Richie Hawtin's Live Setup Using Bitwig Studio

[@OdoSendaidokai]

That's something i really like with Bitwig, like you said is the open approach from controllers to the DAW. That's so great and so much fun to play with. 🌻

[@claudiuvalentinmusic]

I follow Richie for a long time, also what I see in this video it tell me are years of work..

[@nomad1517]

I wish Bitwig had more live performance videos. I feel it's really lacking in that department. If people saw what it could do live, and how DJs and live acts could incorporate it to their arsenal, they would have a lot more recognition.

[@timgilligan3885]

Some interesting ones would be good!

[@ataturu]

There is a lot of potential here but until they integrate basic stuff like better Midi cc translation and complete Midi I/O support, most producers and DJs will stay away from it.

[@HammyHavoc]

​@@ataturuNot dug into Bitwig yet, but what's missing MIDI-wise?

[@docjoesweeney]

That is an amazing set up! Living in the moment... perfect

[@fkthewhat]

"I hope people will shape it and redevelop it" - I dunno man... Your stuff is truly next level! I can't even begin to think how I could make this my setup (but I am a luddite that still likes vinyl, so...)

[@blackout2able]

Try stop drogs

[@frankie5671]

What's done is cut ip the launchpad to view different functions 8n ableton novation allows you to do much of that as do bitwig

[@joro7656]

My head just blew up.. You would need 6 hours a day for a year to get to this guys level Maybe more I would quit after one hour

[@ondrejk.6415]

Clever setup!Looking forward to see it live next week

[@aki_gong6271]

Always good to learn from the masters :) thanks for sharing!

[@joro7656]

You must have a quick brain because I couldn't grasp anything in this video. No depth .. Just surface knowledge..

[@wessmithp5560]

Saw him once love in NYC, so dope, keep sending it Richie😎🤙🏼

[@andrewbyrd5531]

Brother your from another planet cause your music and set ups are out of this world...I've been listening to you for quite some time and I love your mixing skills...Your sick Richie...Always have been always will be.

[@user82938]

Nice of him to release it.

[@MichaMichelsens]

thanks for this great inspiration - its awesome what you're doing with the launchpad and the clips.

[@mikelo303]

One word. Respect.

[@druhawks]

I dig how the video starts out with him dropping his philosophy on this...well said.....dope

[@usaroman]

Been looking for a hybrid system that would have this Ritchie setup as a foundation and modular analog sequencers and a Minimoog to boot. Thanks for the inspiration and deconstruction of your work flow and sounds. Love it... "

[@faridvargas8881]

What a great guy Thanks for sharing!

[@brownerthanu]

Very cool. Can't wait to try this out.

[@andrewdickinson1981]

saw you in Milan, amazing!

[@ferranpujolcamins]

If Bitwig adds new features that allows him to ditch tracktor that would be game changer

[@albird_official]

Great...will definitely check this one out!

[@Oooo-bi7bi]

I appreciate you sharing your technique.

[@dy2554]

Goodness Richie..., what you're showing here is great and it's really happening to you...! World class 👍 I would like to ask about the K 2 mapping from you 😎 Is there a way to get there 👉 that would be very cool of you 🙏 Best regards 😎

[@balrojmusic]

Amazing stuff!!!!

[@TheMindmachines]

What is the Setup here? Display? Mac mini?

[@Ммо-и9ю]

does anyone have similar script for launchpad pro in ableton?

I want it since almost 2 years :_(

[@CapitalK01]

I'm interested in how the audio and tempo are sent from Tratkor to Bitwig. Ideally I want to run the tracks and tempo from Traktor, and send the tempo and audio into Bitwig where I use a selection of effects over the Traktor audio, tempo sync'd to Traktor, and recording it all in Bitwig.

[@ChrisBartholomewMusic]

Tempo wise I think it's all happening with Ableton Link. Audio's a bit more complex - but basically I think they're both running on the same interface into the the Model 1 mixer, then the outputs from the mixer (which has built in send and returns) are plugged back into the interface. You could mimic something like it with Blackhole audio router with software only!

[@NexuJin]

Ableton Link for tempo sync. Send/return channel in the DAW (BitWig/Ableton Live/etc..) or on the DJ mixer.

[@RandomGamesHDPlay]

@@NexuJin Tell me please which reverb plugin he used in period 2013-2016 before the model 1? It had massive sound and I think it was not just simple Ableton vrb because I cant get desirable result with it. Plugin that he use now is crappy imho

[@NexuJin]

@@RandomGamesHDPlay 🤷‍♂

[@nocodecreative]

I've been trying to integrate Bitwig and Traktor for a while but still haven't found a great solution - can anyone shed any insight into the routing of this set-up?

[@cyrusjulian187]

+1

[@reno5159]

Might need to use two laptops? Probs quite a lot of overhead running two bits of software at the same time. Just put one or two of ur dvs channels/cdjs into the mixer

[@dimesdede]

Should be no big problem, syncing them with Ableton link. And both use my RME babyface.

[@nocodecreative]

Managed to get it working using ASIO Link Pro, I now have everything running through the soundcard and mixer on my S4 MK3, hosted to bitwig with an apc40 and machine mikro using driven by moss scripts 👌🏾. Might do a video

[@VarionJimmy]

Very interesting to see!

[@SK-mb2sk]

Basically a Circuit Tracks.

[@stefanhansen5882]

Super interesting! How difficult is it to make a script for Bitwig and the Launchpad?

[@kisho2679]

which is currently the best hardware reliable controller for Bitwig for live performances?

[@mykemuyska8683]

Also for the Allen and Heath Xone:K2 ?

[@toni_hitman]

How can I create a 16 Sequencer in the Custom Mode on the Launchpad?

[@NoobSaibot-v9n]

Name of track please it’s really awesome

[@cyrusjulian187]

I love this man

[@billB101]

Nice. How do you get the effects panel to appear at the top of window?

[@sacconazloomian2286]

So It's midi Synched to Traktor of course?

[@cryptout]

It makes sense imo.

[@gfearon9091]

Can all of this be programed the same using an ableton push 2?

[@VAKABULARDJ]

What the Tablet (Screen) is that?

[@riveradj4747]

qe tablet usa lo saveis

[@harungming1522]

Worked, thx

[@frankie5671]

How does he get the audio playing from traktor into bitwig ?

[@renechang2406]

This set is good for techno tech house prog house etc

[@haroldharris145]

Is he using an external monitor for the screen in front of the mixer?

[@remil78]

Any idea on wich computer or tablet Richie use?

[@infesticon]

This is pretty inspiring stuff. So does any one if tracktor and bitwig have the equiverlent of ableton link?

[@taylorlinkfield4556]

Yes. I've been able to sync them. its best to route the audio externally. Internal audio routing leads to latency and drift issues.

[@michaels5166]

Go Mr. Hawtin...

[@Its303AcidBass]

Whats up with the screen attached to Model 1?

[@donag.]

d'you use all that buttons in sets?

[@richardtolin]

Is he using 15.6" external monitor? what brand? any idea, anyone?

[@AlexeyFilippenkoPlummet]

Better Call Richie

[@troyouttram]

Is there any launchpad xl scripts?

[@cyrusjulian187]

YES! I'm a noob with scripts so was assuming this script could also be used with LXL. I guess we'll have to go buy the more expensive launchpads :(

[@sebbosebbo9794]

give him a groove Pool and a control over that for the clips.....for quantizing control Realtime...Live have a groovepool but not midicontrolable..

[@sjcongo]

I m a logic user but bitwig seems my nr2 option daw

[@anyoneanyone28]

If Bitwig had free upgrades for life like FL Studio they would get a lot of conversions. Even just discounted upgrades would be great.

[@fich1111]

You pay a one off fee for a year's worth of upgrades even if its a major version upgrade, its cheaper than most other daw upgrades, it's not a requirement, if you don't pay, you still keep what you've paid for, and upgrade plans are discounted usually on black Friday and sometimes other sales throughout the year. When I switched from fl I wasn't keen on the idea, was using fl since its inception and only switched to bw 2 years ago, but using fl now feels dated and clunky, bw is so much better

[@odomobo]

Businesses need to use a monetization model that will ensure they make enough money so they can afford to keep developing a great product. I think bitwig's approach is good from that perspective.

[@anyoneanyone28]

​@@odomobo I agree. I wonder how Image Line make it work? Anyway, that would be the thing that would make me move to Bitwig.

[@odomobo]

@@anyoneanyone28 I also wonder how image line makes it work... but they are still in business

[@edglue6138]

Madwig on bitwig

[@PylonRecordsdotcom]

We need a controller designed by someone who understand workflows, studio and live, and then integrate Bitwig into it, a controller with lot of knobs, fader, touch sliders, velocity sensitive pads that way we get away from the mouse , maybe the controller can be in blocks, or have a proper IOS support, this DAW is just ready to explode.

[@mykemuyska8683]

Are the scripts available for public???

[@SameMan020]

Yes they are. In the description you have a link and instructions for lunchpad pro

[@Zagoorland]

whats the name of the first track?

[@leonnaffin]

Will this work with push2 as well?

[@dhst76]

Yes, it does. No experience with it though as I'm on Ableton. Google on Driven by Moss Push Bitwig and see the source: github.com/git-moss/DrivenByMoss-Documentation/blob/master/Ableton/Ableton-Push.md

[@thegroove2000]

Bitwig is a solid app but needs more work. The sampler is woefully inadequate for one. Where is the time stretching?

[@thegroove2000]

It would be great if like Presonus studio but better audio and midi can be dragged and dropped and vice versa from clips etc into devices. That would be a fantastic Speed up the creative process and workflow.

[@waytospergtherebro]

Who?

[@TLEM2019music]

這超酷🙌🙌👍👍

[@maiconlmota]

Simply nobody says how to configure and make the keyboard simply work, use the timbres in BITWIG... that is, just connect and output sound... the Nektar gx61 for example, doesn't emit any sound, at least I can't use it, I and so many other users, for lack of a decent tutorial, (We bought Nektar, which comes with BITWIG and it just doesn't work) PLEASE MAKE A TUTORIAL TEACHING HOW TO CONFIGURE AND MAKE NEKTAR USUAL WITH BITWIG...

[@mynameistechno]

He is talking about Polymeter not Polyrhythm.

[@DelasVC]

This is why Richie is where he is. I don't enjoy his current style of music so much but this guy is just too far ahead..

[@umutcoskun4247]

Exactly my thought. His earlier music was more chill somehow.. maybe I just don't get his current music yet.. I don't know

[@DelasVC]

@@umutcoskun4247 Idk. This is just speculation but you have to see that they have quite extensive businesses. A lot of peoples livelihoods are dependent on him going on. So he‘s probably also going with what‘s mainstream these days - at least to a degree..

[@umutcoskun4247]

@@DelasVC I see. Never thought of that. But makes totally sense. Because the music he makes now sounds exactly like the music what people think of when they hear of the word "Techno". His music used to be a bit more minimalistic. However, it would be kind of sad if he makes his music 100% based on mainstream opinion. That would be my biggest nightmare as an artist.

[@DelasVC]

@@umutcoskun4247 I‘m sure it‘s not 100%, but for some reason they all play „harder“ music these days and people go completely nuts for it! I‘d say this is partly because of taste but also partly because the mainstream just reacts so well to it these days..

[@djmadwax]

Funny hearing this generations perspective because for me he finally came back home and I’m hearing proper techno again. I hated that boring slow plodding stuff and you guys love it. It’s all good - glad we have him around

[@letsgodancin1]

Although I respect what he does, the fact is that 99% of people on the dancefloor have no idea what he is doing when performing..

[@jerdie]

I hear ya, but if you think about it from the perspective of the performer, this is really fun for them.

[@forestsunset9617]

why doesn't he just play a track and pretend he is doing something like most djs? ;-)

Is the source code for these scripts available or only the binary .bwextension (java jar).
