Steinberg Groove Agent 3 is the 3rd incarnation of the amazingly successful Groove Agent virtual drummer VST instrument.
This is a major step up from previous versions. Groove Agent 3
combines a huge library of drum and percussion sounds with a range of
player technologies to give you dynamic, ready-to-go drums, beats,
rhythms and percussion in only a few mouse clicks. Top-quality drum
samples and live recorded drum performances in a massive number of
variations cover 123 different styles from over 50 years of music
history, automatically synced to the song tempo. And Groove Agent 3
also features more kits and sounds, including 3 new top-rate acoustic
drum kits, as well as the ability to import user samples in wav and
AIFF format for even more flexibility.
Groove Agent 3 adds two new agents to the Classic Agent seen in
previous versions: Special Agent and Percussion Agent. While the
top-notch Special Agent adds an astoundingly realistic studio drummer
complete with new acoustic drum kits to the Groove Agent arsenal, the
Percussion Agent is specialized in red-hot percussive grooves and
beats. The new Dual Mode puts any two of the three agents together in
the recording studio for scorching virtual drum and percussion sessions
– all within one single VST instrument. And while Groove Agent 3
breathes new life into any production with its inspiring and inventive
drum performances, it is also an ideal sparring partner for practice or
jam sessions.
