Steinberg GROOVE AGENT 3 Mode D'emploi page 58

Ambience
The Ambience knob sets the overall mix between dry
(close) sound and the wet (ambience) sound. The most
natural sound is found in the 9-1 o'clock area.
Please note that there is no facility to route the wet signal from Percus-
sion Agent to a separate output. However, there's an easy workaround:
If you want to treat the wet signal from a channel individually, make a
copy of that channel by loading the same groove into an unused chan-
nel. Make sure the copy channel is routed to an unused audio output.
Set the Ambience knobs for the two channels to Dry and Wet respec-
tively. Done!
Mute, Groove and Solo
Second is the slot that allows you to load a Groove. When clicking in-
side the text box, a pull-down menu appears. You are now allowed to
load a Groove.
The Groove name describes its content in the following way:
• "Tambourine 120-8T"
In this example, Tambourine is the instrument in use. 120 indicates the
tempo the groove was recorded at. The number 8 relates to the sub-
division; this groove is based on 8th notes (as opposed to 16th
notes). The T at the end tells us that this groove is triplet based (as
opposed to straight or "even 8ths/even 16ths").
The functionality and specifications for each of the
eight channels are identical, so the explanations
below apply to all of them.
First there is a Mute button. This button mutes the
channel, making it easy to compare the sound of
the whole ensemble with or without the channel in
question.
