Bitwig has announced the launch of its first hardware product, a class-compliant, 4 in/12 out CV and MIDI-enabled audio interface with monitor- and DAW-control functionalities and a unique Bitwig Mode.
Bitwig Connect 4/12 is designed to seamlessly integrate hardware and software, and to offer a way to physically interact with Bitwig Studio.
Connect is a three-in-one audio/MIDI interface, monitor and DAW controller. Six mode buttons allow its 360°, touch-sensitive dial to adjust interface parameters or control software. It can set input gain, regulate the volume levels for two sets of monitors and your headphones, or even move the playhead and control any Bitwig Studio parameter with exceptional resolution.
The front panel gives you immediate visual feedback, with accurate input and output meters and a ring of 32 RGB LEDs around the dial to visualize parameter values and automation data. Plus, gain settings are accessible and saved within Bitwig Studio, so you can pick up right where you left off next time you open it.
Bitwig Connect 4/12 will be available in Spring 2025, priced $549 USD / 499 EUR. Pre-ordering will be available soon through the Bitwig webshop and selected retailers worldwide.
