How To Make A Cartesian Sequencer in Bitwig Grid

[@DashGlitch]

Can you guess the Eurorack module that inspired this? We will be developing this idea into something closer to that in next weeks video!

rene!

Maths :D

[@degstep9968]

Your tutorials are brilliant, long live Dash Glitch!

[@gylp2]

I recreatet THIS and used THIS seqvencer when making a ambient track its smoking 🔥

[@fernandomanqueo9901]

You can use a subtract module to invert the Y output

[@tomwatson7626]

Ooooh I wonder what that eurorack module could be?? Des-can't even imagine it! I'll see myself out...

[@degstep9968]

Thank you very much!!!

[@Eueqorogu]

Awesome subject! Can't wait!,

[@earthlyng_official4599]

What in the world

[@cryptout]

Really awesome 👏

[@apricotdog]

Wow, love this!

[@dozicusmaximus]

Nice work!

[@chitlun]

This is brilliant! I just wish my brain didn’t melt every time I try do anything in the Grid. I’ve used VCV very successfully for years and have a reasonable hardware setup but, for some reason, I just cannot get along with the Grid. I will be following along with this though and will try build it. Cheers man ✌️

[@DashGlitch]

I had this at first, but try to think of grid more like a designer for single modules as oppose to entire systems, this really helped me understand it. The DAW itself will act as your entire system, while Grid will act more like something like electrosmith daisy - I hope that makes sense, and good luck!

[@chitlun]

@@DashGlitch Cheers dude. I have a René V1 in my rack as it happens but I’d love the V2… Amazing sequencer!

[@AlexanderCook87]

Man the moment i heard Pythagoras I was like fk I shouldnt have started drinking before i started this tutorial

[@adamarmstrong9408]

Just in time 👍

[@greggsonic]

Rad vid. Had a lot of fun making it, can't do t0o much voice stacking on an oldish Mac but tweaked it in other ways using Euclid note repeat with octaves. Thanks for that!

[@MrChrisanova]

just wow 🙂 Thx Dash

[@Emily_M81]

I really need to dig deeper into The Grid again. I got lax and have forgotten so much >_> thanks for sharing!

[@rosslansberg6323]

Keen to be reminded that i brought the wrong DAW😅

[@Emily_M81]

throw money at it. that will solve the problem lol (and Thomann has it for $300)

[@buckycore]

1:26 That's what the land of dreams sound like 😍😍 so beautiful and magical

[@rosslansberg6323]

I got no money lol

[@muzy8768]

Im case you have fl studio... theres a way to do the same even simpler

[@rosslansberg6323]

@muzy8768 I thought there was but is there a name for the thing?

[@Dejan_RC]

👍

[@sacredgeometry]

re the module: Im guessing some sorta mutable instruments thing?

[@dozicusmaximus]

[@Italliving]

Very interesting indeed, just wondering why you add a modulator on the LFO's as they already have one at 9:35 or is it just for an extra visual on the modulation?

[@DashGlitch]

It will make sense in the next video (from yestereday) to be able to merge/switch :)

[@Italliving]

indeed it does ;-) @@DashGlitch

[@Megallicafan18]

would it be possible to map the X/Y values of those grids to different MIDI messages? so that I can have it hooked up to different parameters in a hardware synth?

[@DashGlitch]

Yep, just send CC messages instead of pitch and velocity etc :)

[@buckycore]

MAN, this is so rad. This actually was my solution for a sound design scenario in this audio drama I'm working on. The character morphs into various speaking voices ranging in age, genders (or non genders), accents, timbres and so on. The basic idea was to have recordings of me and a bunch of AI people say the same lines of dialog, but then to drift them in and out randomly. So, I recreated this in an FX Grid on a group track with 16 audio files, replaced the pitch modules with Audio SIde chains and VIOLA! My morphing dialog track will be exactly how I envisioned. I only have one question: Is there a means to have modulation sources be randomly selected. Meaning, instead of the standard LFOs, I'm using Curves as I like the more chaotic, organic quality. however, it would be nice to be able swap various curve shapes on the X and Y so it's constantly changing not following a certain pattern through out.

[@DashGlitch]

That's an awesome idea, and that morphing with sidechain inputs gives me more ideas, thanks!! WRT to chaos, try replacing the LFOs with Random generators, next weeks video I have come up with various "animations" for the movement, including a snake pattern and a ping-pong xD

[@buckycore]

​@@DashGlitchoh my, God I can't wait!!!

[@opipico9144]

can i use midi controler for this?

[@DashGlitch]

Yes you can modulate the XY with any MIDI or modulator :)

[@furkansafak3]

Is there a way we can fix the probabilities to a certain key? Or I missed that in the video? 🤔

[@DashGlitch]

Hey dude, I didn't figure that out, for reference I think that style of probability on values is called "stochastic" sequencing?

[@furkansafak3]

@@DashGlitch thanks so much for your reply! I will dig into this more soon. GREAT VIDEO by the way :)

[@Renato.P]

How can I enable voice stacking? When I put the modulator it says I have to enable voice stacking in device (only on instruments) .I couldn't figure it out. Thanks for any clarification guys :)

[@DashGlitch]

in the device inspector, below the voice count

[@Renato.P]

@@DashGlitch got it, I don't know how I overlooked it... Thx, Dash ;)

[@Heshamelfakharani]

i dont understand why you morphed the x output with the merged pitched outputs. can you please explain that?

[@DashGlitch]

rephrase question please, don't fully understand. Are you asking about the "add" module?

[@Heshamelfakharani]

@@DashGlitch the step before that, we were only getting read outs from the y position then you added a 5th merge module and connected the output of all the merged pitches to it, I'm not sure I understand what that was for. my guess is that with each merge module we are cycling vertically in the columns but the with the final one we are cycling the rows.

[@DashGlitch]

@@Heshamelfakharani Yes, that's for the Y co-ordinate.

[@Heshamelfakharani]

@@DashGlitch thank you, appreciate you making grid tutorials

[@MrSonicAlchemy]

Really cool idea! Thanks so much for sharing! I'm looking forward to experimenting with this.
