Product description Steinberg Groove Agent 5 is a virtual drum workstation that combines a library of high-quality acoustic drums, electronic drums, and percussion organized in 130 kits with over 1000 MIDI grooves played by top drummers. It offers modern producers, beat-makers, and songwriters an all-in-one solution with a suite of rhythmic-composition tools well-suited for creating drum tracks in just about any genre, from jazz, funk, reggae, and rock, to Trap and EDM.This fifth generation of Groove Agent still features three drum modules, also known as Agents (Acoustic, Beat, and Percussion), but with a new acoustic drum kit referred-to as The Kit. Recorded with high-end studio equipment at Teldex Studios in Berlin, The Kit provides a large collection of realistic drum samples and articulations captured with up to 20 velocities. As in previous versions, the pattern editor enables you to program complex rhythms in the timing of your choice, simply by clicking in the grid.There are more than 30 new kits created for Groove Agent 5 by top electronic artists including Rawtekk, Audeka, zKlang, Joe Ford, and more. The kits come with not only beat patterns but also small melody parts, miscellaneous hits, and other noises. Songwriters can quickly build sophisticated backing tracks using MIDI grooves with intros, outros, fills, and different complexities, for the practical purpose of improvising, practicing, or sketching songs in all genres of music.For sound-design applications, you have access to the Decompose tool, which lets you load a sample and easily separate it into its tonal and noise components. The tonal part can be pitched independently from the noise. Drag and drop each component onto Groove Agent, and create your own signature sounds.Groove Agent 5 comes with an improved user interface resizable to fit the real estate of your display and supporting high-resolution HiDPI for clearer details when working on complex arrangements. Note: This product is an educational discounted version available to qualified students, faculty/staff, and accredited academic institutions only. Proof of current educational status is required. Software requires a USB-eLicenser USB copy protection device (available separately), if one is not already on the system. What's New in Version 5 - The Kit
