Questions people ask about this model
Circuit, Circuit Tracks or Circuit Rhythm?
The original Circuit (2015) runs on AA batteries and sells for less. Circuit Tracks has a built-in battery and MIDI tracks. Circuit Rhythm is the sampler version and is priced separately.
How do I check the battery?
Charge it fully, then run it unplugged. A healthy one lasts a few hours. Much less means a tired battery, which is the usual wear point and a fair reason to offer less.
What else should I test on a used Novation Circuit Tracks?
Every pad lights and triggers, every knob, both synth tracks and the drum tracks, and the MIDI and audio outputs.
Selling one on
Real synths (Korg, Roland, Moog, Novation, Arturia, Nord) sell very fast. Home arranger keyboards (Yamaha PSR, Casio CT) are slow and low-margin unless free.
Boxable up to 61 keys; 76/88 key units are collection or expensive courier.
Where this price comes from
