In this video, I explored Bitwig Studio by using the Delay 1 device to create extended looping effects without relying on a VST. By chaining multiple delay units and incorporating quantization, I achieved synchronized, polyrhythmic loops that can be layered to produce ambient tracks effortlessly. I shared this technique as a straightforward yet powerful way to innovate within Bitwig Studio, inviting viewers to try it themselves and share their experiences.

I recently explored the Ripple Delay plugin by Process Audio and found its ability to integrate effects within the feedback loop, while allowing delay times as low as one millisecond, to be quite impressive. This feature is currently challenging to replicate in Bitwig Studio due to its limitations with buffer size, which affects delay time when effects are included in the feedback chain. I'm hopeful for future updates in Bitwig, but in the meantime, I recommend trying out this plugin to experiment with creating unique soundscapes.

In this video, I discuss the problem of using delays in situations where there is a shuffle or groove setting. When a straight melody is overlaid with a shuffled delay, it can sound off and disrupt the groove. To address this, I demonstrate how to create a shuffled delay using the FX grid and a feedback loop, allowing the delay to align with the groove setting. I provide a patch for download and encourage viewers to try it out and provide feedback.
