Creating Granular Rhythms With Bitwig Sampler

A not so quick tutorial on using the textures mode on the Bitwig 3.0 Sampler to manipulate audio to generate rhythms otherwise very difficult to create manually. This technique is particularly useful for creating Microhouse or Rominimal style drums a la Ricardo Villalobos but can be used in an infinite amount of ways when thinking outside the box. I personally love letting my DAW create ideas for me organically so I can dive in, chopping and picking the bits I like as they happen. Happy creating!

Hi Tache, I just found you a few weeks ago and have to say im completely blown away with your experimental techniques. Just downloaded the Bitwig demo yesterday and its the most inspiring software I’ve ever used. Thank you for your knowledge:)
Seeing Andy Murray using Bitwig is great! Jokes aside - great video. Subscribed!
This just might be the best bitwig tutorial
Wow, my favorite new instructor! I've been watching Mr. Frenkie in Russian though I don't understand the language as he, like you, takes me right through bringing things together instead of focusing on just one thing like the arpeggiator. Thanks for getting in the groove and bringing us along.
glad to have one more tutor on the bitwig boat for inspiration, welcome! =) will watch and like all your videos in the next days. liked this one much already.

Found your channel when I had only 16 track Bitwig and you kept using features I didn't have access to. I just found your channel again after getting Bitwig Studio for Black Friday and I'm about to binge watch the whole channel. Cheers.

@ A small tip - if you put tracks into Group you can set their colour to the "mesh" one (bottom right corner) and it will take the colour of the Group whatever you set it to :)
i like hen you waffle, it's always useful tidbits & context
Re: hiding things by deactivating, you can also descend into a group with the button to the left of the track titles

I've never seen Bitwig used this way. I'm usually in the Arranger window rather than the Mix window, but the speed at which you can pick up samples, tweak them, then record them and do more with the results makes me realize I'm seriously under-utilizing the DAW.
Very interesting your creative process.

Similar story as yours, 10+ years Ableton, now a Bitwig guy. It's nothing against Ableton really, it's just that once you get hooked on the Bitwig details like the Modulators, the Grid and all of its possibilities, etc, it's damn near impossible to go back. Loving your videos, keep up the great work.

Been watching coupla your vids, wondering how you started with the 'Twig. (I'm a Twigger from 2014 too). Anyway, this one just started autoplaying, and immediately answered my question. I suggest you re-release/reshoot the first 2:30 of this vid and title it "Why I use Bitwig" or "Why I switched: Bitwig vs Ableton" or similar and you'll get megaviews. IMHO. Now, me back to the Grid 101...

Hey Tache, how did you change the orientation of the launcher? I've noticed your scenes run vertical, with tracks horizontal - ableton style. I searched but couldn't find any info in the manual or online :(
Really good material, looking forward to more unique tutes. Liked: You worked in mix view, cool technique to make beats Disliked: 720p is blurry, camera window covering the sampler device.

Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you so much for the tips! I'm a bit useless when it comes to the actual video MAKING. Do you haven any suggestions of how I would go about sorting out these issues?
