Attack Release Bloc Glasgow -CALC- Live set rehearsal

video upload by -CALC-

"I played at Attack Release in Glasgow in July 2025.
Sadly the audio from the gig recording was crocked so it didnt make it, but I did film a rehearsal a few days before. The gig itself was better than this take (of course it was ;o) and I had tweaked the set quite a bit from this for the show, but it gives the general idea of what I played.

Attack Release is an amazing night and I thoroughly recommend it if you are ever in Glasgow on the last Wednesday of the month. It has to be one of the best gigs I have played with the best crowd ever. Sad the recording of the night didnt work out though."

Metro - Trance Jam - Circuit Tracks Only Live Performance

video upload by Yarune Music

"Experience a dawless trance jam created entirely on the Novation Circuit Tracks. This track, titled 'Metro', is a live jam inspired by the rhythm and atmosphere of the Amsterdam and Munich underground systems. Pulsing basslines and clubby trance grooves come together in this one-take performance — no DAW, no edits, just raw electronic music.

I love creating with the Circuit Tracks, letting ideas flow without a screen. This performance is part of my ongoing exploration of dawless production and live electronic jamming.

If you enjoy synth jams, hardware grooves, and live trance performances, hit like and subscribe — I'll promise to create more jams for you! 🎶

Thanks for listening and watching.

Brussels School Diaries, Day 5 : "Icy Nucleus" | original electronic music jam

video upload by No Lake

"This is the penultimate 'live' jam recorded for the incoming album. The other songs are already written as well, but they will be revealed on the final album. I will now start the long mix and mastering process and hope to release the album at the beginning of 2026, basically one year after my latest album “Speaking of Analog” that you welcomed in an incredible way!

So, what's the philosophy of this story compared to the previous one? Well, the idea is to step outside the 'ambient' framework to bring a slightly more "electro" touch, but without betraying my vision of electro-ambient. It won’t be EDM. An alternation of long, intoxicating pieces with shorter, more rhythmic ones like this one.
But in the end, all of this is just the continuation of a story that has brought me here with you."

How to Recreate the Iconic Underworld Born Slippy Intro on Novation Summit and Montage/MODX

video upload by Scott's Synth Stuff

"Underworld's intro to their huge hit Born Slippy is one of the best known intros, with an iconic stab and pad sound. Dance floors the world over go crazy when they hear that identifiable sound and chord sequence. In this video I show you first how to sound design these sounds, using my Novation Summit, and then again on the Montage. However, you can use my explanation to recreate the sound on most any synthesizer. I then show you how to play the chords."

How to Remake Underworld's "Dark and Long (Dark Train)" on the Roland Fantom/Fantom-0

video upload by Scott's Synth Stuff

"In this video, I take one of the earliest songs "Dark and Long (Dark Train)" by my favorite band, Underworld, and remake it in my Fantom-6. If you have a Fantom or a Fantom-0, you can do this yourself! I show how I picked the sounds, then go through the various parts and create sequences in the pattern sequencer. Once I'm done, I put it all together and show how it can be performed! You could do this on any multitimbral synth with a sequencer (MODX or Montage), using a DAW like Abelton, or even using a looper!"

Sonicware Liven EVOKE & Novation Circuit Rhythm: Live Ambient Electronic Jam

video upload by Ayohnimus (Official)

"🎵 Welcome back to the jam room! 🎵

This session is all about a dynamic duo for live electronic music: the incredible Sonicware Liven EVOKE and the powerful Novation Circuit Rhythm.

The Liven EVOKE provides the rich, evolving soundscapes with its unique granular and "Acoustronic" synthesis engine, creating the perfect ambient foundation. The Circuit Rhythm takes over on the beats, driving the groove with its intuitive sequencing and punchy samples.

This is a completely live performance, showing how these two pieces of gear can be used together to create a full, immersive track. If you're a fan of ambient, techno, or hardware-focused jams, you'll love this!"

Ambient session with sampled Bamboo flute : Transparent Garden 2025-09-06 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with KORG microKORG S, teenage engineering OP-1 field, and Novation Circuit. Electronica where sampled bamboo flute tones resonate over simple chords and rhythms.

On the microKORG, sustained chords are held while NIGHTSKY adds filtering and reverb, with modulation applied to the filter.

The OP-1 field is used to sample and play a Thai bamboo flute, processed with effects through Chase Bliss Audio MOOD MK II.

The Novation Circuit plays rhythm patterns, processed with LOSSY to create a lo-fi texture."

Digitone 2 + Launch Control XL 3: One System for EVERY Jam

video upload by Sineway

"Learn how to connect the Digitone 2 with the Novation Launch Control XL 3 for a consistent synth workflow that works across all your live performances.

🎛 What you’ll see:
My 8 column layout for drums, bass, leads, and more
How I map faders to mod wheel macros and encoders to breath control
Why one fader for all drums (mapped across multiple tracks) is often enough
Extra spice: direct MIDI CC mappings for reverb decay + delay feedback
How to configure the Launch Control XL 3 in Novation Components
How to assign MIDI channels on Digitone 2 for a stress-free synth workflow
Why this system also works with Digitakt 2, Syntakt, Digitone and even other synths like Peak or MiniFreak

💡 I still have unused encoders — what would you map them to? Let me know in the comments.

The software used to configure the Launch Control XL 3 is called Components and can be downloaded from here: https://novationmusic.com/components"

Acperience 1/Hardfloor (Circuit Tracks & Roland T-8 version)

video upload by Guinan

"1992's 'Acperience 1' by the German duo Hardfloor is almost peak 303 acid house. I've used the Novation Circuit Tracks with the ‪@IsotonikStudios‬ soundpack RB 303 by Yves Big City ‪@bigcitymastering‬ to emulate 2 of the 3 TB-303s used. The final pattern comes from the Roland T-8 drum machines emulation synced with the Tracks and feeding into the audio in..

The high string synth note was created on the Tracks and sampled so it could be played back on a drum pad.

Everything you hear was programmed and played live on these two machines and the mixed audio was recorded straight from the Tracks output."
