Download the system updater here. Simply log in and connect your Circuit to your Mac® or PC running Chrome™ or Components Standalone. Make songs We've expanded what’s possible with the Patterns view, allowing you to now make complex sequences of patterns and pattern chains. There's a new Pattern Chain Sequence function, from which you can select up to 32 patterns and 16 chains of patterns in any order. You can repeat patterns and chains and build up your sequence, navigating easily between sequences. Toggle the append setting to add patterns and chains to an existing pattern sequence, even when playing. Create Tied/Drone Notes Each step now has a tie-forward setting, so it's now possible to tie notes together in order to create drone notes and long ambient pads. Take your music off the grid It's now possible to take your music off the grid by delaying notes on a step from one to five ticks (each step is divided up into six ticks). It's also possible to use Synth Micro-nudge to create new, more complex rhythms like triplets across the beat. Ideas in Seconds. Tracks in Minutes. Circuit inspires, straight out the box. Combining two-part synthesiser and a four-part drum machine with a 4x8 RGB velocity-sensitive grid sequencer -- you'll be finding cool musical directions and creating electronic grooves in no time. Standalone Creativity Compact, battery powered and with built-in speakers, Circuit is about getting creative whenever and wherever inspiration strikes. Build entire tunes from scratch without a laptop, then save them and play them back live. Of course, Circuit will also plug in to your sound system and work with your computer and other synth gear too.
