Bitwig is an international music software company based in Berlin. The company was founded in 2009 by a team of music enthusiasts with extensive experience in the music technology industry and a strong vision about new cutting-edge methods of music production, live performance and collaboration.
The team launched their first product - BITWIG STUDIO on March 26th, 2014. Bitwig Studio is a multi-platform Digital Audio Workstation (or DAW) for production, remixing and performance with a focus on flexible editing tools and a super-fast workflow. Bitwig studio is available on PC, Mac and Linux platforms, supporting VST effects and instruments in 32- and 64-bit versions. Bitwig Studio runs VSTs in a separate process. This prevents the program from crashing when a plug-in misbehaves.
The world of DAWs is a highly contested one, with many great, established packages available. As a newer player, Bitwig has taken a different approach, introducing features such as hybrid tracks, layered editing, a unified modulation system and multiple-monitor support.
As this is a brand-new DAW, Bitwig have started from fresh with all new code, which has been prepared for the future addition of features such as multi-user jamming, and a native modular system.
