You can manage your files using the Load panel.
Some common controls and concepts exist throughout the program. For example, presets can be used in several different sections and contexts, but their handling is always the same.
These sections help you to get started with Groove Agent and introduce program functions and settings.
This section shows the name of the loaded kit, allows you to load a different kit, and make basic settings such as specifying the polyphony for the kit, for example.
The kit rack to the right of the kit slot section gives you an overview over the loaded kits and their corresponding agents, and allows you to perform some editing for the selected kit via the context menu.
To open the kit context menu, right-click the kit slot or right-click a kit in the kit rack.
The Load panel allows you to manage, navigate to, load, and preview different file types.
