    Rapid Flow is now available for Bitwig! Over 3.000 producers have downloaded our template and transformed their music production... The Rapid Flow Template based on a workflow many pro musicians use to get results fast. It is pre-mixed and mastered and is a great starting point for your productions and live set. You will only need Bitwig 4.4 to use it.
    User feedback
    "Amazing product. I wrote 5 songs in 3 days" - Dean Z.
    "I'm seriously blown away. The amount of work and knowledge put into this template is insane. I'feel like someone handed me a cheat code ..." - Rene
    "...this is the best template I've purchased straight out of the box that just sounds awesome :)" - Troy M.
    "My Best invested money so far. Thank you!" - Boštjan D.
    "This is brilliant thank you." - Anonymous
    "Really well made content and template enabling you to produce top quality tracks with efficient professional workflow..." - Anonymous
    Using this template, you will be able to create a track that sounds floor ready in less than 1 hour... and the process will be a lot more fun and happen in real-time supporting your creativity.
    What's in the Rapid Flow template?
    Mastering & Channel Racks , Pre-mixed samples and controller maps for AKAI APC40 MKII, MIDIMIX and any 8 fader control surface. Get up and running in no time and achieve professional results!
    I have taken the best learnings from studio collaborations and these masterclasses to create an inspiring and very fast workflow. As a trained sound engineer I have included my 25 years mixing experience. The template has:
    - Pro Workflow for Live and Studio
    - Live Performance FX
    - Send FX
    - Pre-mixed Samples
    - Pre-set Channel Settings
    - Mastering Chain
    - A/B Comparison setup for reference tracks
    - Explanation Videos
    Does it really work?
    The template is setup to immediately start producing tracks knowing the starting point will always sound great compared to commercially released tracks. See our user feedback for how this has transformed the lives of thousands of producers.
    Studio or Live?
    Both! The Rapid Flow template uses a structure that is really simple and fast in the studio and powerful for live performance. The best thing: every track you work on will immediately be ready to be played on stage. No transfer or further editing necessary.
    Using a Controller
    This is optional but much more fun. : ) I recommend either the AKAI APC40 MKII or the AKAI MIDIMIX. Any controller with 8 faders and 8 rotary knobs will do. I take you through the setup in the video.
    Will this help my mixing?
    Absolutely! I found that once you have a proven starting point, it is easy to add new kicks, basses, melodies etc. and know when they sound right. The A/B Crossfader workflow to instantly compare your track to reference tracks is the final ingredient.
    Why are you sharing this?
    I want to share this workflow, because I had become quite frustrated making tracks in a time consuming way. I have seen many friends stuck like this also.... Making music had started to feel like work. It often took me weeks to complete a track and they ended up sounding "overproduced". Sound familiar? Making music should be fun but when you are starting out, there are often too many technical variables that can take you away from your musical ideas and inspiration. My main aim is for producers to spend less time on technical details and get great sounding masters, while having a more inspired time in the studio. Hope this pack checks those boxes! Enjoy : )

    I am over 20 years on Cubase... Now I'm also on Bitwig 😅 The template is just awesome, also for Ableton and Logic. Same great quality of sounds, samples and workflow. Well done Erik 😎🥳👏 The template is so easy to understand and the results of first track ideas are fast, very fast. Thanks for all the work and keep it up with the channel here.

      @RapidFlow_Shop I just downloaded it for free (don't judge!). No, it isn't that I can't afford it, but I had some problem with the payment processor. I will fix it and send you the dosh later. Having the superchannels up at the top ungrouped is a brilliant idea. I hadn't thought of that. Simple but effective! And totally agree this hybrid way of production is much for fun and organic than loop kit bashing. Thanks again, have a good weekend man.

      You deserve much more followers hehe. This is gold.
      And actual real experience. Its a fresh fresh breath into the youtube world.
      Recently found you and btheclick. So different, real world, super useful and not just tips and tricks with a few tracks in the project.
      Been searching for methods of arranging "live" then mold it from there. As a instrument player arranging have never come naturally for me so this setup is just what i needed ❤
      Expected this video was clickbait or something but was pleasantly surprised. Not by the "possibility of making a track in 60min". Was expecting some bs, but wow hehe. The process of making music is always what compelled me with creating music. Not the result per se. But this just lifts alot of weight of the process to keep it as enjoyable as possible. Not fond of bates but this is the first time ive actually been superhappy to be "lured in"
      Keep it ut and keep it real. The followers will come

      @@RapidFlow_Shop they work perfectly. And hes worked on those for years and years. Only thing is that he just makes videos of what is new so reading the manual is important. And his generic flexi script can map everything with a midi in and out. Ive used it on stream deck pedal with midi plugin to rec new clip. Middel is go down one step (mixer view) and left is toggle overdub.
      Also controllers with foot switches can do Rec if no clip and overdub if there is clip. So many nice workflow things.
      Hes even got more functionality in push than you can do in ableton. In bitwig. So its a bit of wizardry. Easy to install also. On the push its also fully graphics supported. So with your rapid flow template you would be able to see the channel names on the controller on the push screen. Also easy to jam live on top since all scale options etc is available.
      Perfect live setup for a non live performer like me haha. Would maybe be a push 2 with a behringer x-touch compact or something for the sweet motorized faders hehe.

    Awesome template idea and a cool video walkthrough, thanks. I thought I recognised the Sebastian Mullaert influence when I first saw the template so it made me smile when you mentioned him, I also did his Circle of Live program last year and really found it valuable. How would you suggest using this template if I want to play live and include some elements like vocals or live played keys on top? To use the composer tracks? Thanks 🙏

    • @RapidFlow_Shop
      @RapidFlow_Shop  Рік тому +2

      Thx for your feedback. Yes Sebastian and Frank Wiedemann heavily influenced this workflow with their brilliant masterclasses on Circle of Live... For Live use I personally vmcrwat an audio track that I setup with a Lo cut and a low latency limiter and route it to the super channel. Dedicate a fader to it on your control surface and you re all set. Imoortannisnyour soundcard provides low latency audio all the way through the DAW. Otherwise use a mixer and mate a send from the mixer to a DAW reverb where the latency doesn't matter.. Mix the DAW and live source in the mixer.

    Thank you for the inspiring workflow. I've been seeking a solution to stop creating "Tetris Music." I'd like to try this method to produce/compose, then print the arrangement live and open the session in my current DAW, Studio One, which can natively open Bitwig sessions. I will obtain a demo version of Bitwig; however, when I add the Rapid Flow template on your site, I get an "out of stock" msg.

      That s a good question. I had made the switch to Bitwig which says a lot but was missing low latency input monitoring. As soon as that is available I might switch permanently but for now I am very happy and fast with Ableton… Bitwig s summing engine and UI are amazing though.
