Cubase Groove Agent ONE - NOW SORTED :)

[Chiliwailer]

PROBLEM NOW SORTED.

I've got Cubase AI 7 which was upgraded to Elements 7. I went to use Groove Agent One, for the first time, and have found that it's not available, just can't find it when Cubase is open. I've reinstalled Cubase after deleting all the C Drive files, but still nothing.

I've tried accessing it via Devices / VST Instruments and also via right click / add instrument track. It's not there, even when clicking No VST Instrument.

I'm a complete novice, any ideas or help is appreciated.

Thanks. Edited March 11, 2017 by Chiliwailer

I thought Cubase Elements only had Groove Agent SE4?

Sounds like you have installed Cubase A1 7 rather than Elements.
Elements has the Drum software. I am not sure that A17 has?

Have you tried the Steinberg set up videos?
Well worth a look.

Thanks for the response and video. Couldn't see anything in the vid

During the install, it mentioned that it would be installing Groove Agent One.

When Cubase is open, the top bar says Cubase AI7, but the desktop icon and info that popped up during the reinstall says Cubase AI7 on the first folder and then Cubase Elements LE AI Elements 7 for Windows on the next folder., which is what was stated on the install.

Man, I miss 8 tracks and real players

Have you tried (after the original install) downloading and installing the Elements 7 update?

Elements is now up to version 9, I would have thought that during the upgrade that It would have given you
the option to upgrade to the current version and not a 4 year old legacy version.

It's possible that there are two VST folders installed, one for A1 7 and one for Elements.
If so, you will have to navigate to the second folder as well.
That will be under options etc.

Cool, thank you, I'll try the update now.

In my searches it looks like I may not have activated Elements 7, the online instructions aren't making sense right now, but I'll do the update and carry on from there.

Cheers

Now sorted. I needed to download the elicenser software and then get Elements 8 via a grace period download. Got there in the end and now have the beats I paid for ages ago!

Cheers for your help, it steered me in the right direction
