Bitwig has announced its entry into hardware with the Bitwig Connect 4/12, a multi-functional audio interface designed to bridge software and hardware using Bitwig Studio. The 4/12 marks a significant development it expands its product lineup beyond software integrating audio and CV connectivity into the Grid and modulators.

Key Features

• Bitwig Integration: Features a unique "Bitwig Mode" for tight integration with Bitwig Studio. The high-resolution dial allows precise control of parameters, and the color-coded LED ring ensures clear visual feedback.
• CV and Audio I/O: Equipped with 2 DC-coupled inputs and 4 outputs for CV signals, it also handles line-level audio, making it ideal for modular synth enthusiasts and general music production.
