The Ultimate Novation Circuit Rhythm Tutorial

[@leftheavy.]

Late to the party, but recently ordered a Circuit Rhythm as my first dedicated sampler. I had been having little luck wrapping my head around the workflow until finding this video. This took me from hopeless to relatively fluent in only a few viewings, and now it’s one of my favorite pieces of gear! Can’t overstate how helpful this was. Thanks for doing what you do!

[@edgarcortes]

Gracias from Colombia! Great tutorial I’ll keep coming back to and far superior than Novation’s tutorial series. We all love Ricky Tiñez but my god were those 1min videos useless. Your content is great and the only way is up! ✌️

[@GabeMillerMusic]

Glad the video was helpful! I love Ricky, I'm guessing his videos on Novation's insta are more demonstrations than tutorials.

[@edgarcortes]

@@GabeMillerMusic Yeah you’re totally right on those clips… What actually sold me on this awesome machine was a video of Ricky walking around with a goofy pink mic sampling with the Rhythm a bunch of stuff in a park 😄 Making music with found sounds and cinematic foley is my jam! And after watching that I stumbled into your videos and the deal was done. Your technical know-how and great attitude is very encouraging. Now I feel like an expert on this thing. This community is so great creative and helpful that folks like you, Liam Killem, MaloBeats, Ricky etc really get me excited to create. Keep it up !🤟

[@whitefluffycloud]

I just bought a Circuit Rhythm as a first time electronic music user (life long guitar player). Your videos have been super helpful getting to know this new little machine. Thank you!

[@wetwork6553]

Previously I was a bit underwhelmed, but after watching this and a few other videos I'm starting to get excited. I'll take simplicity over an abundance of bells and whistles any day!

[@PodOfHeat]

I keep coming back to this excellent video, it really is the best circuit rhythm tutorial out there!! Thanks Gabe 😊

[@TheKrang10]

Is it really? Having a tough time following as a complete beginner. Moves way too fast.

[@Avslappnandeljud]

@@TheKrang10 Yeah, it's super fast but you need to watch it multiple times and come back to it every now and then, just like with anything you want to learn really.

21:08 I0m having trouble with this... I mean, i can chop the sample and it's all good, but when i try to record the slices (In a diferent way that the loop is played) its alll moved form where i record it... Also when i press play, the 16 pads of the top are not going in line, it seems that its just random.... @gabemillermusic

Gabe Miller Music , I sincerely appreciate your channel and help! As you are the one that has been a life saver as far as pointing me to the hardware that would suet me well as a first time groove box buyer and helping me with a great introduction. I truly thank you for your help Gabe Miller Music! I chose the Novation Circuit Rhythm because of your helpful videos . Can't wait to dig in it should arrive tomorrow! My goal may be unusual but i hope to incorporate this into my drum playing with my Roland td 17 Electric drum set . I'm not entirely sure how this will turn out . I'm a drum player lol and a armature at that . But Im exited to explore the possibility of coupling E drum playing with groove box support . Who knows i may just grow into loving soloing groove boxing I would not be surprised. Thanks a bunch . Thank you Gabe Miller Music, Your videos are incredibly helpful and easy to follow. A question for anybody that could help. A stand to put the Novation Circuit Rhythm on so I may interact with it while drumming? Help from any response is appreciated , thank you!

Thank you for your content. I can not find videos specifically for Patterns & Scenes Play. Please where to find the propper workflow to have scences and patterns propperly set up? (Mute + chains of pattern + chains of scenes) Quite complex to understand what is happening some time.

[@LiftedNoise]

Dope this thing looks more and more fun each video. It looks like in drum pad mode when you where finger drumming that it was behaving polyphonically. I didn't see any sounds cutting out.

[@GabeMillerMusic]

It's a good time! In drum pad mode, each pad is an entire track, which is why it behaves polyphonically.

[@LiftedNoise]

@@GabeMillerMusic oh wow that's awesome!! I'm happy about that, I was hoping I could do some fingerdrumming! Thanks for the videos 🙏

[@dinogoldie9716]

19:30 I'm finding the sample-chopping segment a little difficult to follow. I know how to select whether a sample is "keyboard/slices" and how to pick whether it's 4, 8 or 16 slices. So far, so good. I also know how to manually tweak the start/end points of those slices using the macro knobs 2 (start), 3 (end) and, 4 (envelope). However, you lost me when explaining how to tap in the slice points. How do I do that? How do I play a longer sample and tap in slice points? (what key combos do I need to do to get to that?). Thanks and sorry for the dumb question.

[@GabeMillerMusic]

All good! Once you've selected how many slices you want, you can hit the Note button, like you would when expanding the range of notes you can play on the Tracks. That takes you into a window to manually set chop points as the sample plays. You initiate the chopping by hitting the pad at the very top left, if I recall correctly. It's either that one or one that's two down from it (I'm answering this on my phone in crappy wifi so I can't double check it at the moment). From there you just hit pads in order as the sample plays to set the following chop points. Hopefully that makes a bit more sense.

[@dinogoldie9716]

​@@GabeMillerMusic Many thanks for this explanation. it turns out live slicing is a feature of firmware version 1.1 and I was still running 1.0. That's why I couldn't follow your video. Thanks again.

[@marcgelinas5631]

[@GizzyDillespee]

Each time you say something like "Oh that's a little too much, but you get the idea" I keep thinking no, take it further! I can't argue with Ron Burgundy "Stay classy!" but sometimes I wonder what lives along the edges. These will be widely available soon, will try.

[@GabeMillerMusic]

I've definitely pushed some stuff pretty far with some hyperpop and bass music inspired stuff. I'll definitely continue to push it!

[@thekatspyjamaz]

Hi Gabe Miller, Great and very useful video but I still have an unresolved mystery, which is, how to record the tempo for a particular project/pattern....I'd like a different tempo according to different projects but each time I change the project, and so, the tempo, the machine records this last tempo for all the other projects....how can i do???? Thanks in advance for your answers! Juliette

[@plumcharlie]

Glad to see this thing has probability. Thanks for showing. I’d love to see a video showing the sync ( both midi & 3.5 mm) sync with external gear. Also, how does it do with loading patterns into the DAW like ableton? Does it take it as midi info or is everything converted to audio? Thanks again

[@GabeMillerMusic]

To load patterns into a DAW, you'll either need to just record the stereo output or headphone jack, or record midi. It can't do multitrack audio unfortunately.

[@synth-studio]

To me, the most annoying part about the Rhythm is the "packs" concept, and how you load samples onto it. I mean, the web-app works fine, but it's so unconventional and makes me rely on an internet connection and a web browser. That being said, once the samples are in there, it's a ton of fun. Personally, I haven't hit the sample length limitation yet, but I totally understand how others might hit that and find it to be a serious limitation. Nice work, Gabe, as always!

[@vertigev]

Thanks Gabe!

[@ticketstomars]

Gabe, thank you for this tutorial. How to select a sample without hearing it? Handy for live situations

[@GabeMillerMusic]

Glad it was helpful! There's no official way to do it, the only way I can think of is to turn the volume of the track all the way down in the mixer view. It's a bit cumbersome, but I tried it and it does work.

[@crowfoot7355]

Thanks Gabe

[@philippeedwards5813]

Novation, if you are reading: If you give me the option of sampling the L R inputs into two tracks and a way to chop them the same way so i can have a stereo sample, I'm buying it right now. If you make it so we have 16 pads multitarck playing (instead of the actual 8) this thing could become really popular amongst finger drummers. If you have those, I'll be buying 3 of these.

[@philippeedwards5813]

btw thanks Gabe for your amazing tutorials!

[@LiftedNoise]

Definitely 16 pads would be awesome! Put that shift button in effect on tracks and add 8 more 😎

[@Sequencer_JY]

Hi Gabe! Love your channel, and bought my first Novation (Rhythm) about a week ago. Love this tutorial, and I know my way around somewhat and have made a decent start, but I cannot yet fully wrap my head around the sort of meta-topics of it surrounding where my specific beats live, how to see all 32 steps when my sequence is playing, does your recorded pattern exist within the loaded sample pack or independently, and questions like this. I know you have done many tutorials on the Circuit Tracks, but would be great if you could consider another more in-depth look at the Ryhthm from the viewpoint of someone who is not experienced in the concepts of the tracks. Anyway either way I appreciate your channel and the decide is awesome. I almost returned it right away but after a few days I am getting the hang of it much more.

Can you control this sampler using a midi keyboard? If so, do I need a specific keyboard? Or will any MIDI Keyboard that has Midi ports do it?

[@raoniband]

Greetings Gabe and fellow Circuit Rhythm users! About a way to transpose chords in Circuit Rhythm... Can I record a C major chord, and play the sampled chord on Rhythm's note keyboard? Wouldn't the chord be transposed correctly on a harmonic scale? I'm sorry if my music theory is mistaken, but would it not result like: C, C#, D, D#, E, F, and so on when the chord is played on a harmonic scale?... If this works, I can sample the chords: C, Cm, and C7 on any instrument, to be able to play most of the common chords. Is this a viable way to workarround the lack of polyphony on the Rhythm device?

[@PaulSalamoneComedy]

Gabe i’ve been thinking a lot lately of finally getting one of these, but i was checking it out at our local music store the other day and - is it just me? - are the rhythm-related GridFX (beat repeat, stutter) somehow slightly offbeat? maybe it was just the machine i was using, but for me that’s a deal breaker

[@NicleT]

I know I’m one year late, but can you overdub on the same sample while in the recording process?

[@DopamineOverload]

Hey Gabe, another question. When you create a Scene, does the Scene take priority over Pattern play? Seems to be the case, for me. I'm on the latest firmware. If a Scene is selected, you can't be in Pattern View and customize what patterns are playing.. it will always play the Scene, instead. Not commonly talked about, with both this, and Circuit Tracks.

[@GabeMillerMusic]

Scenes are just collections of patterns, so launching a scene will launch the patterns it contains and override whatever you had selected before that. Once a scene is launched, you can switch between patterns, it just won't save that new combination unless you save that as a scene as well.

[@DopamineOverload]

@@GabeMillerMusic Gocha. Also, no way to trigger Scenes instantly? Always have to wait til the end of a bar?

[@jakubberan2720]

@@DopamineOverload I think if you hold shift and press scene it will happen

[@IC-Alchemy]

I'll be making one soon, I've been using the circuit rhythm synced with a loop pedal via midi, and synced with a Korg Miniloge with the sync. Have guitar and the minilogue sent into the sample inputs on the circuit, so I can live sample and chop guitar and synth its amazing!!! Should have a video up on my channel today or tomorrow

[@jmichell1880]

Can you chain Projects in the same way as Scenes and Patterns, or do you have to switch between them live as they play? I'm used to pattern chaining entire songs as the main form of composing and arrangement, and trying to see if this device can fit that workflow

[@BecomingProductions]

It does seem a great device. I was about to order one when I noticed somebody in my area selling a Maschine Plus in the local classifieds. I actually had one already and hated it, mostly due to the underpowered CPU. I was probably trying to do too much with it so I figured Ill give it another try and try to keep more reasonable expectations. I got it for only a small amount more than a new Circuit Rhythm costs (thats how much the Maschine Plus has dropped in resale value) so I figured its at least on par with the what I could do with Circuit Rhythm. Hopefully it was a wise choice but I guess time will tell. There may be a cheap Maschine Plus going for sale again if this doesnt work out 😅

[@edtuckerartist]

Pressed Shift and Clear/Click and hear no Click?

[@Saganite]

My understanding from reading the manual, and from comments Novation made related to videos for the Launchpad Pro mk3, is that velocity is set for an entire step, not just an individual component of that step. So in your hi hat example, if a kick or snare shared one of the steps that you reduced the velocity on, it too would have a drop in velocity. Is that correct?

[@Saganite]

Or are hi hats and kicks going to be on separate parallel tracks so velocity is set independently?

[@GabeMillerMusic]

The second thing, the velocity is separate for each track. So if your kicks and hi hats are on different tracks, which they probably will be, the velocity will be set independently.

[@Saganite]

@@GabeMillerMusic I appreciate the quick helpful reply! I was considering the Launchpad to pair with a Volca Sample until I discovered this thing. Thanks for the helpful videos

[@adamdoran235]

[@userk3]

Hi, can I use the Circuit Rhythm for the creating beats without external devices? And can I import mp3 files to sample them exclusively on the Circuit Rhytm?

[@GabeMillerMusic]

Yep, it works by itself, no external devices needed. You do need to connect it to a computer to load in sounds, or connect a device to its audio input(s) to sample something in.

[@dejanskenderovic]

Can you change the volume of the step?

[@edtuckerartist]

What does the setup page do?

[@socialnarcotics1147]

Nice overview. Is the filter, start point end point etc applied the track or the sample? for example, can I assign the same sample to different tracks and apply a filter on one track but not the other?

[@GabeMillerMusic]

The macros are applied to the track, so if you wanted to have different settings on different samples on the same track, you'd need to do some step automation (which you can do!)

[@micindir4213]

Here's a scenario I'm considering: I have a quite a few tracks in my archive (50+) that I would like to play live. RN I'm doing ableton live set that contains multitracks for each track + midi for specific tracks like bass or sequence for external synth trigger/internal ableton instrument. As I understand you cannot put 10+ GB of stems into one project. But how much can you put into the machine for one project? Say one song is 600 MB (4 mins). Can you put those into machine? And how fast is project switching happening? Also is there a way to Pre-listen (cue) instruments/click before sending it to output?

[@GabeMillerMusic]

I don't think the Rhythm is going to do what you're looking for. The total sample time that a single project can hold is 3.7 minutes, so that already kills that idea unfortunately. You also can't audition stuff before listening to it like you could on a DJ mixer. Project switching brings the new project in with the beat exactly like a pattern, which is really nice, and there's a button press combo to make it happen instantaneously as well.

[@Early-Adopter]

Anyone else have an issue where loops trigger slower than the tempo and catch up after a couple seconds? It’s driving me crazy.

[@omenjh]

Hi Gabe, thanks for the video, most helpful. One question… when slicing on the unit, can you have two different slice samples in one track? So like on a normal track you can flip and have a kick and snare, I would like to know if you can have chops from different chopped breaks? If not can you choke the breaks on different tracks

[@GabeMillerMusic]

I'm not sure if you can switch between different samples that you've chopped, but yes, you can send tracks to a choke group.

[@omenjh]

@@GabeMillerMusic Cool thanks, I’m looking at getting one.. the choke on different parts would work on some jungle choppage with a resample and chop of the final sample.

@@GabeMillerMusic awesome, thanks man!

[@filmingkey]

Is it true that to export your beat you have to play each track through the output and record manually? Wow this is super inconvenient. I guess it's not a deal breaker but just feels antiquated and time consuming.

[@GabeMillerMusic]

You do have to do that if you want the individual tracks. Or you can launch patterns live to perform a track and record everything as is and just roll with it. It's not always the most polished in the world, but it's definitely possible to get a solid mix on just the Circuit by itself.

[@filmingkey]

@@GabeMillerMusic I appreciate the quick response. I guess I can setup the patterns in a way where each track plays solo one after another so that I can record it in one go. Then chop on the daw. That's not too bad.

I love what Novation does with their instruments, but it just really grinds my gears that they announce and release new gear and then make you wait three weeks for stock to get ready.

It's frustrating to customers who just want to get their hands on the new gear, but I digress. Great video Gabe.

Are you able to use mutiple packs per project? And the 220 sec limitation, is that per project or per pack?

The packs contain samples AND projects. So you can switch between multiple projects inside of one pack, but not the other way around (switching between packs takes some loading time). The 220 second limitation is per pack.
