These sounds are just great for all kinds of edm I use them for more chilled compositions and they are perfect for that the drums are not your typical dance beats more of a subtle organic natural vibe and with the effects added are just perfectfor what .I just love the elemental naming of the patches The synth sounds them self's are wonderful and expressive the macro knobs work well on all patches I have tested so far . If you are looking to move away from the Novation Circuit og stock sounds this pack is a great first choice for an organic edm composition very recommended I'm very happy with my first purchase

An excellent pack for relaxing IDM vibes. I recently got a used Circuit and it came to me with 6 of these patches on it (I could tell from the element names, smart marketing on the part of Limbic Bits). I found myself using the element patches more than any other because they sound great and I loved the variation I got from the macro knobs, so I bought the rest of the pack! So far, I find all of these to sound great. There weren't any deep basses, so I modified Thorium in the editor and sits perfectly in the sound I am going for. I like the samples too. No traditional drum sounds. Mostly gentle, subtle, crackly, fizzy digital sounds, a couple of harsher sounds for variety, with a few ambiguous nostalgia-inducing samples like a music box and a swoosh. On the whole, the most useful pack I've purchased for my Circuit. I think I'm going to buy the related Plants pack too.

I love this pack.
1. The patches have a really nice variety, some nice subtle ones all the way to very noisey ones.
2. I like this as I find a lot of the Circuit packs very OTT.
3. The paraphonic patches work perfect with this pack.
4. While the macro's aren't 100% consistent across patches, they work in a very 'intelligent' way and are a pleasure to use for this.
These are the main reasons that this pack stands out for me, but it also just feels a lot more 'grown up/serious' to me, the circuit patches function a lot more like a proper instrument with this pack that some of the others. I guess this is the intention of the pack and why they don't include any sessions.
There are some really nice sounds in this pack, but I did find myself getting rid of some for more usual snare and hat sounds. But I am still marking 5 stars because I think the patches are of such a high quality. Also the samples I don't use aren't bad - just some more typical drum sounds work better with what I do.

At a glance this sounds as nearly perfect pack I've been looking to create minimal techno. Patches are really deep in terms of possible modulations and variations of sound you can produce out of single patch. The list of patches lacks of deep bass in y opinion but it's not a problem to replace a couple of patches with some others you need.
All in all definitely the best pack of samples and especially !patches! I ever used on circuit.
Novation Circuit Elements by Limbic Bits Sound Design
Elements for Novation Circuit & Circuit Tracks is a tailor-made patch bank for all producers of Techno, Ambient, Electronica and the like. With this pack you’ll get 64 patches plus a collection of 64 samples covering Kicks, Percussion, HiHats and Cymbals.
This patch bank provides a vast selection of lush Pads, experimental Textures, of course Basses and lead Sounds. Limbic Bits dived deep into Circuit’s synth engine. As a result, you can expect granular ambiences, dynamic FM-sounds and VHS-like analogue spheres.
For an easy integration into live setups, most patches share the same macro mappings. Intelligent assignments of several parameters to one macro knob allow to smoothly transition aggressive sounds into lush textures.
MACRO MAPPINGS
Knob 1 = Cutoff EG Depth
Knob 2 = Cutoff
Knob 3 = An intelligent transition of resonance / noise / overdrive (sometimes without noise or overdrive, depending on the patch)
Knob 4 = first 50 % is for attack time / second half of the knob sets release time, so you can smoothly morph a lead sound into a pad.
The remaining four knobs are used for parameters suited to the selected patch
Knob 5 = Vibrato, EFX Dry / wet (depending on the patch also chorus when turning the knob further to the right)
Knob 6 = Performance knob (could be LFO speed, LFO intensity, OSC tune etc.)
Knob 7 = Volume & amount of noise
Knob 8 = Oscillator morph functions. Those can be wavetable positions, oscillator A/B ratio, tuning etc.
EASY INSTALLATION
Elements Patch Bank for Circuit uses Novation Components Librarian file. You can choose if you want to load the whole pack- including samples – or just the patches into your synth.
PATCH LIST
Frequently Asked Questions
You get 64 synth patches spread across two banks of 32, plus 64 samples covering kicks, percussion, hi-hats and cymbals. The patches cover pads, textures, basses and leads suited to Techno, Ambient and Electronica.
You can load the patches using Novation’s free Components editor, which allows you to transfer patch banks directly to your device via browser or desktop app. The samples can be loaded into your Circuit Tracks’ sample slots using the same tool.
Most patches share a standardised macro layout, with Knob 1 controlling Cutoff EG Depth and Knob 2 controlling Cutoff. This makes it straightforward to switch between patches in a live set without having to relearn the controls.
The bank covers a wide range of tones including warm lush pads, granular ambiences, FM-influenced textures, analogue-style basses and complex leads. Limbic Bits have specifically designed them to suit Techno, Ambient and Electronica production styles.
Absolutely. The consistent macro mappings across patches are intentionally designed for live use, allowing you to transition smoothly between aggressive and atmospheric sounds in real time without interrupting your set.
No additional software or plugins are required beyond Novation’s free Components tool for transferring the patches. Everything is built to run natively on the Circuit hardware itself.
