Of course you would play it and record to hard disk and that was what I meant. Could it be, that some people in fact think, that Bitwig is MIDI-only? It is not even really MIDI but OSC as I mentined before and of course it is a full-featured HD-recorder too (though not as strongly optimized for HD-recording as Ardour) > >> It works most easy when you are out for 4/4 stuff structured as common >> in pop. > > And common for many, if not most Jazz compositions too.

Or perhaps you did not have a look upon the program yourself or maybe have lost the ability to thing a bit like Hannibal Lecter. I said it is *most easy* to work with *standard* 4/4 loops in Bitwig, and *not* that that is the only thing you can do. And it is so, because Bitwig comes with a Gigabyte of sampled loops, that are exactly that: standardized 4/4 segments for popular mainstream electronica. > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-audio-user mailing list > Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user > > _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
