Might be a corrupted download. Will be in the office today and reset it. You may want to try again, maybe it helps.

Parameter shortcuts niiiiice. That will reduce our clicking by like 25%.

Any time frame when the update for the Bitwig Sync would be ready? I think you said the drones werent receiving the midi from Synfire. I actually experienced that for the first time a few days ago. When I play....nothing at times. Other times...it plays, Idk.

I'm afraid this is a bug with Bitwig. The Drones are identical for all DAWs. They work fine in other DAWs.

Drones are receiving MIDI, but the playhead position passed down to them by Bitwig seems to be wrong or incomplete. If you start from zero it works. If you start from a position later in the song, they are mute.

EDIT: 

You can test this yourself: Load a DAW-synched plug-in (e.g. Synthesizer-V) in Bitwig and watch it veering off the playhead position after a few position changes.

Reply from Bitwig support: 

"The issue should be fixed with the latest beta, 5.1 Beta 6, you might want to check it out. It's downloadable from the user account page. "

Ah, just upgraded to Beta 6 and tested. Still not working. Ill bring it up, just trying to find other fixes now. Bitwig has always had syncing problems, i realized this when I triggered drums with Mdrummer back in the day.

 

As my knowledge is increasing and my setup becoming more elaborate, I am no longer able to monitor through Bitwig anymore due to latency compensation. Ive tried Studio one, I hate it. I tried using Synfire as a standalone, it works but its not my work flow. I use substantial FX chains and often like to keep switching sounds to demo them.

Any suggestions are welcomed.

 

Thanks for all the support.
