Bitwig is a modular daw that`s super stable has regular updates that add new features and has Linux support.
It has to mature with some of it`s features but it`s already at a very good level!
Everyone that`s familiar with Ableton will feel at home but will surely miss some things like audio to midi and the midi capture. Let`s hope they get added at the next update.
The Grid adds another dimension to the creative playground you get with it!
Devs had some trouble with the community after the release of spectral suite as an addon but they got their lesson and realized it was a bad approach. Of course everyone who is paying yearly support does it so to get the latest and greatest. After all that was one of my main concerns about supporting them was the constant development (get`s patched 2-3 months with new content) and the rate of updates.
Overall the workflow and Ui is nice and i think it needs to get more attention.
If you are on linux or want to spend less than ableton is asking you need to check it!

Versatile and Powerful DAW for Creative Producers
Aaron Dolan 21.09.2024
Bitwig Studio stands out for its flexibility and modular design, making it a favorite among electronic music producers. The integrated clip launcher and powerful modulation system allow for highly creative workflows. Its intuitive interface is easy to navigate for both beginners and seasoned professionals, though the software’s complexity may require some learning time. With regular updates and strong community support, it's a worthy investment for anyone looking to push their production boundaries.

Excellent DAW
Diverge 28.03.2025
This is my second DAW after having used Ableton for many years. I recently switched to Linux and decided to check out the trial version of bitwig due to its native support.
I found it to be extremely user friendly and with some very nice features such as the modular synth grid, which is extremely powerful and also a great space saver if you'd like to try modular synthesis without a eurorack setup.
I've found the workflow to be similar to Ableton but the UI feels much more modern.
I greatly prefer this DAW and will be sticking with it going forwards.
Unfortunately there was an error. Please try again later.

Ich bin begeistert.

Nicht überladen. Workflow ähnlich wie Ableton, aber in gut.
Schöneres Interface, geringere CPU Auslastung, alles was man braucht vorhanden, günstiger als Ableton Suite.
Das Grid sieht mächtig aus und wird mir vermutlich noch viel Zeit klauen / schenken.
