Bitwig Connect 4/12 – More than an audio interface

The Bitwig Connect 4/12 is not just an audio interface. It is an all-in-one solution that combines an audio/MIDI interface, monitor controller and DAW controller. With its unique integration with Bitwig Studio and advanced features, it will take your music production to the next level.

The ultimate studio assistant

The ultimate studio assistant

The Connect 4/12 features a 360° touch-sensitive rotary encoder and six mode buttons, making it easy to adjust interface parameters or control software. Whether you’re setting input gain, adjusting the volume of two sets of monitors and your headphones, or moving the playhead and controlling high-resolution Bitwig Studio parameters, everything is at your fingertips.

The front panel provides instant visual feedback with precise input and output meters and a ring of 32 RGB LEDs around the rotary encoder, visualizing parameter values ​​and automation data. Plus, gain settings can be accessed and saved within Bitwig Studio, so you can pick up right where you left off next time.

CV combines the best of both worlds

With two DC-coupled inputs and four outputs, accessible via 3.5 mm mini jacks on the front panel, the Connect 4/12 is ideal for musicians with CV-capable hardware. This means two-way communication: from Bitwig Studio to external devices or from hardware sequencers and modulation signals to the software environment.

Thanks to factory calibration, the Connect plays pitch-perfect and offset-free with Bitwig Studio right out of the box. And since the jacks can also be used for audio signals, they function as additional inputs and outputs for line signals, making them useful for all types of users.

Audio van topklasse

The internal hardware ensures pristine recordings with every take. The Connect uses balanced connections, a premium mic preamp, and high-quality instrument/line inputs fed by proven AKM converters, allowing recordings up to 192 kHz and 24-bit resolution. This means you can capture any source with ultra-low noise – so go ahead and crank up the gain.
