Just some new ālofishā stuff ^^ I use Bitwig on Linux only with native Linux VSTs.
Any VSTs you can recommend? I didnāt find a lot of VSTs that are compiled for linux
@derk all the u-he stuff, grallion, gclip, luftikus, vitalium, tal-reverb and maybe pionoteq but i donāt have this one.
Iāve finished my project of techno-ish tracks and the coming months Iām working on a new project that will be more experimental (to me). More irregular patterns, more randomness. Iām even thinking of adding some of my own voice samples. The first track in this series is a composition made with the orchestral string presets, beautiful stuff, and a grand piano.

Something Darker
Essentially just plugins, samples, and bitwig
ā¦oh and some guttural mumbling
I missed posting here a few days but Iāve been filling my YouTube channel daily.
Iāve made two new things with Bitwig in Jamuary:
I tried out how to create granular stuff with the Grid Sampler, where the secret to acutally having multiple grains lies in making the grid have several voices - which catapults CPU useage of course, and for single grid patch songs like this one, also can introduce odd phasing and other fragments. Iām not 100% certain how random LFOs work with multiple grid voices. Definitely, oscilloscopes etc. donāt display anything any more with more than 1 voice, so thereās none in here.
This was made in Bitwig, and the songās performance is assisted by Bitwig (by means of me just automating the heck out of All The Macros), but is actually a single synth patch song in Phase Plant. All the sounds, FX etc. come from that one patch, I only added some mastering after this recording.
Hi
Iāve produced this EP using just Bitwig 8 Track,its internal instruments and FX,samples from my collection.
I didnāt use any midi controller, Iāve recorded all drum, bass, and melodies lines using just a laptop keyboard. Four tracks,two of them are breakbeats, and the other two -liquid funk DNB.
Thanks for listening!
I did a few breakbeat tracks this month but ultimately Iām drawn back to the 4/4 kick. I just discovered that I can add LFO modulators almost anywhere to fiddle with knobs for me. Maybe I should have read the manual sooner.
Yay knobs! I read the Bitwig user guide when I was trying to get used to lockdown and I learned a lot. It is a guide actually written to be read. Someone is taking care of little details a leaving fun little comments within the instructions.
And your track, nice build up!
New track in the works. All done with native Bitwig devices. Again played with the vocoder on the vocals. I am still a bit undecided on only using the vocoder or using a mix of the natual vocals + vocoder.
Iām also doing a collaboration project with some other members on soundcloud, one of them also uses bitwig mostly. Well, itās not so much a collaboration but we do these themes and everyone makes a track in said theme and we have a bit of a chat on discord. Anyway, this time the theme is āpermafrost / frozen worldā and I made this track. It starts of small and low and dark and slowly opens up, as a very long night comes to an end
Today it was time for Bitwig Grid again in my Jamuary It started as ājust something psyā and quite definitely became something very close to forest psy.
The kick and the bass were very quick to make, I spent most time on the animals I think
Nice work. Are you sharing any of your experiments bitwig files? Iād love to have a look at a few of them to learn a few things about the grid
Thanks a lot @derk! I havenāt shared any of them yet anywhere, no - I have a repository where I started sharing some of the VCV patches Iād made, would make sense to do that for the Grid patches as well. Many of them donāt quite work without the samples for parts in there, like the riser hereā¦
I did actually export the animals bit of this grid as a preset though, just readied it for download:

Iāll let you know if I find out how this could work in a more organised fashion!
I concluded my January project today with a very slow (96bpm) 4/4 track. I was looking for a lower bound in bpm that still works with a 4/4 kick. I cheated a bit by doubling a few of them but overall Iām quite happy with the result
In the Venus Theory community Discord, thereās currently a challenge running, where a track has to be made that fits one of a few made-up genres. I picked ā1-bit web ambientā, and this is the result:
"1-bit web ambientĀØ, heh. Your Experiment #36 sound triggered the parts in my brain where the song TONES ON TAIL rain 1984 - YouTube was stored and almost forgotten for years. And for this, I thank you. If you donāt know it, I recommend it from beginning to end.
Thanks @icaria36, listening now, this sounds wonderful! And yeah, the bleeps and bloops have a certain similarity
