Basic arpegiator that outputs one note at a time in a sequence from a held chord. Phase modules can be used to alter sequencing, etc. Additioinally audio or note sidechain can be used for rhythmic groove of the arp.

New version of my custom arp made in Grid. supports audio/note sidechain input for rhythmic groove. when nothing plays from those after set fallback period, reverts to normal arp (16ths by default)

Quantizes incoming notes to chosen audio source as a groove source, by extracting transients from it and using them as clock source. See info inside the patch, set Groove audio source in Transient Control device inside Pre-FX chain

inspired by another video of Polarity on groove quantization, my refined approach to syncing notes to audio on another track. see thread for details https://discord.com/channels/121395249003233280/1176197798421606462

makes a polyphonic stringified version of incoming sound. needs note input to work See remote controls for key parameters to ajdust.

Polyphonic FX that adds string-like characteristic to your sound. Needs note input, so either you need to put Note receiver if used on audio track, to play this as instrument, or it'll just work if you put it right after instrument, given the notes are passing through.

DIY clipper for study Ventolin type settings

the custom made clipper in FX Grid, with optional self-ringing filter that makes a Ventolin-kind of distortion to incoming sound, demo can be found here: https://discord.com/channels/121395249003233280/298769583769387008/1138934071645438052

This patch allows using sostenuto pedal (or signal) on any instruments that may not support it natively (it will sustain notes that were held when pedal was pressed, but not affect new notes after it, and will release sustain as pedal releases). If your sostenuto pedal uses specific CC message, set it accordingly in top-left corner of the patch. Check the notes in the patch on how it works.

After much discussion I've finally figured out that this patch I've made is for Sostenuto effect specifically, and not usual Sustain pedal action.

If your sustain pedal uses specific CC message, set it accordingly in top-left corner of the patch. This patch allows using sustain pedal on any instruments that may not support it natively (it will sustain notes that were held when pedal was pressed, but not affect new notes after it, and will release sustain as pedal releases).

Example patch using drawable OSC and LFO techniques, explore, learn and improve on it, or just use as is! I've used WolfShaper plugin as shaper for demonstration, it's free (find on Github), but you can also use MWaveShaper if you want in it's place, look at notes in the patch for more details.

Example patch that makes use of waveshapers (which can behave like MSEG) to create custom OSC and LFO shapes and apply them polyphonically in Poly Grid. Beware - this technique can be a bit CPU intense. Took me a while to prep this for public usage (including some notes and instructions on how it works), default requirement is WolfShaper plugin that you can find on Github. or you can put your own waveshaper in it's place, there's one each in OSC and LFO layers inside Note FX chain.

Allows easily dial in 7 slices from any sample mapped to white keys

Template patch for quick mapping of 7 slices, tied to white keys primarily. Have options to set grid size, for slice snapping so you don't have to dial those slices perfectly by hand if loop you're chopping is already evenly divided

Helps allocating notes to different channels MPE style, which will rewrite original channel information notes had. You can then use Channel outlet from Note in module in Grid as index for voices (although up to 16)

A tool to split up notes to their own channels, sorted from low to high or the other way around (see button in remote controls). Something you might need to differentiate different voices in Grid by referring to their channel number (from 0 to 15)

Master reference scale setup, you can point to it anywhere in project with either Note Harmonize device or Pitch Quantize module with sidechain note input from this Master device. Additionally, you can use note input from track to shift root key of the scale, or shift root manually with Key offset remote control. Also you can use track note input as Global transpose modulation, which can be tapped into in Receiver preset (you have to point to device called Global transpose in Pre-FX chain of this Grid). And finally you can also set scale via key input as sustained chord, but keep in mind that all options that use keytrack can be used together and affect output.

Added option to punch in scale from input chord

Use it to point to single Master reference, or just set custom scale manually in Pitch Quantize if you want just that. There's also Global Transpose input for Master reference patch, to apply global transposition as well.

Revised Master scale device + Scale receiver. You put Master part on a separate track, configure it's scale via Pitch Quantize module. additionally there are key offset options, where key input can be used for offset, as well as for global transpose. Where needed, put Receiver preset and set sidechain input for Pitch Quantizer module to output of the Master scale track, additionally you can select Audio sidechain in there designed for global transpose, target device called appropriately in Master Note Grid's chains, after that you can use global transpose option of the Master scale.

Polyphonic tremolo that works on any native instrument, if Gain control isn't hijacked. Remote controls: Blend - blend between no modulation and tremolo effect, is affected by following controls Env - fade in/out for tremolo effect, shifts blend to tremolo. rnd - how much random affects blend amount Rise/Fall - add smoothing as (if) needed via enfelope follower after modulation Gain mod - when on, modulates Gain. when off, modulates Pressure Bend - Bends tremolo gain curve Quantizer - at max setting switches between voices in stepped fashion

The polyphonic tremolo effect that can be used on native devices and CLAP plugins that will support gain expressions. You can play with LFO and Random modulator settings, like enabling/disabling polyphonic mode on those, then it'll affect how gain is modulated across held notes. With mono LFO, you'll hear more of a wave that goes across held notes as if it's a 'soft arpeggiator' that blends between held notes one-by-one instead of triggering them one-by-one. While with polyphonic mode and randomisation you can get different notes coming in and out in different groups.

Single preset for both Note and Audio sidechain note quantization. Basically works like sort of live Groove pool, delaying notes on/off according to rhythm of sidechain source. See notes inside Grid patch for instructions.

Based on Polarity's idea of getting a live groove pool from sidechain source, this preset can use either notes or audio from other track as source, and then from generated triggers quantizes notes that go through this device. There are notes inside Grid, but basically select sidechain source for what you want to use in Pre-FX chain, CH2 layer

basic re-creating of Chorus effect, but using all-pass filter for delays, for more washed out unison feel. Swap regular LFO module for SH LFO if you want random movement instead!

DIY Chorus is basically recreation of Chorus device in Grid as far as my understanding of it goes, but with all-pass filter used for delay. You can easily swap regular LFO for SH/LFO for random movement. Bitwig version requirement: 4.1

Change seed value to anything between 0-100% (including decimals) to generate a new set of CC values. Set size also affects seed results, it's like accessing different banks of presets ranging from size of 1 preset to 4590. You can dynamically create new sounds and corresponding effects and get back to certain states as any seed value is it's own 'preset'. There's a number of ways to drop a seed value apart from manual selection.

CC randomizer tailored for Generic Knobs controller script, which randomises remote control values in currently selected device. There are few modes for triggering new random values from note input as well as manual seed selection. 4.0 and up required, virtual midi driver as well to send CC's and then reuse in controller script. compared to previous version I've removed accidentally left over note filter which caused input trigs to not pass above C#1 notes, as well as removed remote controls in favour to just Macro modulators in order to avoid feedback loops when device itself is becoming target for randomization. additionally there's a keytrack option for manual seed selection mode, so you could choose seed based on note

Change seed value to anything between 0-100% (including decimals) to generate a new set of CC values. Set size also affects seed results, it's like accessing different banks of presets ranging from size of 1 preset to 4590. Limiting the chance to certain value ranges can sometimes be quite effective. You can dynamically create new polysynth sounds and corresponding effects and get back to certain states as any seed value is it's own 'preset'.

as name suggest, it just hard-clips input at 0dB by default. also have lowpass filter

instead of Mid/Side clipper that I made before, this one ensures that output will be clipping at 0db by default.

Change seed value to anything between 0 and 100% to generate a new preset, decimals also count. There's also Set size knob that resizes set from maximum 4590 values to anything less, and that would generate whole new set with different combinations for each seed. so total seeds that can be accessed should be beyond 21million.

updated seed-based RandoRambo, originally based on Polarity's preset. now has two simple to use knobs for seed and subset size, any combinations of the two would generate new 'presets'. there's also fade settings to smoothly morph between seeds. *version 3.3.8 required

This preset processes up to 8 channels independently and gives probability setting for each channel to pass it's note. You can use it with multi-channel clips where you want certain notes to have certain probability of passing through. So in that case you assign those notes to channel 2 or up, so you can have 8 'groups' of different probabilities this way

8 probability knobs for 8 midi channels, a midi effect for blocking or passing through notes among 8 channels

Restrict notes in scale and set the timing of your play on grid, then play all the right notes at right time ;)

feeling lazy or lacking skill to perform on keyboard live and on time, on scale? no worries, just a bit of your CPU power and play along whatever you want according to scale and timing you want!

use arppegiator UI + chain remote controls as gate sequencer

Gating sequencer that can be used on audio tracks. Use Chain's remote controls and Arpeggiator UI to set up gating sequence and ADSR timings

This preset allows selective mid/side clipping or overall clipping of signals above 0db

Simple Mid-Side/Overall hard clipper

Real-time audio pitch shifter with more grainy up-speed stretch and more smooth slow down effect with full stop effect at -100% Additionally there's FM mod knob that will apply input self-modulation and envelope that triggers at note input to drive it.

Tape slow-down and grainy pitch-up knob for input audio, plus FM modulation of input sound on itself or resulting pitch-down/up sound.

See notes inside the patch for instructions on how to use. This is a tool for semi-automated sample slicing to notes. Drop sample into Sampler in Grid's FX chain, then use Remote contorls to scan for slices. Scan button in ON state - detected slices applied, OFF state - erase slice data. with every new sample you need to erase and rescan.

Bitwig's homebrew 'Simpler'. Scan and slice samples using this device with automapping to notes. See notes inside for more details.

Approximate recreation of Ableton's Random device with built-in scaler to constrain resulting randomness.

Approximate recreation of Ableton's Random device.

Alternative to Sampler's Textures mode: a way to create grains lengths based on input pitch rather than fixed values, as well as more control over grain shapes and motion.

Grid Granular synth

Each note generates 8-point random wave, which is used as oscillator for given voice. Additionally Sinemod phase modulation applied on that shape for more variation

cleaned up preset with that random WT synth I mentioned in <#298769583769387008>
