![]() ![]() You do realize that if you're not online then Bitwig refuses to run? At all? Think "Reason+ with extra "motivations" on top". It would be weird if I gave anyone else's viewĤ00 upvotes, 1,500 downvotes, and I don't think it's only because of the lousy voiceover. Like I said, I'm happy that you are happy but I don't like that sort of business modal. Major Reason upgrades were IIRC v3 (Combinator), v4 (new sequencer and Thor), Record (SSL), v5 (Neptune + Kong), V6 (Rack Extensions), v7/8 (APE) v9 (VSTs), v11 (RRP). So for 8 versions of Reason, you've pretty much got what you'd get after your 12 months of Bitwig have expired (note: you still get patch updates after your 12 months is up). Within the first 7 months of Bitwig 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2 were released with something like 10 new significant features, 4 new devices, 20 or so improvements, and 10 feature improvements (IIRC).Īlso Bitwig's point updates are on par with most Reason upgrades.ĭon't get me wrong, Reason has had pretty significant major (paid) upgrades, but only 3 point updates have occurred (4 if you count Record 1.5). So really, they're getting far less than Bitwig's 12 months. There are only 3 versions of Reason with major point updates: 3.5, 6.5 and 9.5 IIRC (and all with the first 12 months of release). Whether you win or lose on this depends how often they release major updates but you are paying for a time-limited "upgrade plan" (their words) rather than a specific upgrade. If that was Bitwig you'd have got 12 months of point updates then nothing unless you paid for another 12 months of updates. The time from R10 to R11 and R11 to R12 are closer to 2 years than 1. ![]() The difference is if you buy Reason 11 you get every point update for free until Reason 12 launches. I suppose you could consider it a type of subscription except you get to keep what you have so far. ![]() You get 12 months of updates and then nothing else until you pay for another 12 month upgrade plan, about 140 GBP. I like that Bitwig are trying to bring a modern approach to the DAW world andI'm intrigued by The Grid but I probably would not really use it after the initial playing. Im gonna keep using all of my REs but from now on in my free time Im going to experiment with Bitwig and ableton. also in modularity bitwig shines very brighter than Ableton b. this even gets better in Bitwig because they have a lot of " Containers " so you can do all sorta stuff. I need a setup to improve and even lvl up my Rack experience and make things more tailored more over control for example something like building effects rack in ableton is a great way of organizing racks but in reason it gets messy and harder to organize. īaphometrix has some great in depth videos comparing the two from 2018. So lets go : Bitwig vs Ableton which one has which edg over the other. but there are lots of stuff missing like an auto-save or mpe or better piano roll and it goes on. but I've been wanting to pick one and invest time more in it but couldnt make my head clear on which one also dont get me wrong Reason is amazing by itself specially with 12 coming and new combinator. I actually really like both and probably have to master both and they are really similar so that isnt a problem. could be any DAW but I sepeceficly thinking between Bitwig vs Ableton I also Happen to know FL Studio quit well it was my first daw ever and I worked in there for many years. So what everyone think about the best host to use Reason's legendary racks. maybe more valuable to master because you would need it some Studio sessions. and a lot larger user base more content available on the internet. in the other hand ableton is more improved more industry standard. IMO it looks like bitwig has the edge in a lot of aspects over ableton, but I gotta be sure. Im going to invest in either of the two to use as a more modern host for Reason Rack. I've been reading and following Ableton and Bitwig in parallel with working in Reason Daw. ![]()
