The Groovemate ONE Black Friday deal takes 82% off this UJAM percussion instrument, bringing it to $5 until Dec 9, 2026. It is a virtual instrument that adds ready-made percussion phrases to pop-leaning tracks.
Groovemate ONE is a percussion plugin for popular styles. The maker pitches it as the missing ingredient when your track already has bass, drums, melodies and chords but still feels flat.
UJAM compares percussion to salt: it works quietly in the background, and the dish never reaches its full flavour without it.
You pick a ready-made phrase, adjust it to your needs, and the groove sits under the rest of your arrangement.
The content is compact and easy to scan:
The Combi Styles cover several percussion instruments in a single phrase. The Solo Styles focus on one instrument at a time.
If you would rather play it yourself, the four instruments also respond to MIDI input: Claps, Tambourine, Regular Shaker and One-Shot Shaker.
The maker says real percussionists often write patterns that work against or around the basic beat, such as 3-over-4 and syncopations. Programming those by hand is tricky unless percussion is your instrument.
With Groovemate ONE you browse the presets and choose what works. Patterns trigger in sync with the rest of your session, so there is no nudging to line things up.
The preset-first workflow is the point. UJAM describes it as creating music without overthinking: pick a preset and get to work.
MIDI drag and drop lets you pull a phrase out of the plugin and into your DAW, where you can edit it like any other MIDI clip.
Groovemate ONE comes in VST and AU 2 formats. The AU 2 version is only compatible with Logic Pro X and newer. For current VST3, AAX and Apple Silicon support, UJAM points to its own website.
It arrives as downloadable installer files. You authorize inside the plugin with your ujam.com email address and password.
If you move the.blob files to an external drive, UJAM recommends an SSD to prevent dropouts.
Yes. The Groovemate ONE Black Friday deal is 82% off, which puts the UJAM percussion plugin at $5 until Dec 9, 2026. It comes as a downloadable installer, so you can authorize it with your ujam.com account once you have it.
Groovemate ONE has 30 styles, split into Combi Styles and Solo Styles, plus 4 sounds: Shaker, Claps, Tambourine and One-Shot Shaker. It also has 9 Mix presets, 4 Ambience presets and MIDI drag and drop for pulling phrases into your DAW.
Groovemate ONE is available as VST and AU 2. The AU 2 version only works with Logic Pro X and newer. It runs on 64-bit Windows 7 or later and macOS 10.14 to macOS 14, and needs 4 GB of RAM.
Both. You can pick a ready-made phrase and adjust it, or play the instruments live over MIDI input: Claps, Tambourine, Regular Shaker and One-Shot Shaker. Triggered patterns stay in sync with the rest of your session.
