Arc
What are Arcs in Symphoni?
Initially designed to simulate the feeling of conducting in tempo, arcs are notes that challenge the player to swing their hand in various directions, in the aims of matching the beat of a song.
Arc Properties

|---|---|
| Hand | Dictates which hand should swing at the note (dominant hand, non-dominant hand, both hands) |
| Timestamp | The song timestamp in which note perfectly overlaps with ring |
| Angle | Indicates the direction of where the arc flies from (ranging from 0-360 degrees) |
