About Course

Unlock a new dimension of sound design with Modulation in Bitwig, a comprehensive course led by producer and multi-instrumentalist Thavius Beck, known for his work with artists like Nas, Nine Inch Nails, and Skylar Grey. This deep-dive into Bitwig Studio’s powerful modulation environment is perfect for producers who want to break free from static sounds and add dynamic movement, texture, and complexity to their music.

Across 20 expertly crafted lessons, Thavius introduces you to the core principles of modulation and guides you through the wide array of modulator devices available in Bitwig. You'll explore envelope modulation, low-frequency oscillators (LFOs), step sequencers, and XY controls—each providing unique ways to animate parameters and bring your music to life. From subtle rhythmic pulses to wildly evolving sonic landscapes, you'll learn how to design modulation paths that suit any style or genre.

This course goes far beyond basic automation. You'll harness advanced tools like audio sidechain modulation, note-triggered envelopes, and voice stacking to produce expressive and engaging sounds. By the end of the course, you'll not only know how to use modulation in Bitwig, but also why and when to apply each modulator for maximum creative impact. Whether you're a sound designer, electronic music producer, or simply looking to expand your Bitwig workflow, this course equips you with a rich modulation toolkit to transform your productions.
