Editing Notes

Introduction to Notes in Symphoni

Notes are interactive cues that appear in sync with the music. Each note requires a specific player action—like swinging, pointing, or gliding—performed at the right moment to match the rhythm and beat of the song.

Symphoni has three types of notes, each with unique mechanics and properties.
