I was about to comment that line myself, typical musician language with some special polarity music flavour lol

The best of all you don't need to use an expensive synth or browsing thousand of presets. All you have to know is that all filters in bitwig are tuned to C3

Thx for always reminding me how dope Bitwig is 🙏🏻

Sampler is amazing. I just wish it had the Ableton Slice feature (to play slices via the keyboard) and Elastique time-stretching on it. So I can use it for my purposes of using one shots without using synths... It doesn't work so well when you're using a bass one shot and when going higher in pitch it plays faster. Other than that though it's awesome :D

Sweet. Another idea to expand on this is to do it in the grid. There you can add multiple filters and set then to C3, C4, C5, ... to create sounds with more harmonics.

Great tip! Works a treat with vocal samples too. You can have ethereal voices mangled into space bending proportions. Pure sonic madness on 1 track!

Love the thumbnail so much.

naaaisss. thanks so endlessly much. hope you are getting much more views in the future as it is heavily deserved.

Love your videos, and ideas! One thing I noticed is that even with stacked poly voices - your DSP meter didn't even register. I just did some testing on my own, and the sampler is super efficient for making huge sounds.

that's because of the way it works. Applying a single filter to audio is very efficient, as is just playing the sample slower/faster. A lot of Plugins do a LOT more :)

Such a unique perspective... As a long time DAW user who has only recently switched to Bitwig I find myself having my mind blown again and again seeing all of these concepts and custom modulations... I feel bitwig is less of a DAW and more of an audio experiment everytime I open it up... I wish i took on BW many moons ago... Great videos as always...

Bitwig's sampler has to be the best DAW-native Sampler on the market.

Yes, it has fewer features, than let's say Ableton's two samplers have, but I always achieve epic sounds with it in the all playback modes.

Loving Bitwig more and more. Thanks for the cool trick!

This video is so much fucking gold, wow!

This is epic ❤️😎 thank you very much for every cool video you make.

That's such a cool idea. I just did something similar. I ran my pad through a Bit-8 and used the keytrack modulator to modulate its clock.

i could watch your stuff all day long. always so immensely inspiring!! thank you!!!

This is fantastic man, thanks for sharing it

Thank you, Robert! Features good

I do this but in Falcon. That sound would be great in the pluck oscillator.

This is so creative and inspiring. Doing this with all native tools, so awesome thank you!

This sounds so good.

Ur channel is a real eye opener. Thank U!

Great! Thnx a lot!

Wow you really amazed me this time, this is really NICE, you make gems!!!

Wow nice video! I tried it also on a sample and produced a sound that is not even invented in Star Wars. Great job. Thanks!

I prefer to noise up my samples with tape effects, which I often bake in. Now in latest bitwig you can use convolution device to turn this noise into really interesting ambience.

Thanks Polarity!

So in the everlasting spirit of replacing cool plugins with Bitwig’s own facilities, I’ve just tried this technique to recreate a Kontakt library called Harmonic Bloom. It has a tonal layer (nothing special there) and a noise layer, which goes through a bank of 8 resonators, pulling 8 harmonics out of the noise. Sounds really sweet for ambient sound design. The sampler has only one filter, so I've used the Resonator Bank instead, which has 6. (By grouping resonator banks into layers we can of course have any number of harmonics we like). Works lovely, as expected, but there’s one issue: the Resonator Bank is not a filter. It enhances the selected harmonics, extracting playable tones out of the noise, but all the other frequencies of the sample also go through. I can use eq to cut just below the low harmonic and just above the high harmonic, but that’s not going to be keytracked. And then, of course, there are all the frequencies in-between the harmonics, so some of the original noise will always push through. I wonder if there's a better way.

amazing video

saw that video, really cool

Oh, snap! Ableburn!

This is cool

Great idea and sounds! I tried it with resonator bank in the FX slot instead of filter. It also has key tracking but even more resonating frequencies :)

Polarity Music you are right. I guess, a possible workaround would be an fx container with multiple resonators and per note switching but it will become needlessly complicated.

großartig. ich denke meine Entscheidung für bitwig ist gefallen!

Very nice tutorial, could you please make video on how to control expandable rythm please, either with sampler and or echo notes?

Too sick!

"Creating nice sounds from random shit" --> Hell yeah!

My mind=🤯

WTF! genius!

Nice. What would be the best way to tone down those transient sounds that is cutting through from the original sound? I know they're part of the texture and the goal is to have those organic sounds in there but would still be nice to be able to control those.

@PolarityMusic

4 жыл бұрын

as i said in the video, maybe try a steeper q curve (4-pole bandpass) to get more "sine" and less "noise". If needed control the overall amplitude with a limiter :)

Clever but would still benefit from an EQ!

Today I tried to do something similar in The Grid. I ended up using a bunch of SVF filters in a row, set to band pass mode, but the resonance is not narrow enough. Any ideas to get a high resonance band pass filter, or does the SVF filter need additional slope options?

@gabe_owner

The new XP filter device in The Grid gives 2P and 4P bandpass filters. Much more flexible than SVF imo. It's like the Ladder device, I think.

I want to see you make an entire song with only 1 sound using only the sampler on each track. I know you can do it

hey guys, grab a free Izotope Ozone 9 Elements plugin from Splice now!

I'm not sure where else to ask this, but does Bitwig have a way to send cues from a live set to visual programs like TouchDesigner, Synesthesia, or Resolume?

Anybody know how to trigger polyphonic pan each time the sample is triggered? Seems like the sample pan knob is global at all times which sucks.

Use a polyphonic Modulator and the modulation is polyphonic

For me as a newbie, I didn't really know what the keytrack in the filter section did. It never occurred to me that you can use the filter to change the pitch without having to enable the sampler key tracking.

It's the polyphonic filter with keytrack for each voice in the sampler. I'm not sure that this is pretty common.

Bitwig: Anything you can do I can do better Ableton: we'll see, we'll see. Ok, I agree, you do it better. Maybe 11 will fix that.

СПАСИБО

I wouldn't say this is an overlooked Sampler feature in Bitwig or is anyway better than many an other solution. Many a sample player or instrument that takes samples can do this if the filter can resonant and has pitch tracking - which I guess is most of them. In Ableton both the Simpler and Sampler do a better job of this, Simpler can also warp the Sample for pitch. Plus both have 5 filter modes and 4 with filter drive. I also do this in Serum by dropping an ambient sample on the noise generator, which is actually a sampler. And Serum has a great selection of filters to choose from. I use Pigments 2 which has some great filters for doing this also. And a choice selection is the the powerful MSoundFactory for endless ways of setting up something like this. I would say those 5 samplers/instruments do a better job of this, just by having more filter options and the level of control over the filter in an internal sampler/instrument. But i saw the video you talk about, and she was in the process of sound design and resampling, effecting the samples while pitching on the track, and was likely using the EQ Eight for a finer level of Q control and also being able to control and balance of the other frequencies in relation to what was being resonated - she wasn't trying to do or incapable doing what you are showing here. And here is the link to the video we reference, that you failed to supply a link to in your show notes: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mqB-pbWmctu4YLg.html
