This has now been changed such that moving or changing the duration of a note will snap it to the grid, and then increment it by the grid resolution. In previous versions, when dragging a note whose position or duration was not aligned to the Key Editor rhythmic grid, its position or duration would be incremented by the current grid value, rather than first snapping to the nearest grid position, as you might expect. The editing of notes in the piano roll has been greatly improved. To ensure you can use the content correctly in Dorico 5, please also run Steinberg Activation Manager and click the Refresh button in the top right corner. You can download this new content set via Steinberg Download Assistant: choose Dorico Pro 5 or Dorico Elements 5 on the left-hand side and install the Jazz Essentials download choice. The standard patterns included with Groove Agent SE are focused more in rock and pop styles, so adding Jazz Essentials nicely broadens the genres and styles that are provided. Your Dorico Pro 5 or Dorico Elements 5 license now includes access to the Groove Agent Jazz Essentials expansion pack, which includes 10 styles performed by professional jazz drummers.

This update is focused on fixing the problems experienced by some of our early adopters, though as always we have squeezed in a few useful improvements along the way. We are pleased to release a second maintenance release for Dorico 5 across all supported platforms.
