Move over Osmose, there's a new keyboard in town. This REALLY is a game changer 😉 Or, at least it will be once the battery arrives from Amazon...

A little capital investment into your music can go a long way! I just made a deep-dive into my thoughts on play-listing and advertising as an independent music producer. What have you guys found to work?

In today's video, I dive into the drum machines included in the 5.3 Beta version of Bitwig Studio, focusing on the recently added key tracking feature, which allows for more dynamic and varied drum patterns by playing the drum sounds up and down the keyboard. I cover the different drum machines available in Bitwig, such as V0, V1, V8, and V9, and I demonstrate how to create a drum groove from scratch using these instruments. I also dive into the use of the Freq Shifter + effect and various techniques to add complexity and variation to the drum patterns, including using LFOs, step sequencers, and parameter modulation. The tutorial is detailed and aimed at users who want to get the most out of the new features in Bitwig 5.3 Beta 3. Download the project file here 📁

It's not about tools and I don't want to spread the GAS disease, but sometimes a good deal comes around that might not repeat. The best deals are freebies, so feel free to post about some nice free tools too.

The season of deals is all around! What’s the best recent plugin you got that excites you? For me I think it’s true:level by Sonible. It’s helping me learn about mixing and balancing by comparing against reference tracks.
