TouchDesigner and Bitwig Studio Are Now Connected

With the latest updates of Bitwig Studio and TouchDesigner, the two applications now connect the audio and visual world in a very powerful way. Both applications can control and listen to each other thanks to “TDBitwig” (a set of components in TouchDesigner) and the newly added “TouchDesigner” extension in Bitwig Studio.

TouchDesigner is a visual programming language for realtime interactive multimedia content developed by the Toronto-based company Derivative. It is used by artists, programmers, creative coders, software designers, and performers to create performance visuals, installations, and fixed media works.

TDBitwig is available in TouchDesigner (2022.35230). For a more in-depth explanation of TDBitwig and a description of all TDBitwig components please visit the TDBitwig User Guide.

The TouchDesigner extension is included in Bitwig Studio 5.0.10 and later, and it is required for TDBitwig to work. Go to the Dashboard > Settings > Controllers page to Add Controller, under Vendor “Derivative”.
