Hi All, I’ve been working a lot with overbridge in various DAWs and in bitwig have found a way to set it up so that you can record midi to separate tracks, and route them back to the vst. I’ve done this example with two tracks from the RYTM.
First load the plugin for your elektron instrument into an instrument track.
Then you must right click and select add missing chains:
Create audio tracks (add the audio receiver device to each not illustrated in photos):
Select the input for each one:
Create instrument tracks (this is where you’ll record your midi):
Select the input and output for each:
Make sure each instrument channel is set to the proper midi channel:
At this point you’re pretty much all set as far as routing. Make sure you have the rytm set up as a midi controller in your settings:
And finally, you’ll want to mute the track of the overbridge plugin to prevent doubling of the audio, as it’s now routed to separate audio tracks:
Hope the bad photo quality is forgivable here, it’s all I had. I really hope this helps some people out. I have spent countless hours trying to figure this out for ableton and logic with only limited success, and more hours looking through various forum threads that had some helpful hints that I am thankful for. Glad to have figured it out completely for bitwig and happy to be able to share
