I think that 'groove quantise' does have quite
a specific meaning :
To take the timing from one midi part, and apply it to another.
So, you get the midi timing from a real drummer grooving away and apply
it to your beat. Then it pulls your beats to the nearest beat in the
groove, rather than to the normal 16th or whatever.
That was one sequencer's implementation of the term, but certainly not a
universally accepted strict definition.

I seem to remember having some floppys of grooves back
in the atari days
and doing this with midi shaker patterns and the like, but it's been a
long time....
