Ive been a NI customer for decades, and 6 months on Bitwig. I became very good at routing and configuring maschine inside cubase, and can easily build and route 8, 12, 16 maschine groups and have them easily reading/writing midi and playing everything fine without a template. In Cubase.
I switched to Bitwig, and found difficulty in routing more than 1 maschine group, regardless of config. I learned all about Driven by Moss and used that script inside Bitwig, but no matter what I did the routing for multiple groups wouldnt work.
I fell back to my own minimal solution, which is 1 instrument track with maschine2 and 1 instrument track with input set to the first track's midi output. The second track captures the midi coming from track 1, and track 1 plays the audio. This wont work for more than 1 group, and Ive resigned myself to this. (Im slowly moving away from NI)
Then I saw a post on Native Instruments today with a mod claiming "its super simple"(to route maschine inside Bitwig), and they showed a recorded clip without routing exposed. I asked for the routing instructions but never heard back. The thread is here, if anyone cares:
https://community.native-instruments.co ... ine-3-0/p1
Has ANYONE successfully routed even ONE SINGLE maschine group inside Bitwig, on ONE instrument track with settings that work for both PLAYING audio, RECORDING midi into Bitwig's arranger, and PLAYING BACK those midi notes once recorded? I am NOT using the internal sequencer in maschine, and have no interest in it. I thought I had settled this debate months ago, but now NI brings it back...
Edit: I also see this thread here on KVR.

At the end of that thread, people say "ah hah! I finally got it working", but I dont see the actual routing config for bitwig + maschine in the thread.
