Novation circuit
Re: Novation circuit
These days I've got it stripped back to a virus, and 2 basic soft synths mapped to midi controllers for the knob joy. I honestly don't want more. Serum, dune etc are great I'm sure, but I like it simplified. Googling more about Circuit, I kind of want to want it, but think I might be wasting £££ and time, and it will end up in my techno toy box

Hold up. Are you suggesting the goal of working on music isn’t only to be one of the last 3 performing artists on the main stage at a music festival?Tarekith wrote:There's something to be said for just having fun and messing around away from the computer for a bit.

Like banging a saucepan with a mallet and sticking a tambourine up your arse. Good groove. Like the beat
Re: Novation circuit
I'm actually more interested in the Circuit as a midi controller for Ableton.I've already asked Novation if there is a dedicated Remote Script for Live but all i got as a reply is "you can already control Live with the Circuit" (uh ? thankyouverymuch).I know i can bluehand control Live with it as i can with any other midi controller but i'm curious what could be done with a specific script.I mean, the Circuit has so many hardware controls it would make it almost ideal as a controller for Live.
Re: Novation circuit
Are you looking for some sort of Session control? As Novation said it can already be used with Live, the Sequencer outputs on three seperate MIDI channels which you can house your own instruments and effect on...
What would a Circuit script need to have...

Re: Novation circuit
Well honestly, just look at the thing.
I mean it has 10 knobs,numerous buttons and whatnot so obviously a dedicated script would turn the Circuit into something like a hybrid of the Launchpad Pro, LP95 and the Push, .i.e offer Session, Mixer, User, Note,Step Sequencer modes, device control etc.
Novations claim "it can alreadsy be used with Live" is all they say without specifiying in *which way* it can work as a controller or if there's a script included or how dedicated it is or if all they are talking about is manual blue hand assignment (thanksyoualreadyknewthat).
From their site: "Circuit will also work as a standard USB-MIDI controller." Uh yeah, thank you.I can imagine they didn't write a specific script for the Circuit to make it not too powerful so to avoid inhouse competition with the Launchpad Pro..?
Now let's wait for Buleriachk to troll this thread saying these features are not needed in his opinion but what he would rather like to see on the Launchpad Pro....

Re: Novation circuit
This was my thinking, at the moment it's impossible to create a script for it as the unit itself doesn't have a dumb mode...beatz01 wrote:Well honestly, just look at the thing.

Re: Novation circuit
Please don't, it would be nice to keep this thread on a path that could actually shape how the script works...
Novation have never intended the Circuit to be an Ableton Live Controller, it's an instrument/groovebox that happens to have a very appealing layout for use as a controller...
It already has Step Sequencer Modes which for me are more intuitive than the Push.... so it will be the Session Mode that it would benefit from....

Re: Novation circuit
Maybe the designers of your motorcycle should have considered its musical potential and given it a session overview button
