This is the most informative tutorial I’ve found. Thanks 🙏

After playing around with it a little and watching this overview again, I think it really helps getting a grip of better using the Circuit Tracks. That's what I came up with until now and shows me that I'm using it correctly. :) Already found that for Midi1/2 I need to configure my hardware to channels 3+4. Using external gear really makes change. Didn't record a jam session with an added NTS-1 or Minifreak yet, though. Thanks for the nice tutorial!

This is the center of my entire set up. Even though my goal is crossing IDM and art rock the limits actually make creation easier for me. Before I was trying too hard with a hybrid set up. Too many sounds. Too much layering. Not nearly as fun of results or creation. This helps me keep it moving rather than being stuck nit picking little sounds for hours. It helps me appreciate the flaws.

@@mrryan7475 yes you can load your own samples. I don’t have this piece of kit anymore, but I still think it’s a brilliant groovebox. It seems to have lost some traction, but I highly suggest it.

By far the best video I've seen of demonstrating how intuitive the workflow can be for the Circuit Tracks. Earned a sub.

@@ThomannSynthesizers i think i found a video on youtube how to do it, looks doable, will give it a try this weekend

I ordered it a couple of months ago, I think it's absolutely incredible the work that Novation made with it. The workflow it's immediate and it gives to you the possibility of an amazing creativity thanks to scale function, 128 presets per synths, 8 knob parameters and all the rest! I really enjoyed this video because, even if it doesn't go deeply on "how to do it" it shows perfectly the potentiality of this instrument and how much easy is to do. The only thing that I miss on it is the scale and mutate function demonstration, for all the rest congratulations! :)

This groovebox is amazing. Can't stop to create.... 🎶👌

The tracks is my favorite groovebox you did a great 101 tutorial. The more advanced stuff is easy too. Using gate and editing patterns and individual notes etc make this really mind blowing. I have a friend using his as a slave and sequencing 8 of his synths. The options are limitless:D

I'm dying from waiting! I ordered a MIDI controller two weeks ago (arrival was supposed to be on 17th day) and I don't even know if it is even in my home country yet. I'm slowly becoming desperate lol. Hope to get it this week. Great video overall!

My drum pattern samples sound horrible. Please dont tell me I have to download different samples for this. I wanted to play music out of the box but these drums dont sound anywhere close to that. All 4 patterns too

Isn't the studio called "the Styx" like the river to the underworld? Or ist it like description says "sticks" which has no sense I could see here.

It was named by REEF Bassplayer Jack Bessant, who had popped over to do some recording. I'd just moved and set up the studio. He remarked, 'It's like being out in The Sticks' - Thus the studio was named! Hadn't thought of that association - but, wow that's cool too! //Jason

You lost me on scenes . I cant see or find scenes on my circuit tracks . Any chance you could slow that section down and tell me what buttons to press please

I love what you're doing, but you're going soo fast! Luckily I have the ability to pause, lol. Just adding the first 2 drum sounds, if done one after the other like you did all the sequences would be kick drums. I've never seen anyone doing the same way. I had to do it a few times to just wrap my head around doing things differently, WHY it works this way AND what mistakes that can happen. Maybe just take time pointing out what's going on? Although I suppose I had to figure out all of that on my own. Just from following along, so if THAT'S what you had in mind?!? Cheers! Haha, I'm going to be checking out more of your stuff.
