The default octave is set to 4

The possible range of notes is from C0 to H9.

Notes (C, D, E, F, G, A, H) and key signatures (b, #) are randomly assigned.

In the Console view, you can keep track of the notes that are currently playing.
If the notes are close or overlapping, you can hear cracking sounds.
(Larger speakers are recommended for listening to low frequencies)

On the lines with less density, notes oscillate and play faster, and on denser lines they play slower.

This work is designed to fill the entire window.
