Setting up the instrument
Groove Agent 3 as a VST Instrument in Cubase
This section describes how to set up Groove Agent 3 with Cubase as
your host application. However, the same procedure applies to most
host applications, and you should consult your host's documentation
if you need further help.
Make sure the host program has been correctly installed and set up to
work with your MIDI and audio hardware (e.g. MIDI keyboard and an
audio card).
To set up Groove Agent 3:
1. Open the VST Instruments window.
2. Click the "No Instruments" label and select Groove Agent 3 from the
pop-up menu.
3. Wait for a few seconds while Groove Agent 3 loads its default style
samples. The Groove Agent window opens automatically.
4. In the VST host application, select Groove Agent 3 as the output for a
MIDI track.
