Luck Synth Lite

by supahdario for Instrument Layer

Category: Synth

Bitwig Version: 5.0.4

Discord Avatar of supahdario
dummy patch

Create random synth sounds by clicking a button and tweak the generated parameters using bipolar knobs. Based on different instances of Polymer and only uses Bitwig devices. If you're lucky, you'll get a cool sound :) How to use: Click the "New Sound" button to generate a fresh sound. Slightly adjust all parameters with the bipolar knob macros. Turning the button off resets the device to its default state (essentially mute). Turn it back on to generate a new sound. FYI: There might be a Bitwig bug, if the sound generation stops working, try holding a MIDI note on your keyboard while pressing the button.

Granular Sampler Template V 2

by pike for Instrument Layer

Category: Utility

Bitwig Version: 4.3.10

Discord Avatar of pike
dummy patch

A template to drop in any sample, enable looping and use the remote controls to affect the grain generation, window size and overall adsr. The release of chords is a little funky if not all notes are released at the same time, might be best to use a multinote for chords and only supply mono note input. Note that bitwig support told me this is basically abusing the midi standard, so expect that the audio engine to sometimes break on v4.3.10 at least, lower rate/density seems to break less.

Updated granular sampler template to work around bitwig simultaneous voice behaviour

This is a Randomizable snare maker. 5 instances of Phase-4, Minimal post processing and Whola lotta random modulators. When you come across to a snare you like, Disable the Random button to keep the snare as it is

Granular Sampler Template V 1

Category: Utility

Bitwig Version: 4.3.10

Discord Avatar of pike
dummy patch

Uses arp + note length to generate grains, as well as humanize, randomize and random modulators to spread grains in different ways. Drop in your own sample, enable looping and tweak the start playhead position Use the ADHSR in the Sampler to control aspects of the grain window shape. The 'Main ADSR' modulator is mainly for controlling monophonic attack/decay of the sound.

Template for the sampler that has note fx set up to act like a granular synth. Drop in your own sample and use the controls to affect the grain generation

A two layer pad with aftertouch and expression (CC1) mapped. contains a sample from a Pigments preset by me, plus a tweaked polymer factory preset (analong rain).

Vangelis on Ambien. A pad preset using Instrument Layer, containing a sampled pad I made in pigments (you don't need pigments to use this preset) and a tweaked Polymer pad from the factory library. CC1 (expr) and aftertouch, route into your favorite reverb, and set sail for dreamland.

dummy patch

Based on the Prophet-5 patch used throughout Radiohead's Everything In Its Right Place To mimic double tracking the patch uses two instances of polysynth hard panned, and the humanise note fx to randomise note timing Use 'Original pitch' button on second preset page to tune closer to the original track.

Key sound trying to mimic the main part from Radiohead's Everything In Its Right Place. I think it sounds pretty close, but would be closer if the envelopes in polysynth were a little bit snappier. Open for suggestions on how to improve it though!

Keyswitches Modulator

by Robbert for Instrument Layer

Category:

Bitwig Version: 4.1.2

Discord Avatar of Robbert
dummy patch

This turns the lowest octave into a modulator you can assign to a parameter.

Might as well also share this here. This turns the lowest octave into a 0-1 modulator while leaving the rest of the signal unaffected. You could use this to add keyswitches-like functionality to a plugin that normally doesn't support that.

Rotating between four sound sources using LFO's. Rate, beat mode and shape can be controlled at the remote controls for some nice rhythmical variations. To use, put your sound sources into the respective chain devices for each sound source and set levels appropriately. Please enjoy! //Moonkin
