Novation has announced firmware version 1.4 of Circuit, the grid-based groove box featuring 2 polysynths, a drum machine and a sequencer.
Since its launch over a year ago, our regular updates to Circuit have brought transformative new features to the mighty groovebox. From Sample Import and Sample Flip to the Components suite of browser-based utilities, Circuit’s capabilities have gone from strength to strength with every new Firmware release.
Circuit v1.4 brings yet more features to Circuit, making it an even more powerful addition to any live or studio performance system.
Changes in Circuit firmware v1.4

- Session Colour Select – Now available from the unit; change your Session colour when saving.
- Clock Settings – Improved setup page with more versatile MIDI control. Separate transmit and receive settings for MIDI clock.
