Novation Circuit Midi Controller Sequencer

I use it as a MIDI keyboard, a sequencer, an arpeggiator, and then do all of that with the CV too. It's great.

The Novation Circuit Tracks is by far the greatest groovebox ever built. I bought the original Circuit the week it came out in 2015, fell in love instantly, and over the years trained myself to sequence better parts. The Circuit Tracks is a fantastic follow up with two additional MIDI lanes, newly added scene functionality, and an expanded sequencer featuring step duration for each individual pattern. The sound engine appears the same as on the original Circuit but the original Circuit had a bit of digital hum to it and that has completely been removed. The delay and reverb effects are quite useful at low settings for creating ambience and at longer settings quite useful at creating washes of sound. All the knobs make real-time tweaking a joy and all the macro knobs can be recorded in your sequences for looped use. The Novation Components editor is quite good for patch design and as a librarian for backing up your sessions. I wasn't able to use my microSD card with this, as it wouldn't usually stay in and, when I did get it in, it would not copy my entire session to a new session slot. I do think this was a defect of my unit and not a consistent hardware error. This thing is great for the studio and perfect for DAWless jams but my dream is to really get nitty gritty with it and tour with it. I believe that's what Novation would want.

I use this to connect my Novation Launchkey Mini MK3 (which has a Type-A TRS 1/8 MIDI Out connection on the back) to the 5-pin MIDI In connection on the back of my recently-purchased Novation Circuit Tracks. Works like a charm!

there's now midi out with the usb connection,,, i think its pretty good the sequencer itself is pretty high quality and sturdy, its my first real piece of audio gear and i think it's alright really easy to use, has lots of cool features but it takes some time to really get good at using it there are only 16 steps in the sequencer and you can't reduce the amount. that's the only bad thing about it. also it comes with 150 samples

This keyboard creates both MIDI and CV and it's also a sequencer and a drum-machine and everything you would like to have. It makes most of my Eurorack modules so much more useful, because there are things I wouldn't do because of too much wiring, but KeyStep Pro creates all the signals, they're synchronized and it's so much easier.

sounds beautiful, like whale farts – won’t drone w/o 5V Gate or MIDI ON message (most will use MIDI keyboard or sequencer to play, although Doepfer A-119 can be a great controller/interface as well, for feeding and Gating w/ external audio). accompanying literature is good. as other's have said elsewhere, some indication of presets would be nice. Overall, excellent sounding synth. Oh ya, heads up, this is MONOphonic, so if you want to play chords, send them in the AC input. peace

holds my midi controller perfectly, real nice.

Top quality cables. Work perfectly with my midi controller.

I gave this to my son as an early Christmas present and he is very happy with the Arturia KeyStep Controller/Sequencer. Also, B&H photo has superior customer service and very fast shipment!

I use this microphone for DJing, plugs directly into my midi controller and sounds crystal clear.
