What is section types and why they exist?

Sections are one the major part in Songtive. Using sections with different types you can split a song on different parts and specify how a chord should be played in different sections.

The Default section type is used for all type of sections until you specify a different one. Here you are an example – let’s assume that you would like to hear each chord as one bar with the notes: 1, 2, 3, 2, 1.

In the song you may have the following sections: Intro, A, B, Outro and only Intro won’t be played but A, B, Outro will use the Default section type.
