Novation has introduced its latest addition to the Circuit family, putting sampling in the spotlight with a host of fresh features aimed to take beatmaking to new heights.
Circuit Rhythm is a powerful and versatile sampler for making and performing beats. It allows you to record samples directly in, then slice, sculpt and resample them effortlessly. Grooves can be quantized or captured off-grid, and layers can be built up across eight sample tracks, while live sets come alive with performance FX.
The wait is finally over. The next addition to our Novation Circuit family is here to bring new life to beatmaking and turn samples in to stellar tracks. With eight sample tracks, built-in recording, performance effects, on-the-go capabilities and more, Circuit Rhythm is the beatmaker’s best friend.
