My favourite part is the MIDI keyboard shortcuts. This helps to give your choice a realistic feel. Although, I did achieve a certain element of freshness when I combined their electronic kit with say, the bossa nova or fox patterns 50s. On the other hand, I would not use this VSTi for more modern electronic music. As a soundtrack composer, I often have to re-create styles from the past, and this will now be the first VSTi that I will call up when I need a rumba, or a bossa nova, etc. The most authentic styles for me are found in the pre-80s offerings. Everytime I start improvising with the complexity button, I easily loose an hour of my day.
You can also route each element to one of four outputs, for further processing. Each element is also offered in one of two mic placements - very natural sounding. There are dozens of kicks, snares, hats, percussion, from different time periods. Installing Groove Agent was a breeze, except when it came to getting the kits to load for the first time. The new Dual Mode puts any two of the three agents together in the recording studio for virtual drum and percussion sessions - all within one single VST instrument. While the Special Agent adds a realistic studio drummer complete with new acoustic drum kits to Groove Agent 3's arsenal, the Percussion Agent is specialized in percussive grooves and beats.
Groove Agent 3 adds two new agents to the Classic Agent seen in previous versions: Special Agent and Percussion Agent.
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. 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. 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. This makes it a rich and versatile instrument and style library, one that sounds just as powerful and emotive in the context of a heavy-rock song as it does in a dance music production. Virtual Guitarist 2 is the perfect rhythm guitarist, it plays both acoustic and electric guitar, offering the right riff for almost every style of music. What's more, special stylistic devices were employed during the recording of drum sounds to invoke the spirit of the given era and lend these sounds authenticity.
