That being said, it’s really really difficult to craft music in any meaningful way with this. The mechanisms for sequencing are really difficult to use as they rely far too much on animation rather than timing and if you do manage to get more than one sound or tone in sync with each other, it seems to be by sheer luck.
It’s a fun distraction for a while but if you really want to compose a piece with specifics in mind, you might get frustrated.
