Bitwig Connect

The Bitwig Connect 4/12 Audio Interface is perfect for musicians, producers, and sound designers seeking a versatile and streamlined workflow. It combines an audio interface, MIDI and CV connectivity and DAW control into a compact device - making it an ideal choice for studio and live settings.

Equipped with AKM converters, the Connect delivers high-quality recordings at up to 24-bit/192kHz, ensuring your sound is captured with precision. Two DC-coupled CV inputs and four outputs provide seamless integration of external hardware with your software. This makes it easy to sync and control modular gear, synths, or other MIDI-enabled devices directly through the interface.

The Connect's standout feature is its integration with Bitwig Studio. Its dedicated Bitwig Mode allows intuitive hands-on control for writing automation, adjusting parameters, and navigating timelines. Hover over a control, then lock it by double-tapping the touch-sensitive dial for precise adjustments. Six mode buttons make it easy to switch between functions like gain adjustment, volume control, or playhead movement, streamlining your creative process.

Seamless DAW control

The Bitwig Connect 4/12 provides direct control over your DAW, making it easier to adjust settings and navigate your projects. In Bitwig Mode, the touch-sensitive dial and six mode buttons allow you to set gain levels, adjust playback, and fine-tune parameters. The 32 RGB LED ring provides clear visual feedback, showing parameter values and automation in real time. Hovering over a control with your cursor lets you access it instantly, and a quick double-tap locks it in place for easy adjustments.

High-quality audio performance

Delivering top-tier audio quality, the Bitwig Connect 4/12 is equipped with AKM converters that support up to 24-bit/192kHz resolution. This ensures your recordings maintain exceptional clarity, with minimal noise and distortion. Balanced inputs and a premium mic preamp allow for detailed captures of vocals, instruments, and line-level sources.

Whether you’re tracking live performances or layering studio recordings, Connect provides a reliable signal path that maintains the integrity of your sound. You can confidently push gain levels without introducing unwanted noise.

Flexible CV and MIDI integration

The Bitwig Connect 4/12 excels at integrating external gear into your workflow, thanks to its two DC-coupled inputs and four outputs. This makes it easy to connect modular synths, sequencers, and other CV-enabled hardware. You can send modulation signals from Bitwig Studio to your gear or receive control signals from your hardware back into your software. Factory calibration ensures accurate pitch tracking with minimal setup, so you can focus on creating music instead of troubleshooting connections. The CV jacks can also be used for additional audio ins and outs, adding even more flexibility to your studio setup.

Built to last and ready to go

Designed with durability in mind, the Bitwig Connect 4/12 features a rugged steel chassis that can withstand the demands of travel and performance. Its compact design makes it easy to fit into any setup, whether you’re working from a home studio or performing on stage. The USB-C connection provides power directly from your computer, eliminating the need for an external power supply. This makes it an ideal companion for mobile producers who need a reliable interface they can take anywhere.

Intuitive workflow enhancements

Connect offers features that streamline your creative process. The ability to save gain settings within Bitwig Studio allows you to pick up right where you left off without needing to reconfigure levels each time. The LED ring not only provides feedback on parameter values but also adapts to match the colour of the selected track or parameter, helping you stay focused on your project. These small but effective touches make Connect a powerful addition to any workflow, providing an intuitive way to manage your sessions with minimal effort.

Enhanced software compatibility

With the release of Bitwig Studio 5.3, Connect takes full advantage of new features like Combined Audio Devices, allowing macOS and Linux users to integrate multiple interfaces into a single audio routing setup. This expands your options for recording and monitoring, giving you even greater flexibility when working with complex projects. The auto-configuration feature ensures that Connect is ready to use straight away, reducing setup time and letting you focus on making music.
