It is exactly what I expected as an owner of both the original Circuit and the Mono Station. Very versatile and very easy to use. I have not used it in a recording yet, but every time I've picked it up for a quick jam, I've lost hours and hours just having fun.
Carlos Canto
Very small and light! Useful for every ocation!
Ian Sainsbury
Not sure if the CR has quite found its user base yet, but I think it will when people catch onto its strengths, rather than focus on what it can't do. It may not have the depth of other, more expensive hardware units, but it has the best workflow—in my opinion—of all the groovebox samplers I've tried, and I've tried plenty. I'm thinking of adding a Tracks.

Great box, loads of fun and easy to use but can get much deeper than expected

Es un gran producto , muy bien empaquetado, de buena calidad, me llegó a tiempo, volvería a comprar en su tienda, la opción de tienda en línea estuvo excelente!
Rodrigo Laporte
Superb compact sampler. Best used as a companion for other gear, since it has plenty of connections. Can also be used as a standalone gear for some live performance. Sampling is easy, sequencer is awesome. Great use of linked patterns/sessions. The only big miss is time stretching. And of course stereo, but that's understandable for the price. Integrated battery is genious, I end up using it anywhere with just some headphones. Overall excellent product, can't recommend it enough
kevin Wedd
Well built sturdy product. You do have to watch online tutorials, but the fun is in experimenting to find your way around the sampler.
Andrew Barton
Only just started using it but i know it will be a fantastic bit of kit for my livesets Dstorm sound system. Bstorm

Why can the individual tracks not output polyphonically?
Martin Baldock
I have created a "Circuit Band" with the Circuit, Monostation, Tracks, and now the Rhythm. My intention is to experiment, and synch them via MIDI using one as master, the other 3 as slaves. The Rhythm is as robustly built as the other "Circuits", and I envisage being able to manipulate the sounds easily in a live situation with the added advantage of me being able to sample other instruments too. Pictured is my initial setup in the martCave, and a screen dump of the very first session in Acoustica Mixcraft Pro 9.
Alex Buga
I love it. It's simple, fast, it has everything I need for making songs on the go and in the studio. I wish it had polyphony more than stereo sampling. Even with the cost of losing voices. At least so you can jam with a sample and resample the loop
David Flynn
Still too early to give a full assessment of the Circuit Rhythm but it should make a useful addition to my set-up.

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 — 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. Go from a sample to a complete beat with ease using the powerful and hands-on sequencer. Grooves can be quantised 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 analogue 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.
