Combining powerful music production software with innovative hardware, Bitwig offers a modern workflow designed for musicians, producers, composers, sound designers, and performers who want complete creative freedom.

Bitwig Connect 4/12: More Than an Audio Interface

At first glance, the Bitwig Connect 4/12 appears to be a premium USB audio interface. In reality, it’s far more than that.

Designed and engineered by Bitwig in Germany, Connect 4/12 combines a high-resolution audio interface, monitor controller, MIDI and CV interface, and dedicated Bitwig Studio controller into one beautifully engineered desktop unit. Its innovative touch-sensitive control dial, integrated OLED-style LED feedback, monitor control functions, DAW transport controls, and seamless Bitwig Mode integration make it the perfect companion for modern music production.

Whether you’re recording vocals, integrating modular synthesizers via CV, controlling your DAW, or mixing through premium AKM converters at up to 24-bit/192kHz, Connect 4/12 keeps everything within easy reach.

Bitwig Connect 4/12 embraces this reality with USB-C connectivity, MIDI I/O, DC-coupled CV inputs and outputs, balanced audio connections, premium microphone preamps, dedicated monitor controls, and class-compliant operation across macOS, Windows, and Linux.
