Bitwig Studio v5.0.4 [WIN macOS LINUX]

Bitwig Studio v5.0.4 [WIN macOS LINUX]

Bitwig Studio is the single solution for realizing any musical idea across every stage of production with Powerful Editing Tools, Expressive MIDI Support, Instruments & Effects.

Bitwig Studio 5 is OUT NOW and it introduces five new MSEGs
Developing this family of modulators and modules led to a major upgrade for our entire modulation system. In version 5, modulators can do more, like control track- and project-level parameters and expand into pop-out windows. We also created new ways to perform live with our software, and overhauled the browsers to make it easy to find what you need.

Browse Better

The browser improvements are more than just a fresh coat of paint. Now, search results for plug-ins, presets, and wavetables (etc. etc.) all live in one place. The updated browsers also provide better ways to find our devices, customizable shortcuts, and a more visual way to browse your content.

Modulation Heaven

The modulation system in Bitwig Studio allows you to use Macro controls, Note Expressions, LFOs, and Envelopes to modulate any device, VST plug-in, or hardware parameter. With 30+ modulators (and counting) the potential for creative expression is endless. Bitwig Studio enables microtuning along with a world of other ideas. Since the arrival of the Micro-pitch device, each update to Bitwig Studio has included more presets for it.

Hardware Integration

Hardware integration is a large part of what makes Bitwig Studio unique. MIDI handling, note timing, and latency compensation are aspects of this. Other prominent features include MIDI Clock Sync and Ableton LINK. But where Bitwig Studio really stands out is our collection of hardware integration devices.

Enter The Grid

The Grid is a sound designer’s dream. It can be a synth, an audio effect, or most things you can imagine. It’s a modular sound design environment, open for you to build your own creations from scratch.

Audio That Works For You

Audio clips are your musical blocks, and edits can be made within them. Split at onsets, repitch with curves, or scale and stretch in various ways. And when the tempo changes, your audio will match it, courtesy of time-stretching options from us and Zplane.

Notes That Do More

Our notes are dynamic, allowing micro-pitch, pressure, panning, and more for each individual note. So get true polyphony from Bitwig’s instruments, or send these notes as MPE or CV signals. Or even add some musical logic with Operators, modulating when and how notes play.

Audio Comping, Anywhere

Comping is a clean workflow for recording and then combining the best parts of many takes. This works on any audio clip in Bitwig, so move freely between the Arranger and Launcher. Even drag in long audio to “fold” a new comp, exploring old tapes in a new way.

Instruments & Effects

With over 90 different instruments, audio and note FX, container devices, and signal routers you can translate any idea into music.

Sampler, Resampled

Meet Bitwig Studio’s Sampler, featuring several playback modes, dynamic note-based modulations, and a powerful multisample editor.

Sound Doctrine The Vamp WAV

By | September 6, 2023

Sound Doctrine The Vamp WAV

Sound Doctrine The Vamp WAV

Quartet Gospel music is one of the earliest and most traditional styles that make up the roots and foundation of gospel. Originating in the southern regions of America sung by blacks who were enslaved on plantations, it was a musical tradition that brought unity, solace, and hope in the face of adversity.

The tradition has carried on long after slavery and has gone on to not only be a foundation in gospel music (with legendary and pioneering music from groups like the Mighty Clouds of Joy, The 5 Blind Boys of Alabama, and The Dixie Hummingbirds to name a few) but it served as a bridge to be a major proponent in the foundation of soul and early pop music with acts like Lou Rawls, Johnnie Taylor, Wilson Pickett, Otis Clay and Sam Cooke tracing their roots to the genre.

This music style highlights four part vocal harmonies with much of the content being about conversion and salvation. The Sound Doctrine team had grammy award winning producer and gospel music pioneer Dana Sorey help us channel these authentic sounds at CBlake studios along with highly decorated instrumentalists and producers, Morgan Turner, Antwann Easton, and our very own Leonard “Pudge” Tribbett with accompanying vocals from gospel recording artist “Jay Todd.” We present to Splice users “The Vamp,” a homage to the gospel of old that we know is useful for any producer today!

Phil Speiser THE_STRIP v1.0.0 [WIN]

THE FUTURE OF MIXING IS HERE!
RELEASE READY RESULTS – EASIER THAN EVER – EVERY SINGLE TIME

I have to admit, for the first years of my musical career the mixing stage was always the part of my production process I felt most insecure about.

Is my kick loud enough? Is my mix too muddy? Will it sound good on a big system? Does it sound professional and compete with other releases?

I’m sure you also found yourself building endless signal chains, tweaking for hours just to realize you completely got lost in the process and have to start all over again.

It makes sense, of course, because mix and mastering is the last stage before you get your new creation out into the world.
But over many years, I learned and realized a lot about mixing, what the actual purpose is, and finally, how I effortlessly get every mix right without even really thinking too much about it.
And once I was there, mixing suddenly became a fun creative thing.

I’m more than excited to present you my brand new intelligent mixing plugin, THE_STRIP!
From now on, thanks to THE_STRIP, you will effortlessly get your mixes spot-on – 100% of the time.

THE_STRIP is all my knowledge and all my breakthrough moments about mixing distilled into one smart all-in-one mixing plugin.
It’s my personal channel strip on steroids.
The plugin will take care of the technical parts, leaving you with the creative decision.

It’s not about “does it sound right?” anymore. It’s about “how do I want my mix to sound?”

IT’S ALMOST LIKE I’M IN THE STUDIO WITH YOU…
From the automatic mixing under the hood to instant mixing tips based on your signal – THE_STRIP is all my mixing knowledge in one plugin

THE_STRIP IS LISTENING
Let THE_STRIP analyze your signal, and under the hood, it will custom tailor everything to your sound. Don’t be fooled by the simple controls on the interface – the complex work is already handled.

MY PERSONAL MIXING CHAIN ON STEROIDS
THE_STRIP is based on my personal mixing chain that I refined over the past decade, infused with the smart functionality and workflow I always wanted to have.

Confidence in every mix – no second-guessing. THE_STRIP takes care of the technical aspects.

Streamlined, innovative all-in-one mixing solution

Premium sound in each module – tweaked to sonic perfection.

Blend learning and mixing with intuitive signal based tips and feedback.

Phil Speiser WHATTHEKEY v1.1.0 [WIN]

KEY DETECTION. REIMAGINED
NEVER WORRY ABOUT KEYS AND SCALES AGAIN…

PERFECT RESULTS IN NO TIME
I made WHATTHEKEY because I was missing a simple but bulletproof MIDI key detection plug-in too many times already. In theory it’s a simple task – but only if your progression or melody contains all 7 notes of the scale – in reality that won’t happen too often. And then the guessing starts. This is why I designed my own algorithm that will help you to get perfect key matches every

GET RID OF THE GUESSWORK
The moment you don’t have enough notes of the scale in your MIDI to get a perfect match (which will be most of the time) , WHATTHEKEY’s KEY WIZARD comes in and will help you to complete your progression / melody to get 100% certainty in seconds and might also give you inspiration to make your chords/melodies more exciting.
