Open to everything related to Bitwig Studio. Current emphasis on learning the program for users of other Digital Audio Workstations (but also for those new to all this entirely).

All skill levels welcome but this is a beginner friendly space. Please, don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have about production in Bitwig and please don't berate others for not knowing something you already knew.

Most importantly, get making some crazy sounds!

TIL how to turn off/mute notes with a shortcut

One of my most used shortcuts in Live is numpad 0 to turn off notes. I use it all the time to edit and create variants of melodies and drumparts.

In Bitwig I could never find it, and now I know that was because in BW it uses Toggle Active (and I was looking for 'note' shortcuts).

The shortcut is: Alt+A (Option + A on Mac)

I also learned that you can add another shortcut to it, like the numpad 0 that I'm used to using in Live.

How to add a custom shortcut for this:

Go to Settings in the menu and select shortcuts on the left. Then search for 'active', click the + next to 'toggle active' and you get a pop up to add a new shortcut.

Here I have already added the numpad 0:

Hope this was useful to someone!
