Select In

Select In module panel in Bitwig Grid
Select In in Bitwig Grid 6.0.6.

A signal-controlled binary selector that routes one of two inputs to one output.

What it does

Select In treats its control input as a low/high decision. A low control chooses In 1 and a high control chooses In 2, allowing logic, gates, sequencers, or other Grid signals to switch the source automatically.

Controls and ports

Control Label Official description
logic_in Logic In Low value routes in 1 to output;
high value routes in 2 to output

Practical uses

  • Alternate between two oscillators, modulation shapes, pitches, or effect returns from a gate pattern.
  • Use a comparison or logic module to make routing depend on another signal's state.
  • Build sample-and-choose or conditional patches without a manual front-panel toggle.

Things to know

  • Low selects In 1 and high selects In 2 according to the installed description.
  • Unlike Toggle In, this module is driven by a cable rather than a stored panel state.
  • The exact low/high threshold, equality ownership, and any anti-click transition are not established by a recovered Nitro body.
  • If switching audio clicks, smooth or crossfade the control/path deliberately until the live behavior is measured.

Technical details

No Nitro implementation has been confirmed for this visible module. The behavior is described conservatively from module metadata and editorial research.

No exact Nitro implementation has been recovered for the visible Select In module. The established interface is a binary selector: conceptually out = high(select) ? in2 : in1. The definition of high, behavior at the threshold, stereo reduction of the control cable, and whether the selected audio changes hard or through a short fade remain deliberately unspecified.

Open questions

  • Measure the exact switching threshold, value equal to the threshold, negative values, and stereo control reduction.
  • Determine whether selection is instantaneous, block-rate, sample-rate, or smoothed, including rapid toggling.
  • Test unconnected inputs, NaN/infinite control values, voice scope, reset, and startup selection.

Version and sources

Checked against Bitwig Studio 6.0.6. This page combines Bitwig's module metadata, the existing Grid course and guides, and Nitro analysis where the mapping is strong enough to support a technical statement.
