In the video, I demonstrated how to set up an XO preset in Bitwig Studio to avoid muting and unmuting the return channel. By muting the individual buses and leaving the master channel untouched, you can hear the preview of samples without any audio leakage. Additionally, I showed how to create a mono bass sound using the Serum wave table editor, removing the fundamental and replacing it with a stable mono sine wave, while still maintaining a stereo spread on top.

In this video, I show how to create interesting sounds and soundscapes using tones and wavetables. I primarily use Bitwig Studio and Serum, but just the wavetable editor in Serum. I demonstrate how to manipulate the wavetable by drawing in different wave shapes and randomizing certain partials. I then export the wavetable and import it into Bitwig Studio's wavetable oscillator. Using the wavetable oscillator, I create a motif by randomizing pitch steps and applying pressure and timbre modulation. I also incorporate effects like convolution reverb and delay to enhance the sound. I then explore using the polygrid to create more complex sounds by drawing in sign partials and modulating them over time. Finally, I use the polygrid to create a pad sound by combining sign partials, applying ADSR envelopes and filters, and adding effects like delay and chorus.

In this video, I demonstrate how to use the modulation capabilities in Bitwig Studio, specifically with the Polymer synthesizer. I show how to use a small trick with a wavetable to get more out of the synthesizer and push it in different directions. I explain the concept of using modulators and how you can create different sounds by modulating different parameters. I also show how you can use the wavetable oscillator as a modulation source and create FM, subtractive, and additive synthesis within the Polymer synthesizer. Overall, I highlight the power of modulations in Bitwig Studio and how they can enhance your sound design capabilities.
