DreddSteppa is built specifically for the Novation Circuit groove box. It is not compatible with other hardware or software without the Circuit ecosystem.

You get 64 patches, 64 samples, and 24 sessions. The samples include chopped, resampled and layered breaks alongside electronic synthesised hits, and the sessions demonstrate the sounds in action.

The pack is rooted in underground bass music, covering Jungle, Drum & Bass, Dubstep and Future Bass. Expect wobs, growls, rumbles, subs, hypnotic leads, sweeping pads and wobbling chords throughout.

You load the patches and samples onto your Circuit using Novation’s Components web app or the Circuit Librarian software. The sessions can be imported the same way, getting you up and running quickly.

No additional software or plugins are required beyond what Novation provides to manage your Circuit. Everything runs directly on the hardware itself.

The 24 included sessions make it accessible for those still getting to know the Circuit, while the depth and quality of the sounds will satisfy experienced producers looking for serious bass music material.

DreddSteppa is the follow-up to Cosmogonik from LDM Design, but it is a completely standalone pack with its own patches, samples and sessions. Both packs can be used on the same Circuit unit, and if you add three or more LDM Design products to your cart you will automatically save 20% at checkout.
