Bitwig’s versatile design makes it easy to use – whatever your style
Sketch ideas quickly, improvise and perform, or go deep into the details on the Arranger timeline.
Notes That Do More Our notes are dynamic, allowing micro-pitch, pressure, panning, and more for each individual note. So get true polyphony from Bitwig's instruments, or send notes as MPE or CV signals. Add some musical logic with Operators, which modulate when and how notes play. In Bitwig Studio, notes and audio work in harmony. Hybrid tracks accommodate both for a frictionless workflow. In addition to the powerful piano roll – with key signature support – layered editors let you see any combination of material side-by-side.
Audio That Works For You
Bitwig makes it easy to record onto the Arranger timeline or straight into the Clip Launcher. Whichever you choose, capture your best takes with Bitwig’s fluid comping system. And when the tempo changes, your audio will match it, courtesy of time-stretching options from us and Zplane.
Bitwig offers advanced editing features to shape audio in both the timeline and Clip Launcher. Edits can be made within clips: split at onsets, repitch with curves, scale, stretch, and more. And create structure with clip aliases, which connect alike clips across your track. No more endless copy-pasting.

Advanced Automation System
Bitwig makes automation both speedy and creative. Apply it directly to tracks, or use automation clips for extra options: independent looping and start times, clip stretching, clip aliases, and more. When editing automation, enhanced gestures and tools help you get results fast, while innovative behaviors like spread and hold open up new possibilities.
World-Class Instruments and Effects
From classics done right to unique devices at the cutting edge, Bitwig Studio features a vast and ever-growing device library. Get a taste of the 140+ instruments, audio and note FX, container devices, and signal routers that will translate your ideas into compelling sound.
Polymer
Like many things in Bitwig Studio, Polymer is quick and easy to use – with a depth and flexibility that will keep you coming back. Based in The Grid, this polysynth lets you mix and match oscillators, filters, and envelope generators to create the instrument of your dreams.
Phase-4
Meet Phase-4, a four-oscillator synthesizer powered by phase modulation and phase distortion. This unique synth can do classic, modern, and beyond.
Sampler
The Bitwig Studio Sampler is a powerful tool for playing and manipulating audio. It boasts several playback modes, advanced looping features with crossfades, endless modulation possibilities, a massive multisample editor, and more.
Drum Instruments
With Bitwig Studio, you’re never short on drums. Play hundreds of preset kits – or easily create your own – with Drum Machine. Or sculpt your hits with a suite of dozens of drum synthesizers, including models of iconic drum sounds alongside more unusual devices.
EQs and Filters
Whether you need precision or flavor, Bitwig Studio has a pro-grade EQ for the job. Clean up your sound with EQ+, a feature-packed graphical equalizer, and bring natural musicality with EQs inspired by classic hardware. Sculpt sound further with a range of filtering FX, and add juicy waveshaping with the semi-modular Filter+ and Sweep.

Audio FX
Bitwig Studio gives you plenty more ways to shape your audio. Harness reverb and delay, powerful distortion, lush modulation effects, and more – plus workflow-enhancing container devices to bring them all together.
Note FX
There are countless options for transforming notes, too. Sequence, arpeggiate, randomize, snap your playing to the project’s key (or a microtonal scale), and create wild rhythms with Dribble and Ricochet.
Spectral Suite
Get a whole new angle on your sound with four devices that separate audio into its component parts: Transient Split, Freq Split, Loud Split, and Harmonic Split. The innovative Spectral Suite can handle mixing tasks in powerful new ways, or expand the frontiers of your sound design.
A Vast Library of Presets and Sounds
Bitwig comes with thousands of presets, clips, and samples right out of the box. Use our sound library to stock up on high-quality loops and hits, unlock the full potential of Bitwig devices, or find inspiring starting points for your next track.
The Perfect Companion to Your Hardware
Bitwig’s hardware integration features give you the best of two worlds. Use Bitwig Studio to sequence, sync, and control your gear, or let your hardware steer Bitwig Studio, via MIDI, CC, CV, Gate, analog and MIDI Clock, and MIDI Timecode. Create the perfect setup with flexible, truly native tools that will scale with your needs.
Built on Modern Foundations
Building a DAW from the ground up allowed us to solve old problems in new ways. Bitwig’s unique architecture enables fast performance and unparalleled stability, even with highly complex projects. Modern features offer a workflow boost, too: Open multiple projects at once, use more than one audio interface at the same time, and enjoy Bitwig-supported open formats such as CLAP (the plug-in standard) and DAWproject.
