About This Game
Song Designer is a step sequencer — a grid where each column is a beat in time, and each row is a musical note. Click cells to turn notes on and off, pick an instrument, adjust the tempo, and hit Play to hear your song. The drum grid at the bottom adds rhythm. You can save your songs to the cloud and load preset songs to learn from.

Tips & Tricks

- The grid highlights every 4 columns to help you stay on the beat
- Load a preset and change the instrument to hear how different instruments sound
