cclarry Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Download it today to get MSEGs, new performance features, an elevated modulation system, and upgraded browsers. But that's not all: v5 also comes with a sound package and demo song. As always, it's a free upgrade for everyone with an active Upgrade Plan. https://www.bitwig.com/whats-new/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralfrobert Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) 16 track is no longer. They have introduced three new product tiers. https://www.bitwig.com/de/stories/introducing-three-flavors-of-bitwig-studio-254/ These are already available in the shop. It may be a good thing.

Sander Verstraten Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Coming from the Beta to the Official V5, it seems not to import the VST list, but does a full new scan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jngnz Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Tell you what. I was singing the praises for Bitwig in that beta thread, but someone sold me Studio One Pro 6 for $85 (for some reason) and it might be bye bye Bitwig now. At least for mixing. It is, however, absolutely in its own league, by a long shot, when it comes to plugin performance and MPE support. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe... here's what I'm seeing You'll get v5.0 and its features - but it still comes up as 8-Track. Maybe they haven't got the full upgrade/conversion ready yet... Edit: that's assuming that everything (all the bells & whistles) is/are not already there in all but the name. I'm not going to bother (at the moment) to dive in and verify if it's missing anything based the link below.https://www.bitwig.com/feature-list/ I don't have the time so I'll leave that to some other OCD forum member.

backwoods Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 if you upgrade from old version can you still use old version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSteven Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 2 hours ago, backwoods said: if you upgrade from old version can you still use old version? Yes - they install in separate folders (at least by default). Create a short cut to old version and change name slightly - like 'BitWig 4'. Install new version and create a short cut to it and you'll easily be able to launch either one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is a configuration option for showing pre releases , but I am not 100% sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
