Novation Circuit MEGA Live Set

video upload by Gabe Miller Music

"My full live set on my dual Novation Circuit setup, which I've been working on since the beginning of the year. Performed in one take (with one tiny audio punch-in when I unmuted a track too early).
Huge thanks to Linnaea's Cafe for letting me film there, and huge thanks to Nathan from The Relative Minimum for the vocal on the last song!

In this setup, the Novation Circuit Rhythm is the main device, with the Novation Circuit Tracks connected via midi and providing synth patches and extra samples. I jam the whole thing live with track mutes, macros, scenes, project switching, and more. Everything you hear is the Circuits, with some light mastering done in post. The set runs the gamut from synthwave to hard techno to drum and bass, and I've documented the making of most of it here on this channel.

Filmed by me, my mom, and my brother. Thanks y'all."
