Very cool. Channel Filter is definitely helpful, especially working with Kontakt (as someone said). Another way to achieve this on a single track and without Channel Filter is to select the actual layers of the Instrument Layer, go to the Inspector, and change the Channel > From settings. The 1st layer could receive notes from Channel 1, the 2nd layer from Channel 2, and so on. I think this is a bit quicker and you can save it as a preset.
Hey, yes I know couple of people that use it with kontakt. I didn't want to make the video long, I don't really use kontakt that much. But what you say is totally true. Good comment.
It's incredibly useful for working with different articulations in Kontakt or other more orchestral work. Why mess with keyswitches when you can just have multiple instances within Kontakt with different articulations and actually be able to see what's what going on in the clip since the notes are on different channels.
Totally true, but I didn't wanted to dive into kontakt, since not everybody use it.... maybe I should create a separate video just for Kontakt and Channel filter.
Yeah, totally. Sometimes the workflow you think is best is usually the best, not because it makes sense but because it unlocks your creativity. I could trash my 16 channel interface which is connected to 10 different synths and amps, sell everything and just use the V Collection.....I only need a laptop and internet, that is what it makes more sense right ? less expensive, no cables, no space required. But, in my case, interacting manually with knobs, pedals and other stuff help my creativity a lot. What I mean, it's not always about sound and what it makes sense. It is about what works for you.
I use this more often going the opposite direction from what's shown in the video. I have a midi track that sounds pretty good, but I want a few of the notes to be different in some way. Whether that's a different instrument or a different tweak on the same instrument, or often that's sending it to some sort of different note fx. Also, don't underestimate how much it saves your brain to just have less tracks in your project.
@@XNBeatsMusic I find the lag of plugins worse than MIDI. I've always used a real keyboard as a 'controller' while listening to a similar sound directly from that keyboard. My problem is that I don't like making tracks permanent by rendering the audio. I always want to be able to go back and try something else with tempo, tone, etc. As such, I find these kind of tricks might be interesting for the moment, but you'd have to 'de-code' what you did if you come back to it months later. But, taking a bunch of notes and assigning them to a different midi channel within the same track and then stacking modules to do different things? If I had any interest in revisiting the project... now I'm not.
@@bryndayy But, in the end I don't see that this can be plugged into a different track and automatically have the same effect. Also, the concept described isn't new. I've done the exact same thing with a midi patchbay/router and Oberheim Strummer on occasion... and 8 track hardware sequencer. Then we got comp sequencers and all the tracks we wanted. And that equipment went in the garage. This guy spent just as much time going back to the 80's as we used to do with actual hardware.

✅This is already the best Bitwig channel on UA-cam.
Thanks.👍🔥
Thanks man, UA-cam blocked your comment because it thought is was spam. I just approved it. Thanks for the support, I'll try to keep it up.
I can imagine having a full orchestra in only one track with this one
Hhaha, well maybe. It is possible... :)

great video! Can you please show us how you do record your hardware synths on Bitwig? A step by step guide would be awesome, thank you.
Hey, thanks. Why not, it's actually very simple...let me think about how I can make it more rich content. But, Yes, Good idea :)
bro love u thanx for the affort
or, you could just keep them as separate tracks. I watched the entire thing. Kinda looks like 3 card monte to me.
