Sequence with external gear

Hi everyone. Brand new op-z user here with a question about sequencing with external gear, specifically the Novation Circuit.

From what I’ve read it seems this is possible via the keystep.

More specifically, I’m wanting to use the Circuit’s pads and scale modes as the op-z input.

Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, point me in the right direction to get started?

I would start with the midi section of the op-z manual - https://teenage.engineering/guides/op-z/midi
Also the op-z midi thread is a good place to see what other people have done, what issues they have had and how they have solved or worked around them - Op-z MIDI Thread

I don’t know if the circuit sends midi or how that is configured, but if it can send midi messages the op-z can receive them.

Thanks for the reply, I’ll check out those resources.

I use a launchpad pro mk3 for this. I bought
the recommended usb hub from Kingston, the nucleum.

Plug into the usb on the opz and then plug the launchpad into usb and works straight away. I then use the scale and chord modes to input notes to the opz

Beautiful. I’ll give that a shot.
