    A wise musician named Jay drops videos that remind me the importance to play more, talk less.

    I really like the Circuit Tracks, and the MM2 is really adding so much atmosphere - great in combination!

    What a great tune. Really full and rich with great sequencing and evolution for just 2 boxes. 🎉 @hardware jams are doing a 2 box 5 min challenge at the moment. This is inspiring me to have a go! 👍🎧✌️

    Oh bro. You have just taught me so much about song structure. I often jam with just a couple of pieces but tend to get get lost after a while. This is really nice and clear. Am still so very proud to be a patron. 👍👍👍

    Dang... you're so right. All too often I recommend other synths for beginners, when the CT has everything and is user friendly.

    I have a Circut Tracks myself. As someone who doesn't have a lot of money to invest in music, I try to use the groovebox to its limit. I am very glad that there are such cool authors from whom you can learn something.

    Holy Jesus this started good and then got AMAZING when the second timber on the MM2 kicked in. VERY nice track and great use of the hardware. You may have just sold me on a Circuit Tracks. I had the OG Circuit for years and replaced it with bigger more complex hardware but I miss the size and simple workflow of the OG!

    Circuit tracks was what first intrigued me in the hardware space. I never ended up getting one and sprung straight for a synthstrom deluge instead but it looks like a fantastic device for the budget and minimalist setups

    Your channel is the reason i now own 5 or 6 various grooveboxes and synths and controllers. Thank you. But bow i realize i have no idea what to do. 😅 Im trying to recreate your aongs but its not as easy as i thought. Its fun though. Thanks for your time and effort.

    I was eyeballing the MM2 for a good, long time. I figured it overlapped with a lot of stuff I had, but it does sound really nice.

    • @JayHosking
      @JayHosking  4 місяці тому +3

      I think it's an easy recommend if you need to patch in holes in your setup, or just want a small swiss-army-knife-style synth for your table-top setups. It's a little harder to recommend on its own, since there are alternatives that might be a better choice, but at least the price is super reasonable.

      @firekeeper09 4 місяці тому +1

      @@JayHosking what would another compact option be with multiple timbres? I really like the fact you can use both MIDI out channels from the Circuit here instead of having two separate synths. Just less to trying to remember how multiple pieces of gear work.

    • @JayHosking
      @JayHosking  4 місяці тому +1

      @@firekeeper09 Not sure you can beat the MM2 for compactness or price on a multi-timbre synth. Something like the Roland SH-4D would give you more timbres and hands on control, but is larger and has a higher price point. You could also do something like the Roland MC-101, which is small and has great sounds, but not very useful for sound-shaping using its panel (primarily for presets, which you can load in).

    The Circuit Tracks is such a amazing device, especially for synth lovers Like us. With the 2 audio ins you can make a mobile synth setup, mix, sequence them, put fx and sidechain and pan then. You can even automate the panning!
    The 4drum tracks are more then enough and with some good samples you don't need any other drummachine. Probability makes even 1 bar enough to keep things interesting and this thing have just the best workflow in the game.
    Have the Circuit Tracks since it's release, for guys like us, with G. A. S this device gives us always a reason to buy a new synth😂
    Thanks for the jam Jay, really enjoyed it,especially your drums are so snappy and dry.
    Did you a sound pack or are the drums your costum ones?

      These drums and one CT synth are from a SoundGhost pack, and then I made the other synth sound. And thanks so much!

      The drums and one synth voice are from a SoundGhost Circuit Tracks pack, and the other voice (frog bass) is a patch I made with the editor. And thanks!
