grid
Subdivision of a beat. The number of grids per beat is part of the Microsoft® DirectMusic® time signature.
groove level
A value given to music during style playback. The groove level determines which patterns can be selected at any given time. The author assigns a range of groove levels to each pattern.
group
A logical collection of players. Microsoft® DirectPlay® supports groups within a session. By creating a group of players, an application can send a single message to the group, and all players in the group receive the message. A group is the means by which a network's multicast capabilities are exposed to the application.
Groups can be used to organize players in a session. A player can belong to more than one group. DirectPlay provides methods for administering groups and their membership.
