I've tested it some time ago and it missed quite a lot of features that other daw have.

I can imagine that in the future Bitwig will beat Ableton. Right now it doesn't beat Ableton for me just yet. It has potential to be one of the best daw out there.

I've met a new producer friend lately, who went from FL to Bitwig. ...interesting route. Originally I thought that Bitwig's appeal is targeted to Ableton customers only, but may be the combination of plain simple Ableton style and some advanced features is more interesting then I originally thought. Might give it another try actually.

Only thing I'm worried about are those "earned" features of Ableton. It has Elastique Pitch implementation, it has Glue, EQ filters from Andrew Simper, quite cool grain delay. ...I might miss that in Bitwig. On the other hand, sandboxing all the plugins and the autdio engine is absolutely stunning feature. Crashes just doesn't take down the whole DAW. Bitwig can restart the crashed element right away. I definitely need that in Ableton ASAP.

...but don't overdo it, because that's called being a d***k.

Bitwig is fantastic if you do not want to use Windows or OSX to make music, I love using it on Linux but I am to attached to Live 9 to move over.  ;D

Bitwig 2.0 would change the DAW market... Mark my words ;)

What makes you say this about Bitwig 2.0? What features are expected in the 2.0 release that would change the game?

This might not be the right thread to bring this up but I was inspired to download the demo version of bitwig;

my immediate and only issue so far is that I can't figure out how to change the velocity sensitivity for my keyboards/overall sensitivity in general? I have a korg microkey and a m-audio keystation, both are fairly responsive but in bitwig they dont deviate more than 5-10% if even.

Believe me I searched online for almost an hour before I gave up and came here, I hope someone might know the answer.

I'd also love to know the answer to this. I'm still a full-time Bitwig user, but this is probably the only feature I feel is "missing" when compared to other DAWs.

I looked around for this the other day as well, but couldn't find anything to change MIDI velocity on the fly like with Ableton's built-in plugins.  There are plenty of free third-party plugins that can do this, though.

i mean the daw would be completly modular. like in ableton u need to have max for live for creating / editing devices .. with biteig 2.0 you can do it in the daw itself .. it would mean bitwig is completly customisable by the user

What sort of plugin?

Would I need to establish it within my current default templates (so when I open a new project, it's automatically set up?) Like for example my current template for a new project is 5 samplers, Fm8, serum, massive, 3 instances of kontakt and a realistic custom piano eq/reverb for fleshing out ideas I thought of on an actual piano.

Would the plugin route to the master, or...?
