Acoustic kit piece articulations

I’m currently a user of BFD3 for acoustic drums. As a lifelong Cubase user since Atari days, I have groove agent, but never really use it much. Brilliant as BFD is for acoustic drums, the lack of development and support, coupled with all the bugs, crashes & licence manager issues has me looking for alternatives. A native Cubase VSTi would be my first choice if it can do the job, so can it, or at least will it at some point?

My main question is, do the kit pieces on the new acoustic kits have different articulations, for example tip/shank closed/qtr/half/3qtr/open/pedal/pedal splash for hi hat, center and rim for snare & toms etc?

These are the articulations for The Kit. All the kits have similar, but not exactly, the same.
Earlier kits have fewer. I don’t have GA6, but I’m assuming the new kit has the same as The Kit.
(The images overlap.)
Forgot to say: The newer kits and the third party kits do not have a cowbell. :enraged_face:
