Making Ambient Music Is Easy in Bitwig Studio 5

In today's video, we look at creating some deliciously evolving and creamy textured pads soundscapes in Bitwig Studio 5. Instead of playing synth patches, if we sample single note recordings of them, we can end up with a rather wonderful sound, where higher notes play not just at higher pitches, but also faster speeds. When the recordings feature movement created by modulation, and they are layered with synths with differing timbres, they create truly remarkable pad sounds. Layering these tonal sounds with textures, such as rain or crickets can help make the sounds that little more unique, especially when used in combination with random modulators changing the start point of every aspect of the patch. Finally, using Next Actions to randomly play "other" chord clips in session view, we can create generative arrangements that will never play the same again. Such fun!

    Hey Taches just wanted to say, thank you very much for continuing your videos on here. I totally understood the need to move to your own mighty network, but was very disappointed to think you wouldn’t be posting anything on here. I personally appreciate this gesture on your part as I know it’s post reading our comments and thoughts. Waiting for the advanced grid course so I can support you that way. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

    Thank you, this is one of the greatest tutorials I've gone through (and yes re-created it painstakingly bit by bit). I've gone through countless videos before (from other artists/teachers), love to learn and yes I put it into practice! I can't put my finger on exactly why this one is so effective at teaching Bitwig, maybe the sheer repetition, the use of modulators, I don't know exactly but I came to the end of this finally seeing music creation the Bitwig way. I think Bitwig has so much to offer that it is just overwhelming, even coming from many years in Logic and Cubase. You have so many freaking nuggets of Bitwig knowledge that I am finding in your videos. I also know you have your "for members" collection of videos too, always keep a few public like this, it is one of your best sales tools! Cheers, I am so pumped up to go create!

    I thought I was following along fine... I created 2 midi tracks of two different pad sounds and held C3 for 16 bars on both of them. When I arm them both they both play. When I play the scene they both play. I grouped them together and that looks like it worked fine. At 1:39, I changed the group setting to "Show Master Track Content". Bouncing in place does not produce an audio waveform. There is no sound. Likewise, creating an empty midi clip and dragging it to the new instrument track's device panel creates a sampler, but there is no audiowave or sounds in that sampler. It is silent. What might this noob be doing wrong? I've tried it on two different computers.

    Hi Tâches - is there a way to do the steal same key effect in Ableton?

  • 10 ай бұрын

    It works by default in Ableton. If you want to turn it off, you can turn R (retrigger) on and it will steal voices :)

    What if you reverse a sample of that truck reversing, so technically it goes forward and introduce it to the track? Un-annoy ambience!

    Making ambient music is easy, period. Just play any sound into a long shimmer reverb. Fart out a squeaky melody into a mic, add some Valhalla, and you're done.
