Jan 02, 2026 Tutorial
In this first video of 2026, I demonstrate a powerful workflow in the yet-to-be-released Bitwig Studio 6.0, showing how to transfer recorded automation into device modulators like Phase-4's segments modulator for more flexible, note-triggered modulation. This technique allows you to create dynamic, evolving sounds that are not tied to specific MIDI clips, making it easy to trigger complex parameter movements with each note. I also discuss wishing for a dedicated on-the-fly recording modulator and encourage Bitwig to add such a feature in future updates.

In this video, I share my process of creating risers and transitioning effects using the global modulator in Bitwig Studio. I was inspired by UJAM's final boost and Data Life's Endless Smile plugins and wanted to replicate the effects in Bitwig. Instead of using manual automation, I used the curve editor to create a ramp that gradually increases the effect's intensity over time. I demonstrated how to apply this technique to individual tracks, such as chords, bass, and percussion, to create more dynamic and interesting effects with precise control. This technique is a great VST replacement and allows for more creative flexibility in creating risers and sweeps in your music.
