What's new in Steinberg Groove Agent 5
It's been a while since a new version of Groove Agent came out, but Steinberg makes up for it with a number of new functions. The interface is scalable, which is handy nowadays as monitors keep increasing in size, and supports HiDPI. Decompose is a fun new feature that splits up your drum sound into separate components that you can interchange with other components. There are a number of smaller functions as well, such as pre-listening to pads and styles, 32 velocity layers and sample view in the envelope editors. All together, it adds up to software that will keep you busy for hours on end with excellent results!
