Bitwig Studio is a powerful program for Windows designed to help you create original audio tracks. The utility also offers a few links to different predefined sound collections. However, these packages are completely optional, and you can insert and utilize your own recordings.

Review

The application provides you with twenty five audio FX devices, such as delay, reverb, flanger, among others , as well as nine instruments, including a drum machine, sampler and polysynth. There are also nine containers and eleven modulators, generators, note FX or routers. Thanks to the abundance of tools, you can transpose your ideas to musical notes.

Graphical interface

Predictably, with so many functions relying on a variety of parameters, the graphical interface is difficult to understand at first. The main window is split into multiple modules, which you may decide to hide or show, according to your particular needs.

Having more than one workspace on one window is a little distracting. However, after practicing for some time, the software becomes accessible. This is due to the fact that each panel groups together similar features. As you get accustomed to the GUI, you may find the View menu useful since it allows you to quickly change its appearance. Alternatively, you may try a more advanced DAW utility called Ableton Live.
