Wow as a Bass station II owner but a total synth illiterate it's gonna take a while for me to wrap my head around and digest that awesome sonic display on both you guy's part. Incredible.
This was absolutelly stellar. Seriously, Novation’s Calc and Ricky are golden for the company. There are very few if none ( except Cenk for Elektron ) other ambassadors doing similar job. These sessions with guest are priceless and help selling stuff tremendously. Not to mention theey are great musicians and know their sh*t inside out. Big respect to them and to Novation to recogňizing their talents and using them to push their product. Thank you for the treat. This was superb! Ehsan performance was amazing!!!! He should wake up at 5 each day and do these regulary. An will garly tune in to Calcs evening live session. Beautifull as it was.
As said above, it was a live stream and there were tons of comments. Just a fantastic set! Passed it on to my Sweetwater rep as it was happening and he passed it around the office. Not sure how much work got done during that time ... Hahahahahahahaha!
Ehsan , what a cracking set. Fantastic to look over your shoulder at the tweakathon in motion. (Brought my new headphones to life .)..For the sake of mischief....I plan to be pushing that through the PA in the morning to rattle the neighbourhood. 🌅
Amazing performance of both oy you! Probably I wouldn't have called this a battle either, but it doesn't matter what its called. It was a huge gig! Thank you both! (Personally I just got dragged into this form of expression watching Suzanne Ciani a while ago. In the 80's it was Mike and Jean but I had turned to different music styles then) Recently ai have bought the Circuit Tracks and the BS Ii stuff from Novation and discovered Calc's channel... Awesome that this company puts still much love in the "old" gear and has support. The way to go for me! These are great tools and I am looking forward to see how it will all speak to me. Thanks again for all the work you had to make this great great gig and the awesomeness of both of you. The freedom of expression and the lack of "must fit into a genre" is so liberating an refreshing for me. And it all was live! Thanks for this huge inspiration too! Calc, you have found a special way for me to talk to your oscilators and make them voices. Ehsan was taking me through paces. That togethers was just marvellous. All best to all of you, stay safe and please keep it coming! Cheers, Angel
@@NovationTV OK should I ? I make a list for a wish BSIII: 1- Bass Station MODULE (functions to be easy to achieve without reading those little prints) 2 - KEYS can be sorted in different ways too. 3 - Endless Rotary encoders ( I advice this ever when there is memory patch) . Lights indicators like for the monostation. 4 - Morphing Filters . Morphing in all about the filter section 5 - Compressor 6 - few effects more ....... freshing it up too.... Bass station II got a time . cheers..... 7 - Last because so impossible to be : BI-TIMBRAL . ( similarly to the osc split of the monostation but maybe even a real bitimbral capacity would be very welcome ) . People would be happy mostly with only this one bass line. cheers again
That was great!, I enjoyed both performances, I heard you say that you can also use the synth tracks as midi tracks, so I could basically have 4 midi tracks coming out of circuit tracks at the same time?
Like Novation says, Dash - I'm using both Tracks and Takt for drums. I've got Tracks on 808 duties, so all the 808 rides and hats and cymbals come from there, and the more meat'n'potatoes drums from the Takt. Turns out it's awesome to have 2 drum machines! (ha). Pop to 33:00 and that's the 808 in the Tracks going solo for example. 👨🚀
Is it possible to somehow send program change messages from the tracks to the bass station? So e.g. when I change a project on the tracks, it automatically changes to a specific patch on the bass station
That's an interesting idea but I'm afraid it isn't currently possible. Whilst Circuit Tracks can send and receive Program Change data, this kind of workflow isn't quite achievable as it is possible to assign specific Program Change data to trigger when a Project is opened. John // Novation UK 🇬🇧
aha I see that MRCC in the background, anxiously awaiting mine! Love the Bass Station 2, its my old reliable. You can cover pretty much any bass or lead need with it. Lovely jams guys!
Assembly and burn-in for the circuits boards has started this week! Waiting on the enclosures to be anodized and silk screened then we can do final assembly.
Ehsan's jam is amazing. Really awesome. Thick, groovy, and musically and harmonically pleasing.

Glad you enjoyed this! 👍
My God this is absolutely amazing, thanks for this, guys!
Glad you like it!

Thanks for your kind words, Mike! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed this 😊👍
Outstanding sets by both players. Much respect, guys!
Thanks, Peter! Glad you enjoyed this 🙌🙏
Seriously no one commented this one!? Guys, I wanted to say that you did an amazing “battle” and both of you got me high (on bass station) ❤️🙏
It was a live stream - and there were plenty of appreciative comments. It was a blast!
Thanks for your support! We're glad you enjoyed this 🙌🙏

Wow that was great! I need to spend more time delving into my Bass Station 2! Very inspiring!
Great jams! And cool to see an MRCC beta in the wild!
I love these guys! Fun to watch.

Thanks for taking the time to share this with us, Angel. We really appreciate your support 🙌🙏
If this is what you just throw together then never plan, outstanding work excellent grooves and long live the bs2
This was incredibly inspiring and intimidating to watch. Love it. It's great to see what can be created when one is knowledgeable enough. Loved it.
Thanks for your kind words. Steven. Glad you found this inspiring 😊🙌
So glad I bought BS2, 2 weeks ago
Oh CALC, that last track!
im surprised with my ADHD i totally was focused on both sets...amazing and thank you.
I love Ehsan, but damn, CALC took me to my special happy place. Bravo!!!
Wow!
I want the BSIII
BSIII? We haven't created that. What kind of thing did you have in mind exactly?
@@NovationTV OK should I ?
I make a list for a wish BSIII:
1- Bass Station MODULE (functions to be easy to achieve without reading those little prints)
2 - KEYS can be sorted in different ways too.
3 - Endless Rotary encoders ( I advice this ever when there is memory patch) . Lights indicators like for the monostation.
4 - Morphing Filters . Morphing in all about the filter section
5 - Compressor
6 - few effects more
....... freshing it up too.... Bass station II got a time .
cheers.....
7 - Last because so impossible to be : BI-TIMBRAL . ( similarly to the osc split of the monostation but maybe even a real bitimbral capacity would be very welcome ) . People would be happy mostly with only this one bass line.
cheers again
@@NovationTV Rotary encoders and a display with proper patch names would be nice. Any further and we're nearing the Peak ;-)
That was great!, I enjoyed both performances, I heard you say that you can also use the synth tracks as midi tracks, so I could basically have 4 midi tracks coming out of circuit tracks at the same time?
YES :) 🦘 🕺
Holy shit! What an amazing performance!
Is the Circuit Tracks the one making the rythm on Ehsan’s performance?
Glad you enjoyed it. Percussion is provided using samples played from both Circuit Tracks and Digitakt.
@@NovationTV Thanks for the response! Can't wait to see the Circuit Rythm in action :D
