Record samples and edit them to create new effects all in one box.

Circuit Rhythm is the powerful and versatile standalone sampler for the modern beatmaker. Samples can be recorded directly to the hardware, then sliced, sculpted, reversed, looped, resampled and played chromatically, and more—all in the box. Grid FX invigorate your live performances, with lo-fi tape, stutter, beat repeat effects and more. Eight Sample tracks, each with their own 32-step patterns, chainable for up to 256 steps per track—provide a seamless beatmaking workflow.

Circuit Rhythm Sample Pack Expansion

Use the six sample packs with over 550 royalty-free samples to add flavor to your tracks. Get inspired by vinyl samples and tight beats spanning hip-hop, trap, neo-soul and more to give your beats new life and bring out your creativity. Packs are available for free through the Novation Components online site.

About the Sample Packs:
Coastline Bliss
Drift away to a golden coastal sunset with these grainy vinyl samples and tight beats.
Trap Hop
Build big tracks using dark hip-hop influences with warped sound-design and tight trap beats.
East Coast Soul
An effortless set of electric pianos, vibrant chord progressions and shimmering digital leads paints a sunset drenched soundscape.
Wonky Hip-Hop
A chilled collection of intimate guitars, tight hip-hop beats, and smooth bass lines.
Neo-Soul
Laid-back beats and stunning top lines make for a rich set of organic neo-soul instrumentation.
Daybreak Trap
A bass-heavy pack that blends chill guitar melodies with deep sub basses and tight trap beats for a serene yet driving sound.

Go from a sample to a complete beat with ease using the powerful and hands-on sequencer. Grooves can be quantized or captured off-grid into the sequencer, and probability and pattern mutate controls keep your beats evolving.

Circuit Rhythm’s comprehensive connectivity includes full-size five-pin MIDI in, out and thru, and analog sync out, making it the perfect sampler partner to any studio rig. The built-in rechargeable battery provides up to four hours of battery life, so you can make beats on the move, and Novation Components provides a platform to load samples and backup your work.

Circuit Rhythm’s firmware 2.0 update brings new editable Grid FX, Beat Match, Fixed Length Recording and Sample Record for greater flexibility with beatmaking.
