Audiomodern Freezr Replaced In Bitwig
FANTASTiC | 06 April 2024 | 9 KB
Today, I’m exploring the Freezer effect and attempting to recreate it in Bitwig Studio’s grid. Here’s a summary of my process:
•Introduction to the Freezer Effect: I explained the Freezer effect, a typical buffer repeat effect, and mentioned its basic functionalities like setting repeat counts for each step and options for smoothing and filtering.
•Comparisons and Alternatives: I compared Freezer with other plugins, like Glitch, which I frequently use. I noted that many plugins offer similar features.
•Building the Effect in Bitwig Studio:I started by adding an FX grid to a drum loop.
•I used an audio input and output, along with a recorder, to capture audio every quarter note.
•I encountered an issue with the triggers sending gates instead of the needed triggers. I resolved this by adjusting the length module to create the correct trigger type.
•Creating the Buffer Effect:I used a value knob to modulate trigger timing, setting different repeat patterns. I demonstrated how to switch between dry input and buffer effect using logic gates.
•First Version – Basic Beat Repeat:This simple approach involved recording and then using modulated triggers to change the beat repeat effect.
•Second Version – Predefined Triggers:I created a more quantized version using predefined triggers for specific repeat counts. I included options for interpolation and nearest switches to improve sound quality.
•Third Version – Using Scalar for Rhythmic Variation:I introduced a scalar to modify the trigger ratio, offering more control over the repeats. I utilized the phase output signal for creative effects, like shaping volume for each repeat.
•Additional Features and Modifications:I suggested settings for smoothing, useful for melodies or pads to eliminate clicks. I explained how these settings allow for more creative control compared to the Freezer plugin.
Conclusion and Availability of Presets:I concluded by mentioning the possibility of creating stereo versions but opted not to cover it in this video to keep things simple.
•I announced that these presets would be available on my Patreon, but viewers could also rebuild them using my video as a guide.
Sign-off: I encouraged likes and subscriptions, thanking viewers and teasing the next video.
That’s a wrap on my video exploring and recreating the Freezer effect in Bitwig Studio!
