After finding the VST 2 version and copying it to my common VST directory, it worked as it should. The only minus is that installation program doesn’t ask you where to install the VST 2 version of the program, so I’ve spent a few days trying to figure how to make it work with other DAWs. If you own Cubase, then you already have it if not, you can buy it from Steinberg. Of course, as this is a Steinberg product, you must have a USB licenser. It simply offers a great number of tools for working with drum loops, MIDI clips or separate hits and kits. It has proven to be the most complete drum workstation available at the moment, with a really big and versatile library, a great collection of MIDI grooves and an almost endless, deep collection of tools and controllers covering almost every aspect of drum manipulation and programming. It happens that since I got Groove Agent 4, it has become my main tool for all percussion and drum tasks. Being a reviewer for so many years, you can imagine that I have all those specialized tools, but no matter. But all those tools cover just small specialized niche or function, all of which Groove Agent 4 has. Fxpansion Geist has more advanced loop manipulation tools and so on. Superior Drummer or Steven Slate Drums are a bit snappier when a rock kits start to groove.

You can find better-equipped or more highly-specialized VST instrument for every particular section or function of Groove Agent 4 – e.g. More or less, this is the main story about Groove Agent 4. He thought this could not be enough, at least for such a good instrument, as I claimed that Groove Agent 4 was. But in going through the specifications, he noticed that it has only eight layers per pad. When I mentioned in an email how satisfied I was with a Groove Agent 4, Suleiman, our drum expert, wrote me that he hadn’t tried it yet. We at SoundBytes always talk about the software that we are working on at the moment.

Finally we have a fancy virtual version of a drum-oriented Swiss Army knife, a magic all-in-all pack that could cover your every drum need – impressive functionality for a surprisingly low price.
