Time Splitter

by headhunterz for FX Grid

Category: Utility

Bitwig Version: 5.1.6

Discord Avatar of headhunterz
dummy patch

Processing in The Grid is sample accurate. This is especially useful when working with steep modulation envelopes, like with transients. Envelope modules outside of The Grid also have a minimum attack time of 1ms, which makes them unsuitable for razor sharp editing. This patch allows very accurate isolation of a fragment of the incoming signal for separate processing. The dry and wet signal are separated in an FX layer nested in Post FX. All essential controls are mapped to a remote page.

Here's a sample accurate signal splitter I use for FX processing on specific fragments of (in my case kicks) the incoming signal. Envelopes outside of the grid have a minimum attack time of 1 ms and especially when working with fast transients, accuracy becomes important.

Gate

by evergreenthetree for FX Grid

Category:

Bitwig Version: 5.1.3

Discord Avatar of evergreenthetree
dummy patch

Gate with Hysteresis™. Essentially, there are separate thresholds for causing the gate to open and close. If the signal exceeds the Open Threshold, the gate is opened. Then, the gate will only close once the signal goes below the Close Threshold. Note that the Open threshold should always be higher than the Close Threshold. The other controls includ Attack which controls the attack of the gate envelope, release which controls the Release of the gate envelope, Depth which controls how much the gate attenuates the signal, and Sidechain? which controls whether or not to use a sidechain input. Dtct Atk and Dtct Rel are used to control how fast the gate will be triggered in response to the signal. In general it is usually desirable to keep Dtct Atk low and Dtct Rel a bit longer. To get a better idea of what thresholds to set, what the state of the gate is, and set the audio sidechain source, open the grid and look for the labeled white controls.

Essentially the stock Gate device but with hystersis (meaning you control the opening and closing thresholds separately). See the description of the preset for more details on the controls.

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.

FX Bypass Layer G

by minortom for FX Grid

Category: Utility

Bitwig Version: 4.4.10

dummy patch

Blendable FX bypass (input stage Mix knob). Your FX go into Post FX -> FX Layer -> layer 1, AFTER the DC Offset. Leave layer 2 alone.

A blendable bypass wrapper for FX / Mix knob for the input stage / device version of the Split module. It's awkward because two levels of nesting, it incurs a small CPU hit because Grid, but it sounds good and doesn't suffer cancellation artifacts like the simpler solution I've tried. Maybe others will also agree this is useful and ask Bitwig to finally do it.

Low Pass Gate

I recently saw some interesting videos on Eurorack Low Pass Gates. Although it is described as not (easily) possible to re-create in software I think I succeeded quite well in mimicking it in the Grid. The four macro knobs will do to cover most of the alteration of the LowPassGate behaviour 🤔

Artefact

by Moose for FX Grid

Category: FX

Bitwig Version: 4.4.2

dummy patch

Hard clipper with a bit of a twist. Good for lo-fi/tape crackle/noise effects (although worse than actual emulations, obviously). For an actual hard clipper (why would you, but still) set Mix, Blend and Density to 100%. Depth - threshold level. Mix - dry/wet blend. Dynamic - threshold follows the input signal volume. Random - threshold level is randomized (lowering the overall threshold). Gap - [regular][stepped, can pop] gap between clip triggers. Cluster - [regular][stepped, can pop] clip time (% of gap length). Blend - between [regular] and [irregular], that is clipping at certain intervals or clipping randomly. Density - [irregular] essentially the chance to clip randomly.

Made a preset as a kind of challenge while learning Grid. Distortion, crackle, noise or something like that.

Hi everyone, here is a new grid fx preset that uses the array module. The parameters in the performance window can change the behaviour of the fx. It's mainly used to distort the audio signal or add bitcrushing effects. And yes, the ui is intentionally broken (inspired by the freakshow industries plugins).

Super Separator Demasking

by Shae (Baphy) for FX Grid

Category: Utility

Bitwig Version: 4.2.2

Discord Avatar of Shae (Baphy)
dummy patch

Performs "The Super Separator Trick" (mirrored comb filters) to de-mask two midrange sounds that are fighting with each other for space and clarity. See notes inside the FX Grid itself for instructions and tips.

De-masker that uses The Super Separator Trick, built by Baphometrix in an FX Grid device. Inspired by a Dan Worrall video showing how he does this trick with some unique features of Reaper. This is a really great way to make two competing midrange sounds share the mid spectrum nicely, and to improve the clarity of both sounds. https://youtu.be/Q7BnT3V7Ua4

Shepards Tone Filters

Based off the "Shepards Tone," and audio illusion of ever rising tone. Interval has to be tuned correctly to make the various peak filters line up. Fading controls how long the fade-in and fade-out time is for each tone.

An endlessly rising series of peak filters. They fade in and out so that, when going slow, it's hard to hear any beginning or end. The effect is that the tone seems to rise forever,

C3 - 1/8 D3 - 1/16 E3 - 1/32 F3 - 1/64

My 1st actual Grid preset that I'm proud of. There's several optimisations I could do to make it smaller (4-5x actually), but for now my head hurts trying to do that, so I'll probably re-do it from scratch with what I've learned. Anyway, it's a simple beat repeater FX, controlled by MIDI: C3 - 1/8 repeats D3 - 1/16 E3 - 1/32 F3 - 1/64 Next versions will likely add expressions to control amplitude, filtering and pitch shifting.

Crude Lookup Distortion

by balsamicrow for FX Grid

Category: Destruction

Bitwig Version: 3.3 Beta 1

Discord Avatar of balsamicrow
dummy patch

This is a crude wavetable lookup distortion/waveshaper, similar in concept to Audio Damage's plugin Grind. Incoming audio is fed through the phase modulation input of a stopped wavetable oscillator in order to remap the amplitude of the input to that of the wavetable's. Or something like that. This implimentation doesn't work super well but I'm sure you can get some cool sounds out of it if you tried. Try loading some different wavetables.

I made a pretty simple wavetable lookup distortion thingy in FX Grid. It sounds okay but it's fun to experiment with. Maybe somebody can improve on it. Requires 3.3 beta minimum, of course.

Micromanager

by TÂCHES for FX Grid

Category: Utility

Bitwig Version: 3.2.7

Discord Avatar of TÂCHES

A handy little device for creating tighter drum rhythms out of loops. Set INPUT to an appropriate level for the Envelope Follower to pick up the transients and then dial in ATTACK and DECAY to taste. The LOW CUT knob will remove unwanted low frequencies, helpful for making top loops out of any loop. The CLAP and HAT knobs let through notes with longer delay on every other downbeat and every off beat respectively to add some longer hits even if you have the whole loops sounding tight as hell. SPACE adds a small amount of reverb to glue it all together a little.

Here's a nifty little tool that will help you create those tight, clicky microhouse/ Rominimal drum patterns a la Ricardo Villalobos/Rhadoo/Petre Inspirescu/Raresh out of any drum loop you slap it on.

Vinyl Noise

Discord Avatar of Koldunya

Vinyl Noise to drop onto any track with controls go mix incoming audio signal with noise. Amount blends the "record noise" with the pops and crackles. Audio adjusts the level of the incoming audio signal, and Noise adjusts the level of the noise.

It sounds pretty good, imo. Has a few controls two blend the two noises, and the volume of the incoming audio and the noise as a whole (although there is simply a Mix knob on the FX Grid anyway 👀)

Recreation of Ableton's Erosion Effect. (Original design by Cryptid, with very small additions by Baphometrix.) Short Delay modulated by filtered noise or sine wave. Wreck Knob adds distortion and wavefolding.

For the Ableton peeps who miss Erosion. This is the same exact process/build as Erosion at its core. Of course since the filters we have access to are not exactly the same as all the possible filter algos used in Ableton, there will be *some* sound differences, but it's close enough for rock & roll. This build also gives you some timbre/textural options not possible in the OG.
