Groove

groove, also known as groove.mid, or GROOVE.MID, is a sample midi file that comes packaged with Voyetra's AudioStation software.

The midi file was composed by Earl Gray Fowler, and has a duration time of 1 minute (1:00). The song plays at 103 BPM.

A shorter, alternative version of groove, known as funk1a could also be found on Voyetra's official website. funk1a is actually the original version of groove, since funk1a was composed in 1992, and groove was composed in 1993.

Sadly, the website can no longer be found, but both the website & its midi files have been archived on Archive.org's Wayback Machine.

A 1992 prototype of groove.mid also exists, and is most likely even earlier than funk1a:

Proof that groove (1992 Version) is the earliest version of groove.mid:
 * funk1a has less information on it, lacking important information, such as the composer
 * The tempo of the 1992 version is different compared to the final version & funk1a; it plays at 99 BPM. funk1a plays at 100 BPM, & final groove plays at 103 BPM.
 * funk1a & 1992 version groove were composed in 1992; however, while both funk1a & groove have midi information, 1992 groove only has midi information in the cue.
 * While the 1992 groove has a cue, both funk1a & groove have no cue at all.
 * The 1992 version of groove has more instrument tracks compared to both funk1a & groove: 1992 groove has Synth Bass 1, which is absent in groove & funk1a, & Electric Piano 2, which is turned into a 2nd Electric Piano 1 in the final version.
 * The Electric Bass (Pick) is an Acoustic Bass in both funk1a & the known version of groove.
 * The Lead 4 (Chiff) is a Recorder in the known version of groove. In funk1a, it's still present, and has been duplicated as Pad 2 (Warm)
