      Im having such an issue with these stupid clippers man I'd like to buy 3rd party plugins but the good ones are all crazy expensive
      thinking about switching over to fl studio as the stock plugins in fl seem way more appealing

      @@AlexReidStudios I've tested a couple of free soft clippers but none have yielded the results I long for, moreover, in regards to FL Studio I'm not considering switching daws over just clippers alone, that would be ridiculous.
      After 2 years of using bitwig and doing some digging online, my frustrations have only increased overtime, mainly in the mixing department. Mixing into master (every track on soft clipper) is tedious to set up, and while I don't have a large issue with the automation, the in-built automation certainly isn't as flexible or versatile as it is in FL.
      All that aside, my biggest issue lies with the EQ+, yes, I use a third party EQ, but damn was it frustrating when I found out that the EQ+ apparently 'wasn't designed for parallel processing', which was what the developers had stated after receiving massive community backlash. A bit ridiculous for a daw with fx layering as one of it's main strengths to have it's only versatile EQ be incompatible with parallel processing in mind. They use EQ+ to advertise the full package deal as well, which I find hilarious.
      The FL Studio development team seem to take community feedback seriously, improving the daw by a substantial amount for the most part with every update, stock plugins are amazing, the drum-rack is also leagues ahead of bitwig. Probably won't be switching in a while, but I digress.

    There is another reverb in Bitwig, kind of. Add Delay+, set the delay time to 0.00ms, set the Blur character to Space and 100%, and tweak the feedback, EQ, ducking, and width to taste. The delay time acts as a pre-delay, and feedback becomes reverb time.

    • @AlexReidStudios

      Nice! Honestly didn't think of that, gonna try it!

      @patcupo Год назад +1

      @@AlexReidStudios I mean, the other Blur characters can work with longer Feedback times, but I think Space sounds the best as a reverb. It’s kind of like having a stock, customizable, mini Valhalla Supermassive.

    Lots of good tips in this one, and easy to apply to other daws. would love a convolution video. probably one of my favorite effects. If you want a very interesting convolution plugin, try fog convolver 2 by audio thing. lets you run more than one IR in a few different configurations for some really cool results.

    I was frustrated about the lack of being able to mute/solo and change volume of multiple selected tracks, BUT IT EXISTS!!!! Thanks!
    Is there a way to do the same thing from clips? As in that you select clips on the arranger, hit a command and it would solo those tracks? I feel like this would be faster when working on larger projects...

      No, this indicates parameters that are automatically mapped to a connected midi controller. It‘s called "Soft controller assignments", and it follows the device that is currently selected, pretty helpful.
