Features & Capabilities

Hands-on control of Bitwig Studio from your iPad or iPhone. Wireless, low-latency, and built for the way you actually work — in the studio, anywhere.

R-KONTROL is the hands-on remote for Bitwig Studio. Mix, launch clips, ride faders, tweak remote controls, and shape grooves from your iPad or iPhone. Wireless, immediate, and built for the way you actually work. R-KONTROL puts the parts of Bitwig you actually touch right under your fingers, anywhere in your studio. No MIDI workarounds, no controller learning curves. Install the free R-KONTROL Connector extension in Bitwig, open the app, and you're connected.

WHAT YOU CAN CONTROL Transport: Play, stop, record, loop, punch in/out, scrub the timeline, toggle the metronome, manage automation, jump between cue markers. Mixer: Volume, pan, sends and crossfader on every track. Mute, solo, arm. Stereo VU metering. Main and effect tracks share one unified bank, always visible. No bank switching. Clip Launcher: Launch and stop clips, fire scenes, retrigger all playing clips with a single button. Tap a selected clip launcher track again to reveal pan, volume, mute, solo and arm, with no detour through the mixer. Remote Controls: Eight touch-friendly faders per page for the selected device or track. Two-value parameters toggle on tap. Page through parameter pages and the device chain without leaving the view. Groove: Shuffle and Accent with Amount, Phase and Rate, right where you need them. Scenes & Cue Markers: Trigger scenes, jump between markers, page forward and back. Devices: Browse and select devices in the current track's chain. See what's selected at a glance.

HOW IT CONNECTS R-KONTROL talks to Bitwig over your local Wi-Fi network using OSC. Install the free R-KONTROL Connector extension in Bitwig, launch the app, and it finds your machine automatically. A shared secret keeps the connection yours.

UNDER THE HOOD GPU-accelerated VU metering and animation. Native SwiftUI. Built for landscape use on iPad and iPhone, with a dark interface that gets out of the way.

REQUIREMENTS • Bitwig Studio (with the free R-KONTROL Connector extension installed) • iPad or iPhone on the same local network as your Bitwig machine

User Reviews

It helps to update the extension on the Mac.
by a.*****, 2024-12-27

There’s issues, mostly about how the app seems to update the current status of project. Makes it annoying to use beyond basic control. Response time is noticeable slowe when compared to other OSC applications I was really hoping this app would be like the “Touchable Pro” app for Ableton which is fantastic, but this just under delivers and fails occasionally when doing simple stuff.
