Get the Groove Happening

Groove Machine is a virtual groove box designed with live performance in mind, or use it as a synthesizer/drum-machine combination. Groove Machine's power lies in its ability to automate every parameter of the sampler, synth and effects channels on a PER-step basis. Get a groove happening quickly and trigger samples, loops and bars/patterns on the fly from your MIDI controller or DAW software. Groove Machine comes with 10 FX (per channel) designed to work perfectly with controllers. The X/Y pad links to key features of each effect, ready to be tweaked. Link track parameters to the 5 CTRL knobs on top-left side. During track progression, control 2 parameters with your 2 hands. Switch between tracks and control these parameters in each selected track. You can even press several tracks and set a parameter for them all at once.

Focused to live performance.

We recommend a MIDI controller if you want to control Groove Machine live. However, it's still possible to use Groove Machine with a computer mouse and keyboard, just less efficient.
