video with a crash and thank the viewers for watching.

In this video, I demonstrate a preset called "Multipressor" that I've created. It functions as a multi-band compressor, allowing for the avoidance of phase issues and frequency dips. The preset offers controls for thresholds, ratio, attack/release, and input gain, as well as the ability to adjust the reaction time and gain reduction of different frequency bands.

In this video, I discuss the highly requested Drum Buss device in Ableton Live and how it can be replicated in Bitwig Studio. I provide a free preset download that mimics the functionality of the Drum Buss using native Bitwig devices. I encourage viewers to download the preset and provide feedback to help improve and tailor it to their preferences.

In this video, I discuss the controversial Sausage Fattener plugin and its effect on music. I explain that it functions as a soft clipper with a compressor in front, preventing audio material from clipping too hard. To demonstrate its impact, I provide a free preset for Bitwig Studio that closely replicates the plugin's sound.

In this video, I demonstrate how to replicate the Oxford Inflator plugin inside Bitwig Studio. While the Oxford Inflator is essentially just a soft clipper or saturator, I attempted to copy its curve as closely as possible. I provide a free preset for Bitwig Studio users to achieve a similar effect with options like the FX filter plus device, bipolar/unipolar options, or the saturator with a soft knee.
