The unfortunate counterpoint is there are an equal number of things that are clunky and unintuitive in Bitwig. It's also not nearly as friendly and intuitive when being used as a live looper.

How many bitwig users here use it in a live performance context?

Not sure if it’s even possible, my evaluation was for my use cases only of course.

I probably use 10% of bigwig and 2% of Ableton. So the important factor is whether something is missing in Bitwig, and how polished/intuitive the bits I do use are.

For what it's worth, the superb modulation options in bitwig are what lead to me attempting (and failing) to replace ableton with it.

With the new grid it’s fantastic.

Also they should call it Bigwig since everyone’s autocomplete seems to insist on it.
