Wow hours and hours of fun. Great sounds. Last night I spent hours jamming with other synths along with the patterns AFTE wrote for this pack (my roommate also hopped in for a bit on his drums, which ruled).
I have to say, the process of uploading this pack to my Circuit and then experimenting with these presets taught me a lot about how to use the Circuit. well worth the money. I never bought a patch pack before, but I am glad I did.

Bought this as a part of A Force Truly Evils tripplepack.
Both of the Retrofuturism packs sound amazing. The synth presets are exelent and the drums really tastefull and really well matched.
Easy to get inspired and start pumping out some retro inspired tunes.
They work great on their own, but matched with for instance a Arturia Microfreak you have something truly excellent on your hands when it comes to making solid retro/synthwave tracks!

This is a really good one! Patches inspired by Roland Juno, Oberheim OB-X, and Prophet 5 sound, very much in the Synthwave/Cyberpunk "vein", full of expressiveness and dynamism with really robust basses and really nice polys and pads. The demos are also great, I highly recommend it.

RETRO FUTURISM 2 CONTENT
The second part of Retro Futurism is based on the same concept, bringing new Synthwave Cyberpunk-inspired patches that unlock the true potential of Circuit’s synth engine with a colossal sound.
A collection of 128 velocity-sensitive patches, we kicked off by creating 64 completely new and original patches and then used those patches as the inspiration for an additional 64 variations as a bonus.
Retro Futurism 2 brings together some of the best retro polyphonic synthesizers of the 80s with much more contemporary future-oriented sounds. A perfect blend of past and future.
Covering classics and screaming modern basses, lush and emotional poly-synths, powerful lead and filter sweeps, nostalgic detuned oscillators and shimmering evolving pads.
- 32 Basses (also usable as leads)
- 32 Poly-synths
- 32 Pads
- 16 Leads
- 16 Filter sweeps/effects and arpeggios
These patches also works well with other genres such Electronica, Ambient and IDM.
This pack is complete with 64 samples covering vintage kicks, huge gated snares, and classic toms/percussion from retro analog drum machines. Some effects and contemporary drum sounds have also been added for the perfect balance in any type of production.
17 High quality sessions/project including futuristic Cyberpunk passages, Future Funk grooves and Synthwave-inspired soundtracks.
Sessions includes several scenes.
RETRO FUTURISM MACRO SETTINGS
All macros follow the parameters assigned on Circuit Tracks.
As mentioned before the patches are velocity sensitive, but they can also react to pitch bend and mod wheel like on classic synthesizer keyboards.
Macro 1: emulates a pitch bend wheel for pitch inflections. In the center positions the pitch will not be altered, but if you turn left or right this macro will behave like a pitch bend wheel
Macro 2: emulates the mod wheel, in this case it is almost always linked to a vibrato effect, although it can vary depending on the patch
Macro 3: amp envelope release/amp envelope decay
Macro 4: filter envelope depth (first half for negative modulation, and second half for positive)
Macro 5: filter frequency
Macro 6: resonance
Macro 7: portamento
Macro 8: distortion

Frequently Asked Questions
The pack contains 128 velocity-sensitive patches, all crafted with a Synthwave and Cyberpunk aesthetic inspired by iconic polyphonic synthesisers of the past blended with modern digital techniques.
The patches are designed for Synthwave, Cyberpunk, retrofuturist, and sci-fi inspired productions, drawing heavily on 80s nostalgia and dystopian soundscapes. They work equally well for cinematic scoring, electronic music production, and genre-blending projects.
This pack is designed for the original Novation Circuit. If you own a Circuit Tracks or Circuit Rhythm, we recommend checking Novation’s patch compatibility documentation before purchasing, as the synth engines differ between models.
Patches are loaded onto the Circuit using Novation’s free Components software, which lets you drag and drop patches directly to your device. Simply download the pack, open Components in your browser, and import the files.
Not at all. Retro Futurism 2 is a fully standalone pack with its own unique set of patches, so it works perfectly on its own. That said, both packs complement each other brilliantly if you want the full sonic palette.
