Bitwig Studio

The sequencer that allows collaborative work

One of the most awaited DAWs is finally here. It goes by the name of Bitwig Studio, and at first sight it seems very similar to Ableton Live. Just like the latter, it also incorporates a linear and non-linear clip view where we can sequence tracks, as well as audio and MIDI recording, editing and mixing functions, and other options such as automation or support for VST plug-ins.

Collaborative music creation

The truth is that Bitwig Studio offers elements that no other program in its field had ever offered before: great customization capacity on behalf of the user and the possibility to work collaboratively with other users on the Internet, being compatible with versions installed on other platforms such as Linux or Mac.
