In this video, I discuss the issues surrounding Bitwig's EQ Plus, specifically the phase shift problem that occurs when it's used in parallel processing, which can create a frequency notch at the top end. While EQ Plus works fine when used on its own or in parallel with another EQ Plus, the EQ5 is preferable for parallel processing with different devices due to its lack of phase shift. I hope Bitwig addresses this issue in future updates, as it's a long-standing problem, but in the meantime, knowing these differences can help users decide which EQ to use in specific scenarios.

In my video, I discussed the new features and improvements in Bitwig Studio 5.3 Beta 5, including enhancements to the audio system and fixes for issues like infinite loops in the audio engine. I demonstrated how to use note FX selectors effectively with key switches and channel filters for layering and transposing notes. Finally, I expressed hope that this would be the last beta version before the stable release and encouraged viewers to download and try it out.

I made a video about the new Bitwig Studio 5.3 Beta 4 release, highlighting the significant fix in how Note FX Selector, InstrumentSelector, and FXSelector devices now switch to the correct layer before sending a note. I demonstrated the previous issue with note layers not switching correctly and encountered a new bug where the audio engine crashes, which I hope will be addressed soon. Despite the issues, I showcased how to switch between chord layers using key switches, though there's still a problem with note triggering that needs fixing.
