Changes in Bitwig Studio 6.1.1 [released 03 September 2026]

Improvements

• Added mappable actions for Zoom In Arranger Lane Heights (Selection) and Zoom Out Arranger Lane Heights (Selection), to zoom only the selected lanes/tracks

Fixes

• Sampler device/Grid module fixes:
  • Spectral mode + Freeze Playhead now sounds nicer at note on [7166]
  • Fragments mode: Grid module no longer places grains differently than the device [7237]
  • Spectral Quality / Cost setting is now saved, reloaded properly [7161]
  • Rapidly repeating notes are no longer silent [7144]
  • Grid module now properly imports all parameter values from old projects/presets [7150]
  • Undo action is better at grouping actions (instead of skipping back too many steps, in some cases) [7162]
  • Remote controls and modulations mapped to parameters that used to be available (such as Play Mode, Envelope Mode, Freeze Playhead) are now properly removed
• Arpeggiator (Note FX) device: Is no longer out-of-sync after duplicating tracks with the transport stopped [6889]
• Pressing transport stop twice returns to bar 1, beat 1 in all cases (a regression) [6482]
• Select All action in the Launcher works more reliably when group tracks are present [7143]
• [SHIFT]-clicking a range of Launcher clips selects them more reliably when group tracks are present [7143]
• Play from Left Edge of Current Editor action jumps to the right position in all cases now [7125]
• Moving an Arranger time selection now moves any included cue markers (instead of copying them) [7015]
• Zooming a selected automation lane's height is now more reliable (not changing the track height as well) [7240]
• Certain large projects no longer crash on open, as well as other memory management improvements
• Fixed a crash when deleting an automation lane while it is shown [5951]
• Windows and macOS: The DSP meter now flashes red when the device reports an overload
• Windows with ASIO: Audio interface is no longer closed with "Device is no longer responding", etc., when the CPU cannot keep up in real time [7177]
• macOS: Support for M5, M6 "performance" cores (as allocated by macOS)
• macOS: Audio engine no longer crashes at startup when the MIDI system could not be initialized (it now starts without MIDI and shows a notification) [5778]
• A very, very large number of installed fonts no longer causes problems, like browser freezes [7139]
