This is awesome. I like me switching from Live more and more with each video from you I watch.😄

[@eartho]

I've been meaning to ask you about making this exact video, so thank you for reading my mind!

[@alexandernevsky5055]

Polarity, you're super good! Keep it up. I wish you to keep your interest and enthusiasm for many years to come.

[@PolarityMusic]

I wont stop!

[@Super-id7bq]

This is a great concept. I'd love to see you do a more clear and concise version of this as it was very hard to follow along with due to getting distracted with incidental parts of the process that might not have been necessarily in the correct order. Still appreciate the guide though :)

correction: envelope's 'affect voicelifetime' doesn't do any input analysis, it just keeps voice alive for sum duration of whole envelope based on it's timings. basically it stops keeping voice alive as soon as last stage is finished.

Рад, что ты продолжаешь исследовать, изучать интересные схемы Битвига. И Тебе желаю и дальше поддерживать свой любознательный энтузиазм :-)

I love the grid content!!!

Always interesting!

thanks! 🥰

Thanks Polarity!

[@barrywilliams8289]

keep on educating me thanks

[@wilfig]

In August, Bitwig is offering another training certification workshop. I'd love to take it, but when I see great content like this, Taches, Venus Theory, and Thavius Beck, I just wonder what in the world could I possibly offer as a certified Bitwig guy?

[@PolarityMusic]

I mean its just a title/label in the end. You have to bring in your own creativity to the table and come up with something :) Im sure you have had some unique expiriences in the past that can you can teach people about!

[@michaelbueno5853]

Is not about the man just take the course for yourself you don't need to prove anything to no one , besides polarity is a special individual , the for some reason bitwig really fits his creative process and sound design approach , Taches is a very corious kid and found mostly everything by accident just playing with bitwig , but you can focus on teaching bitwig like really just teaching the program and what's expected and what you can do with it, the would be very much appreciate it man Also ...

[@vetiarvind]

wow you're talented!

[@Joborges10]

This is awesome Polarity! Just seeing your videos and becoming a fan of your work! thanks for the great content. Let me ask you something: At the end, you put pitch quantizers before each voices. Is there a way that, instead of use the grid piano roll for the notes, make the same patch with the pitch input driven by realtime midi input? I would like to achieve kind of same result but where the notes useds will be input in real time by me playing in a midi controller. Could the patch dynamically understand and split the voices like so: when I play just one voice it plays the line one, then 2 voices it add the second line, and then the 3rd ans so on, but when I release some of the notes of the chord, it understands that the 1st voice, for ex, need to stay playing the 1st line? Thanks in advance.

[@calamalabar]

I've been trying to do the same, using input notes and applying different treatments based on position of the note within the chord (lowest, 2nd, 3rd ...). I think we are missing a "note/voice number" grid module to really do that. But I think Polarity's trick in this video is really smart, using the module polyphony and having a crude note/voice selector based on note pitch values. It requires some adjustment of the gain to play in different parts of the keyboard but kind of works. One thing I've been expanding on this video's example is to add the output of the pitches modules to the input note from keyboard (you need to disable note thru on the polygrid inspector to avoid double notes). This allows to enrich each note of a chord with different note offsets in time.

[@xavierxook5848]

Thanks man!

[@vrtvp3]

Polyphony in the grid has always seemed to me something incomprehensible. Thanks for bringing me closer to this. As I understood from the video, 8 voices - the maximum number of voices (corresponds to the merge device)? Or is it possible to insert another merge device into one of the merge connectors, for example? :)

[@lyrex100]

thank you!

[@PatternMusic]

You lost me at about 8:30. I can't get both notes running in opposite directions.

[@PolarityMusic]

okay, maybe recheck all settings. it should work :=)

[@Wheel333]

Nice 🙏

[@septuleptum]

This workflow is highly counterintuitive, i must say. I’m not saying that you did something wrong here, but rather the guys from Bitwig implemented a strange way of doing things.

[@PolarityMusic]

you don’t have to do it that way.
