Style and Groove Settings Groove Variations-Sections Like the Styles, each Groove features several Sections, allowing you to add dynamic variations to the performance. Five Sections (A-D, MUSICAL CLIMAX) are available. Unlike the Styles, however, Groove do not have Sections dedicated to the beginning or ending of the Song, such as Intro and Ending.
