BITWIG STUDIO 1.0 Launches – Next Generation Music Creation Platform
Forget the DAW – and everything else you’ve been taught about making music with a computer.
An entirely new platform is officially available for music producers and performers, in the form of BITWIG STUDIO 1.0. Launched by a Berlin-based band of renegades, its software that reflects a fresh vision for music production, live performance and collaboration.
A next generation platform for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, we first saw BITWIG STUDIO 1.0 live in person at Winter NAMM 2014 and sensed immediately it would shake things up. In constant development since 2009, its creators are clearly focused on bringing fresh inspiration to the act of sound design and music creation, introducing customized workflows and an extremely high level of control.
BITWIG STUDIO 1.0 is available now for purchase as a boxed version with a printed manual, USD $449.99, or via download, USD $399 in the Bitwig Webshop.
