In addition to the new modules, some existing devices have also been treated to an upgrade.

The second, Low-pass MG, is an imitation of a Moog filter and mix bus. First up is Unison, an oscillator that blends three waveshapes into a single output. Version 4.3 brings with it two new modules that can be used in the Polymer synthesizer and the software’s Grid environment. Bitwig’s structure also allows other plug-ins to be inserted into the effect’s feedback loop. A ‘Blur’ control with five different options allows everything from a lightly animated feedback through to a full, blown-out reverb, whilst a ‘Ducking’ parameter helps to keep things under control by lowering the delay level when strong signals arrive. Convolution can also be used in a more experimental way, with users able to drag and drop any audio file onto the interface to be used as an impulse response.ĭelay+ is Bitwig’s latest boutique audio effect, and features some interesting new controls in addition to more familiar delay parameters. Colour and tone controls are provided, and envelopes can be drawn in to reshape the impulses. Two new devices have added in Bitwig Studio 4.3, Convolution and Delay+.Convolution comes equipped with 270 impulse responses that range from 12th-century cathedrals and studio effects to more abstract environments, which Bitwig say allows the device to offer much more than realistic reverbs. Support has also been added for the cutting-edge CLAP plug-in format.

Version 4.3 introduces some new devices in the form of Convolution and Delay+, brings improvements to the software’s flagship synthesizers and adds additional sound content, including an impulse response library and a package of over 100 analogue-inspired presets for Polymer and The Grid. Bitwig have released the latest version of their Bitwig Studio DAW software.
