    Me losing all faith in Bitwig adding a native macro system.... *Tache Enters The Chat*

      i have full faith in bitwig adding everything, they have done a phenomenal job over the decade, and they will continue to innovate for sure.
      it will never be perfect, a daw is just way too complex

      I’m only just learning that other DAWs have this! Would definitely be cool to have natively

      macs come with automator which is a bit like this not sure if it would do some or any of this i used it years ago for creating photo files searching for a name and replacing with a description then it would add 001 then 002 etc to the names of any files in a folder and move to a folder it created with the name, all this with a single click. that was 15 years ago its still in there but might be fun to see if its doing anything like this probably not as sophisticated but who knows lol

    For the kick+snare+hi hat clips you could save and insert a single bwscene file. Tracks would be inserted inside a group but there is a ungroup command for tracks

    adding device can be even faster without the pop up browser by setting a clipboard target to a .bwpreset file of the device on your disk locally and then paste command

    Very cool man! You can do the same with apps like touch portal where you can map these actions on buttons in your phone display.

    •  Місяць тому +3

      Ooooh! So I could have my iPad set up with every possible shortcut? I suppose I could also utilize something like TouchOSC as Keyboard Maestro can receive MIDI as a trigger too!

  • @Headhunterzofficial

    There is a better way too add devices using Keyboard Maestro. You can copy the default preset of any device (located in a hidden folder in the user library) to the clipboard and paste it into bitwig. Much faster and more reliable because it’s not dependant on lag time from bitwig executing all these commands.

    Alternatives to Windows are:
    - Pulover’s Macro Creator
    - tinytask
    - FastKeys
    These alternatives are much easier than this in the video
    Just record what you want and have a shortcut for it.

    Bloody marvellous! In true sorcerer's apprentice stylee you have taught me something already! I've been using a clumsy method of jumping the mouse pointer around the screen, namely finding an image; I didn't realise that the Get button was available. This is going to inspire me to come up with a lot more macros! I really like the Bitwig Global thing, although I think mine is going to be activated by the Shift/Cmd/P key stroke since this is commonly used as a Command Palette shortcut by lots of coding tools.

    Just found out an issue here:
    Sometimes when I'm focusing on, e.g. any given clip on track 1. When pressing T, Bitwig could still be focusing on Track 2 Header. This behaviour make the Adding EQ+ process somewhat unpredictable (I can't make it happen on clip / Track1 100% of the time.
