- Music makers who like drawing ideas by hand
- Worth noticing
- Its drum page maps dots, boxes, dashes, and rings to five percussion parts, with six kits to try.
Field notes
Melody drawings follow a simple rule: higher marks play higher, longer marks sustain, and notes remain in a key chosen by the user. The drum page assigns five kinds of marks to percussion parts and lists six kits for trying the same drawing in different styles. The page also describes colour-based sound assignments and MIDI or WAV export, but says the plugin is out soon.
