Let's build an... Ambient Set

  • Making ambient involves rethinking music, which helps us see our DAW and mixer in new ways. In this video, we'll make rhythms that are free, note sequences that are happily jumbled with clip blocks, random granular textures, drones that are moved by sound, and minutes-long automation that can touch the whole project. Let's walk thru a music-making process and see Bitwig's secret powers in action. 🌊🦸‍♀️
    Contents:
    0:00 Introduction
    00:40 Trying a rhythmic synth that feels a little free
    03:12 Ambient = Reverb, and Flanger+ with Convolution is better than another $450 guitar pedal
    04:22 Sampler goes granular to find atmosphere from any audio file
    06:56 Voice Stacking means randomized layers
    14:44 Recording a linear musical line, then breaking it into smaller pieces
    16:44 With next actions and clip blocks, arrangement logic comes to the clip launcher #indeterminism
    21:51 One track can even hand out notes to other tracks, keeping only one playing at a time
    24:52 Using modulators to change the sound of a track whenever another track is active
    27:28 Getting rid of notes completely with a droning, always-active Polymer…
    31:30 …and putting it on an FX track, so mixer sends are now doing phase modulation and PWM (duh)
    36:32 Modulators and controls from the project-level can touch all tracks and elements

    Hi. I would like to ask you to make a video lesson on how to work with audio channels. For beginners.Because there are lessons on the most complex modules, but just mute the sound of a third-party plugin, which simply transmits data to the instrument is not. I read in the documentation about routers, audio effects and so on, but how to work with them in the documentation does not say anything.That is, you have to sit for hours and experimentally figure out how this or that router or whatever works.And there are dozens of buttons and functions.So many combinations are required to come to a certain conclusion? I understand that those who have been working with Bitwig for a long time seems simple, but for those who start it's just .....Or could you suggest a video lesson not on notes and modules, but how to work with audio channels?And it would not be bad to make video lessons. Take one project and on its example show how all the tools and functions work.Let me give you an example, a lesson on modules. Some videos start with a screen full of modules, but how were they assembled from the beginning? What's the problem with numbering: this is the beginning, this is the middle, and this is the end.

    This videos fine but(no hate) please dont play high pitched noises in a tutorial video like this for as long as that FM arpeggio goes on. Ear fatigue is real and high pitched noises are far more likely to annoy us as they repeat over and over and over.

  • @contulsubito

    Bitwig certainly has many more logical improvements than any other DAW.But its theme makes it impractical, and as the project grows, it becomes more and more difficult to stay focused for creativity.His theme has many unused spaces.For this reason, I still stay with Ableton, even if it lags behind with improvements.When Bitwig will have a theme that help me for creativity, as Ableton does, or ProTools or Studio One, Bitwig will definitely become my main daw.
