I recently took the plunge and invested in Bitwig Studio. Although I believe it's the best state of the art DAW for electronic music/EDM production, there are several aspects that really annoy me. In this video I have noted down my concerns and broken them down into chapters. My intention is that either my viewers can prove me wrong / they can show me some workarounds / or Bitwig can work on these points.

Do you agree/disagree on these points? Is there something that did not grab my attention yet and is missing in this list?

0:00 Intro
00:59 The Time Stretch-UI in Bitwig is not as sophisticated as in Ableton Live
04:36 Time Stretch in Ableton Live IMHO is the reference
06:27 Plugin overview in Bitwig - too overloaded
07:33 Plugin overview in Ableton Live - straight, simple, clutter free
08:49 Arranger & Mixer overview in Bitwig - not better, not worse than Ableton Live
11:49 Arranger & Mixer overview in Apple Logic - my personal reference
12:00 no advanced Audio editing in Bitwig
13:46 Working Folder & File Management. Please just save everything.
16:55 The Bitwig Button, File Menu & Task Bar. Why.
18:23 Is there a Toggle-button in Bitwig?
21:04 Why does Bitwig hide enabled Mute buttons?
21:57 Quantization, Quantization..., Quantize Audio...
23:16 Is it possible to replicate a Track without its clips? Like in Logic?
24:01 Just record one Bar less, Bitwig.
24:50 The Pitch shift's UI and other inaccessible elements.
26:20 Can I get back the legacy Bitwig's clip corners?
