MYTH: www.tracktion.com/products/myth
Dawsome released a new synth. Myth is a super deep synthesizer with a lot of different engines and ways to create crazy sounds. It has a bit of everything and using it is surprisingly easy. Dawsome gave me a license for MYTH but they have no say on the content of this video and haven't watched it on advance.

[@AlexReidStudios]

Which of the Pultec emulations sounded better?

[@jonasharp3]

I love every little thing about this update, the clipper is my favorite, but I think Bitwig might have the best stock compressor now, and the Eqs are surprisingly really great as well.

[@AlexReidStudios]

Agree, is a very unique compressor, different from other stock comps on other DAWs

[@buckycore]

They really do have the best stock plugins ever, and those three new additions just went the extra mile.

[@stukedin]

I agree, although I see large cpu spikes when adding compressor+ to a track - anyone else?

[@MIDNIGHTCVLT]

Its amazing how Bitwig is evolving! I wish they add an option to enable linear phase filters on the multiband splits so we can use compressor+ as a proper multiband compressor!

[@AlexReidStudios]

That'd be amazing

[@mashupvital2400]

I would be !

[@AlmerosMusicCode]

Sorry to say, but it's not a multiband compressor. It only has a multiband input detection circuit. The actual compression is single band.

[@buckycore]

​@@AlmerosMusicCodeyeah, Polaris explains that very clearly. Doesn't mean Compressor+ doesn't rule. Man, it's an amazing sound thing. Plus the new EQ

[@Dennacid]

Pultec and this crazy compressor.. Great surprise 🎉🎉

[@AlexReidStudios]

Right? This update seems all about mixing and mastering

[@shaquilleruss1668]

I love bitwig as a company, but i would love if they would update their sampler with slice features and midi scales features like Cubase.

[@AlexReidStudios]

Sampler+ would be great

[@findingneeo7060]

Finally subscribed. Your channel is becoming better and better. Now one of the very best !

[@AlexReidStudios]

Yoo thank you so much!! That means a lot to me

[@billB101]

Worth it for the clipper alone, it's superb.

[@brianbergmusic5288]

These ARE exciting developments. I wonder if I can artificially increase my superstrat's perceived sustain via that compressor's "LIFT" setting 7:44, I'll have to try that out. 8:40 Breakbeat heaven -- that was beautiful!

[@AlexReidStudios]

Thank you! Yeah, I also like this new update a lot

[@MusicMakingEnglishMan]

Awesome vid again, thanks dude, more fun than reading patch notes 😂

[@AlexReidStudios]

Lol haha I know right? Honestly I prefer videos 100% over reading

[@ImaplanetJupiteeeerr]

Auto gain, clipper, keyboard features are all real cool! Also super happy about the gpu processing, nice. A great video like always, here's a lil comment for the algorithm, hope your channel can keep growing! :)

[@AlexReidStudios]

Thank you for the support! Everything counts :)

[@ImaplanetJupiteeeerr]

@@AlexReidStudios Always dude, I wish you a great day today! ^^ ☀️

[@atetraxx]

Compressor seems cool but damn, the multiple bands are a bit confusing. Either way, Super happy to have a glue compressor and soft clipper finally. Auto Gain in chain is also massive.

[@AlexReidStudios]

Yes! The compressor is not too confusing once you get uwed to it, so go for it :)

[@googleuser318]

The new Pultec style EQs are cool, but sounds quite brittle or sharp compared to other emulsions out there which are quite 'smooth' I find.

[@AlexReidStudios]

I find this one more open, the emulations I use are tighter, but not necessarily better or worse

[@buckycore]

Honestly, bitwig is my baby, even if i use Cubase and Reaper for specific projects. But Bitwig is where the spicy sauce and magic happens

[@AlexReidStudios]

I use Reaper when my client needs it. Otherwise I'm a one DAW man

[@buckycore]

I'm a DAW slut TBH, only because I treat different DAWs like different instruments. Bitwig is a prime example of how it's basically an advanced power synth wrapped around a DAW. Like, it's hard for me to grasp people who don't use Bitwig for the synths and plugins. Especially the grid, even if you're just using Presets. The presets are godly!​@@AlexReidStudios

[@alexdiakov_ambient]

💥

[@The_Albanian_Syndicate]

Bitwig is now on sale for 50% off

[@AlexReidStudios]

Yes, it's a good time to get it

[@LabofmusicRecords]

ok, subed and liked now

[@AlexReidStudios]

Thank you!

[@Kkidzz]

Whoa… Deranger Grouse!

[@googleuser318]

I'm curious to know peoples experience with how the new GPU rendering effects performance.

[@AlexReidStudios]

Me too!

[@GillamtheGreatest]

maybe someday they will let me put the devices in patcher

[@buckycore]

You mean like Bitwig as a plugin? Fuck, I would love that! I go between Cubase, Reaper and Bitwig (with a side dish or FL), and I would having Bitwig a plugin like with FL or the Reason Rack.

[@GillamtheGreatest]

@@buckycore i think FL still ships with a plugin version of itself you can use in other daws. but yeah either bitwig as a plugin or their devices as individual plugins

[@clovis991]

Some people are complaining about the fact that it is not indeed a multiband compressor, but i dont think bitwig ever advertised it as one. Thus said, how about dropping 3 instances of the compressor+ into a multiband FX?

[@AlexReidStudios]

Agree. Still a proper multiband could be great. I know it might be something small but for workflow I prefer to see all bands at the same time instead of using the multiband split

[@jonasharp3]

Yeah this is absolutely valid, but people want a multiband dynamics with a nice GUI and an ott preset. I can’t say I blame them, but there’s a bunch of those already, though. Compressor+ is something super unique, and I honestly prefer that.

[@ywenp]

​@@jonasharp3 Strongly agree. Multiband compression is super well covered already, even by purely free VSTs (Cramit by sixthsample for instance) @AlexReidStudios I think that's a UI concern, instead of a call for yet another device. For instance it would be great if container devices had an option to simultaneously show on the Detail panel one "device lane" per slot.

[@vroteg]

Nice to see so many bots in comment cause this update below even bitwigs average… 🤦

[@AlexReidStudios]

What do you think this needed to be a better update? I think the new devices are great

[@vroteg]

@@AlexReidStudiosthe least things bitwig need are devices but more pro features. I have already compressors and eqs and clippers. What I don’t have are professional tools for production and mixing in bitwig.

[@AlexReidStudios]

@@vroteg Like what? Honestly curious, I've seen people saying that but never specify

[@vroteg]

@@AlexReidStudios for production tools like midi comping, scales, automation clips, native pitch correction, time scale brakes etc. Mixing. Plugin manager, track lists, versions, mixer busses, vca, create fades from selected channels etc. Just off the top of my head. I’m sure if I think it through there will be lot more.
