An Evening Together (Sequential Take 5, Novation Bass Station II and Launch Control XL 3)

video upload by MKustomAudio

"Some reworked and new tracks put together for a recent product performance/demonstration. Tracks start with a lighter/brighter feeling before transitioning to heavier/darker sound. The Novation Bass Station II and Sequential Take 5 were used for external synthesizers alongside backing tracks in Ableton, while the Novation Launch Control XL 3 was used for additional control/manipulation of tracks.

Tour De France/Kraftwerk - (Circuit Tracks & Rhythm Version)

video upload by Guinan

"I was listening to the 50th Anniversary version of the album, ‘Autobahn’ by Kraftwerk and it occurred to me to have a try at one of their tracks.

By far the most danceable of theirs is the 1983 song ‘Tour De France’ with the 2003 Francois Kevorkian mix the best fit for the Circuit Tracks treatment. It also should be noted that the band were complete cycling fanatics even hosting some of their concerts in velodromes!

With the real Tour De France just about to kick off (5th July in Lille) I couldn’t think of a more suitable track, and I want to dedicate this with love to my cycling-loving father-in-law, Bernard.

Having influenced early 80’s electro music such as Afrika Bambaataa’s ‘Planet Rock’ the influences went in the other direction for this track. Hiring the famous New York electro producer Kevorkian to do the remix made for a fantastic combination. Francois was responsible for many of the greatest New York electro productions and remixes.

(a big shout out too to anyone who's here because they love the broom scene from the movie, 'Breakdance' !)

This era of Kraftwerk was notable in introducing sampling to the normally analogue instrumentation they used. For this reason, I’ve drafted in my Circuit Rhythm again in the same way as my recent version of Robert Mile’s ‘Children’. See here;

• Children/Robert Miles - (Novation Circuits... [posted here]

Everything you hear is coming from just these two machines (Circuit Tracks & Rhythm). The Tracks is programmed with the musical parts and is playing the Rhythm on two tracks. There are in addition some rhythm tracks playing on this machine to thicken out the sound. No other synths were used (apart from the sampled instruments mentioned below) and you’re hearing the straight audio direct out from the machines.

I loved the challenge of putting this together (see below for details!)
I hope you enjoy it too and check in soon for more tunes.

JHS Colour Box v2 Lovely Saturation [FX w/ Synthesizers #19] Demo

video upload by gstormelectro

"Audio + Video by G-Storm Electro c. 2025

Today I am exploring various synth and percussion elements through the JHS Colour Box v2 for that lovely vintage console saturation. Or downright savage noise when pushed harder, if that's your bag. A/B comparison effect on/bypass except the last section, got lost in the moment on that one. Tried my best to mind the levels, but now and then the volume is a bit inconsistent. Some normalization applied to remedy some of that, you understand. The EQ applied some nice touches, really helps pick out some sweet spots here and there. Recorded direct on iPhone via EPM6 mixer via Go:Mixer:Pro-X.

Demo - Brutal Techno - Novation Circuit Tracks Pack by Yves Big City

video upload by Isotonik Studios

"This isn’t polite techno. This is teeth-grinding, chest-pounding, warehouse-breaking sound design—built specifically for the Novation Circuit.

With Brutal Techno, we push the synth engine into overdrive: distorted hoovers, snarling acid, rolling kick synths, haunting pads, and searing leads. And it’s all built around a one-finger technique—press a single note and unleash full-scale rave sequences without menu diving or finger gymnastics.

Drawing from the energy of AK Sports, Trym, and Amelie Lens, this pack captures the chaotic pulse of fast techno and rave culture—engineered for aggressive live sets and fearless sound explorers.

What’s Inside:

128 Presets – including hoover leads, fat synth kicks, acid basslines, distorted pads, and sequenced riffs
64 Samples – punchy one-shots for drums and FX to bring grit and drive to every beat
32 Demo Sessions – instant rave templates to perform or remix on the fly
One-Finger Techno – play a single note to trigger full sequences and wild patterns
Fully tagged, performance-optimized, and ready to overload your dancefloor
This is for the producers who want to destroy comfort zones. Whether you’re crafting brutal drops, relentless groove loops, or jacking live jams, Brutal Techno gives you the tools to be loud, fast, and unapologetically raw.

Not for everyone. Perfect for the right ones

Made for Novation Circuit Tracks but compatible with OG circuit.
