About Bitwig

Bitwig is a DAW unlike any other. It’s a modern DAW built for producers and musicians who put creativity and flexibility with a smooth workflow at the heart of what they need. Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux, including support for ARM processors, it’s designed for music makers who want full control over their setup without being limited by platform.

Designed to be more than just a DAW, Bitwig doubles as an instrument in its own right. Its interface is fully customisable, letting you shape your workspace to suit your style. You can move quickly from idea to finished track, providing users the means to compose, edit, design sounds, and perform, all in one place with tools that simplify complex processes and keep the focus firmly on making music.

Bitwig’s signature modulation system offers control unlike any other DAW available. It allows users to connect LFOs, envelopes, random generators and more to virtually any parameter, across both built-in and third-party devices. This level of modulation, even per voice in polyphonic instruments, makes it an ideal tool for advanced sound design.

Bitwig also includes The Grid, a modular sound-design environment where you can patch together your own synths and effects using a visual interface. This tool is especially useful for those who enjoy experimentation and want to push sonic boundaries further. The Grid has went on to win several accolades like Music Tech Magazine's Excellence Award 10/10 in 2019 and the Computer Music Editor's Choice Award and Performance Award.

With its unique combination of adaptability, precision, and creative depth, Bitwig is a solid choice for producers, composers, and sound designers looking for a DAW that works around their ideas, not the other way round! Winners of several industry awards including DAW of the year in 2017 by Computer Music Magazine and again in 2023 by Future Music Magazine and Music radar Magazine, Bitwig is the DAW where your creativity will truly shine.
