    I think it was a good update. However there are many things they should do before creating new stuff. You must be wondering, but like what?
    - A good and simple freeze function
    - MIDI comping
    - Vídeo suport
    - Quantize-stretch onsets for audios
    - Resolve the EQ+ (and others) phase and latency issue
    - Being able to export in different tracks each pad/instruments of the Drum Machine device
    - Capture listening MIDI (like Ableton)
    - VariAudio type of editor

      @@SjarMenace What do you mean with scales and scale quantizing? Because as far as I know they already have that. You can use the note filter device to only let through notes in a certain scale. In the piano roll you can also highlight the notes belonging to the same 'musical family' with the same color with a click of a button.
      I don't remember what the logic with this was, since I hardly use it, but you can also have the DAW color the notes by velocity, for example. So I don't really understand what you mean?
      These are not really essential features anyway since a little music theory knowledge does the same thing... Unless I misunderstood something?

      Because bitwig are not making DAW with modulation possibilities. They are making synth with BASIC DAW functional. For example new browser is cluttered mess and the “old” browser slick and quick and easy to look at. But I understand why there was an urge to change browser.

Well, of cause no one cares and I’m not their main client but it’s sad cause I spent 9 years with them. And things like new browser pushed me to go elsewhere. Or stay on v4 forever.

    I strongly dislike the new browser. Intense dislike. Fail. Everything else is a big win, though, but that browser in its current state will keep me on 4.x. I don't want a flat hierarchy. That's too much noise to wade through; it makes finding the signal in the noise that much harder/slower. I don't want the browser guessing what I want to see. I don't want tiny, dull-colored icons that are MEANINGLESS, forcing me to hover my cursor over them to see the USEFUL names I've give to something. I want MY collections of devices and presets stitting there in front of me when I open the browser. With the full text names visible. I click a collection and boom! there's everything I care about. Two clicks and done. The new browser is a mess. Way too many clicks, way too much crap I don't care about that I must laboriously filter out. Fail.

      @@danemiller4852 Because it doean't have the exact features they want. I mean, sure I would like to see resisable faders, themes, video support and a better sampler but Bitwig is still to me a game changing DAW and the new features are amazing. I guess you can't please all the people all the time. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      All DAWs are complicated. Bitwig is one of the easier to use DAWs, in my opinion.

      6:30 We decided to give them everything!
      If you want something less complicated, there are other options Mixcraft, GarageBand, Audacity, etc
