Groove agent patterns playing off the beat

[wildschwein]

I’m not really sure if you can change time signatures on the patterns mid song without somehow editing them at the MIDI level. I did a forum search and some information located applies to earlier GA versions but might help you out.

Someone in another thread says that:
“Hi - putting together a drum track by drawing notes on a Groove Agent track to trigger patterns.
Most of the track is in 4/4, but there is one bar of 2/4, created this using a signature track.
Unfortunately, all of the bars after the change in Groove agent are 2 beats out. Fills start half way through and the beat counter in GA is half a bar out.”

Groove Agent Patterns & Time Signature Change

Hi - putting together a drum track by drawing notes on a Groove Agent track to trigger patterns. Most of the track is in 4/4, but there is one bar of 2/4, created this using a signature track. Unfortunately, all of the bars after the change in Groove agent are 2 beats out. Fills start half way through and the beat counter in GA is half a bar out. I appreciate that patterns are in certain signatures, but is there any way to resync or reset GA to go back to “1” at a new bar start in Cubase?

Strange groove agent 4 problem

Hi! Ive recently started to use groove agent 4. I have a project in 4/4 with some measures in 6/4 time signature and ive created a signature track to make it work with the metronome/tempo track etc. On this project im using samples from the acoustic agent studio kit. Whenever i trigger a sample from my midikeyboard after the the 6/4 measure the sample always trigger on beat 2 of the sample. So the first two beats of the sample is mssing. Everything else is ok and ive made sure to type in 4/4 af…

GA SE4: Follow track transport with Time Signature Change

Hi all, I’m working on a project in 4/4 containing time signature changes to 2/4 and back, and I’d like to sync Groove Agent SE4 to the project without using Midi data on a track. I activated “Follow Transport” and this works fine when I play the project, but as I get to the 2/4 bar, GA keeps on playing the 4/4 pattern, over the bar, instead of only playing the first half of the pattern on the 2/4 bar (as I would expect). Is it not possible to sync GA to a project with time signature changes…

Groove Agent 5 - So few styles not 4/4 signature

Hi, Just purchased GA5 and I’m truly shocked and disappointed with how few styles are available that are not in 4/4 signature with the default instrument sets. Is modern music really this boring! Can anyone tell me best expansion packs to purchase to access other time signatures…7/8, 5/4. 3/4, 6/8 etc. Shame I just missed the 50% off promotion. Is there any other way of getting hold of or sharing patterns with GA5? Thanks.

how do you change time signature in GA4?

Hi, I just started using GA4, both standalone and with Cubase AI 7. In standalone, I see the time signature at the top and can change the value, but it has no effect on the patterns - they all play 4/4. Is there no way to change a pattern to something else? Ultimately I want to use GA 4 in AI 7. I can change the time signature in AI 7 but then when I drag a pattern onto a track, the beat totally changes. It’s still in 4/4 but doesn’t sound like when I play off the scratch pad. Any help would …
