    Great video. I just bought a Novation Circuit from Facebook Market Place. The seller said it was partically new & upgraded to the newer Circuit & sold it to me for £120 fully boxed...Happy days.

    Thank you Mark. Your video was very helpful and very well presented. I've already put a deposit down for a Novation Circuit after I an in-store demonstration but I've never had a drum machine before. So I'm very new to it.

    Want to note that on my product, I cannot stay in live view unless I continue to hold the note button while I play on the four pad view. Otherwise it automatically goes back into note view.

    can I also extract samles from f.e. disco records and than edit them into a new record like Daft Punk used to do? Or do I need other hardware (and maybe software) for it?

  • @micheal2489

    Easy to use except for the synth With unmarked pads it’s hard to stay on track with the notes Not like a Midi keyboard any suggestions would help Thanks

  • @st8kout961
    @st8kout961 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I find that it really could use a "Reset" button for starting over, after you've experimented around with it. Even without saving it, it picks up up where you left off last time you turned it off. You have to unplug it to remove previous settings

      If the session you use it blank, you can retap the selected “session” to clear all.
      I normally delete everything from the pattern page. I just “clear” all the bars in “patterns” so I can still use the same synths and drums I selected.

  • @nhaezer5121
    @nhaezer5121 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Does this have ready made beats, say rock, jazz with variations and fills - like you have on some drum machines and keyboard workstations? ie acoustic sounding beats that you can perform/sing along to?

    How can I connect my novation circuit and the Launchkey mk3 mini ?
    I've been trying with midi cables and trs but I don't get any sound.
    someoe can help me please :)

    • @johnyboii12
      @johnyboii12 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      you have to "repatch" your cable, cause this two devices use different midi standard ("A" and "B") - so the tip of minijack on one end have to be connected with the ring of the other.

    Thanks for this... Q Because you have no screen to monitor
    what your doing, how do you set your bpm's?
    You had a side cam view at the time you were covering this
    which didn't let us see how you got to 120 bpm?
    cheers

    • @v0Xx60
      @v0Xx60 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The buttons light up showing the current BPM. You can see it in the video (admitelly not super clearly) that when he changes the tempo that the lights make up a sort of low-res number.

      Yes, but if you have a computer, you can export and import samples and patches, and these can even be bought, to make your circuit sound different.
      Since the Circuit also sends midi, you can also use it to controle a VST or otter device

      The Kaossilator might’ve had infinite layers, but it had no editing, no quantization, no visual of the pattern. It’s a trade off where I heavily prefer the circuit personally
