    Hi Dom, this one of the most 'crystal clear' demo about G.A... I (but sure I'm not the only one) really love the way you share your knowledge, your skills, all your tricks and advices about the Cubase Universe, thank you for sharing that. Steinberg/Cubase has Greg... and you. Congrats my dear.

    For years I've ignored G.A. Because of using Battery for such a long time. I've built up so many custom kits that I couldn't be bothered to start again but...... You have convinced me, plus NI will not be supporting Battery anymore.
    Thanx for another great vid 👍🏼👍🏼🙌🏼

      That said, all these VSTs are impossible to figure out with regards to where they save all this crap. There's "kits" and "with samples" and "instruments" and rarely when I save something can I ever find it again, and they do NOT show up in the hyper-confusing search tool. Steinberg really needs to fix their levels/searches.

You make it so simple, explain it so well and I can't believe this is just sat in the DAW waiting to be used. Thanks for the video man and thanks for sharing the knowledge! Where did you get/buy your samples from, they sound great?

  • @markquavertune2003
    @markquavertune2003 Před 3 lety

    Thank you Dom .Some of the expansions have interesting kits .It would be good if when dragging a loop to the piano roll .If the loop could be spread ,timewise ,slowed by percentages ,half ,sixth ,eighth slowed by dividing points .Or for example .Two measures at half speed dividing point .Next two measures third speed diving point .Next 4 measures quarter speed dividing point .Implemented in the piano roll for Grove Agent .The reason I propose this .Say that I have a synth sequence .I don't want to change the tempo of the sequence but I do want to mix the pace of the drum dynamic .

    I liked the hi-hat 2% randomization, and the second snare tuned a halfstep up for left/right hits simulation, and the rudiments. This will help me create more realistic sounding drums.
