Steinberg GROOVE AGENT 3 Mode D'emploi page 88

Pop
High energy pop drumming at your service! Fave tempo is 146 BPM.
These rhythms were created to inspire all the other boys in the band.
Pop drumming is the motor to a popcycle, with fill-ins from corny to
rocket fuel. Can you find the two-bar fill going from A to Z and back
again? Happy ride! DB
Backbeat (T)
This is the perfect up-tempo style. The drumming is pretty intense and
it doesn't stop to catch its breath, and maybe that is why it's very easy
to create a dance friendly song based on this groove. PS
Olympic
It's funny how a drumming style without accentuated backbeats can
make a song really swing. I took the drumming from The Beatles' Get
Back and scaled it down. The result can be heard at the lower levels.
I also took the style a few steps further, the levels to the right. Wirebird
suggested that this one could be used for gymnastic exercises, hence
the style name. SB
* 6/8 (T)
One silly omission in the original edition of Groove Agent was that the
6/8 style was missing. There are many lovely songs that need this kind
of rhythm, songs like "If you don't know me by now" and "When I need
you". Please note that you must set the time signature of your host to
6/8 to play this style properly. SB
* Steady Beat
Here's a very basic style that suits almost any tempo. It's perfect when
you need a steady drummer who doesn't do any unexpected exer-
cises, someone who never flips out, someone who's not into impress-
ing anyone – but just plays. Plays a steady beat. This style can also be
used if you want something with a triplet feeling. Just turn the Shuffle-
knob to the right and you will have a steady Shuffle-beat. MEB
