can you create unlimited percussions stems with this bitwig trick??

[@KutAnimus]

10:42 - "The only downside ... that the polygrid doesn't save the generated values" Yep and I really hope people are requesting this feature. It would be really great if I could build random generators and then save the devices as presets. I think you mentioned this in one of your previous videos as well.

[@renslaboratory16291]

u should be able to just save the diced settings as a preset of the instrument ? if u want to use the diced setting on other intruments it wouldnt work oc

[@Italliving]

4 years later do you still believe you can't save these presets ?

[@balrojmusic]

Man you just open my eyes to a new world of randomization, this video is amazing.

[@brewland]

You always deliver top notch quality.

[@briancase6180]

This is totally cool. It's a very bitwig way to do what Tom Hades teaches in some of his master-class videos. He uses discrete sequencer devices to make polyrhythms for his percussion loops, but this seems, as is usually the case with bitwig, more versatile and fun. Thanks!

[@JosephEarly]

Nice! I was looking to see how Bitwig native devices could compare to a vst like Playbeat, this is great

[@briancase6180]

Also, try using the dice (random) modulator with the note delay device (set to 1/16) to get some very nice random swing (you modulate the offset parameter with the random modulator). I've used that to great benefit. You can then add a dice modulator to the pitch to get some additional kind of swing. I've used this with the sampler "speed" parameter, but there are many options to try. It works really well. The drum machine preset TECH-HOUSE KIT 2 (and I'm sure other kits too) has some percussion sounds set up perfectly with device chains (containing distortion, delay, etc ready for random modulating) that gives nice results when you add dice modulators to various parameters.... I don't bother to bounce to audio with this technique; is gives the same results every time (very nice).

[@sub-jec-tiv]

This is a great idea thank you

[@alexrampol909]

thanks for the tip, i really enjoy bitwig 4 now , it's another world from version 1

[@orhanylmaz8145]

Now you pave the way to Boris minimal techno... great job.

[@tetkiktedavi1674]

excellent idea, thanks for this nice tutorial!

[@paradoxic1888]

Thanks for the tips. I tried something similar but without the Grid, and your way is much more intuitive. Keep it coming.

[@PolarityMusic]

Yea you can also utilize the random modulators and do the same without the grid. It's a bit different but kind of the same outcome.

[@ExpeditionCirkus]

Incredibly inspiring video, very creative usage of Bitwig!

[@PolarityMusic]

thanks! :)

[@molekyl5098]

Supernice tutorial as always! I will try something like this out tonight! Thank you so much!

[@nomad1517]

Bit wig looks like a mix between a video game from nintendo, and a daw. I love it.

[@Alckemy]

Great tut polarity! will definitely make this later and throw my kind of processing on it

[@PolarityMusic]

Have fun!

[@owlmega-101]

I thought "Trigger" should be more intuitive to toggle a set of new generated values (so we don't have to click twice). But then I found out that Trigger cannot be modulated by "Button". I guess Bitwig should make a toggle type modulator in addition to now only latch, or maybe have an option to make a Button behave like toggle.

[@lucienmontandon8003]

super nice. thanks!

[@joverdievel6727]

i'm having trouble with the 'bounce', even though i'm doing it exactly like in the video I always get the same kind of dull sound. Could anyboby explain it to me?

[@TheSchmalzlock]

ich find dich mega sympatisch. danke fürs Tutorial!

[@PolarityMusic]

danke fürs feedback!

[@hinsen]

Hey. You are a German music producer right? Do you know what hardware and music software were used by the German music producers Eurodance, Happy Hardcore, Rave etc in the 90s? I am looking for techniques to recreate Eurodance sounds, (leads, synths) especially from the years 1992-1996.

[@gabrielegelfofx]

nice! Is it possible to replicate the Moog Subharmonicon sequencer architecture with Bitwig?

[@gaudinni]

Great, thanks Polarity!

[@PolarityMusic]

hey gaudinni, thanks for tuning in :)

[@drivingwithlee6550]

Is this available as a free download to use in are arrangements

[@andreasbollden]

Yes please

[@nojoe3000]

[@mrpotatohead2919]

I highly recommend making it yourself. He has showed you how, so it should be very easy, and more importantly you will learn how to do it and possibly inspire you to develop it further with your own personal modifications.

[@drivingwithlee6550]

@@mrpotatohead2919 thats a good point. Trouble with me is i lack the inspiration and patience to do things like this myself. :)

[@freetimeprojex]

superb sir. just superb.

[@KNHSynths]

I was asking to myself if there is a way to put the dices directly into the device and to sync them without using the Grid. Is there a way to do this or the Grid is the only solution ?

[@Fedor_Tkachev_Music]

brilliant!

[@pbrninja19]

Polarity published this video way back when he was still in the Beastie Boys.

[@findjonmoses]

Hey Polarity, would it be possible to use midi notes to allow you to sequence the pressing of the "generate" button?

[@findjonmoses]

ok, ok, I just replaced the button with a gate module and now I can trigger the generation of new tom sounds in time with the music via midi notes.

[@PolarityMusic]

:D endless fun

[@findjonmoses]

@Polarity Music your videos are very inspiring, making me want to give up may day job as a developer and just make music with Bitwig

[@audiomon]

Gold!

[@drivingwithlee6550]

Fantastic

[@cryptout]

Here’s a tip for you, start your awesome videos with “here’s what we’ll create” and play a shot piece of the end result. ❤

[@PolarityMusic]

i usually dont edit. i just record in one go and upload 🤣

[@bci3937]

Es ist dein Video du kannst tun was du willst :D

[@PolarityMusic]

richtig :D

[@justinheat1]

only DAW to not crash every 5 mins...

[@NeonPLotus]

You look weird without a goatee 😹😂🤣

[@PolarityMusic]

goatee is coming back soon :D

[@СтаниславР-в7и]

Amazing
