There are thirteen different experiments to explore for music making:

• 'Songmaker' – use a simple grid to make and share songs
• 'Rhythm' – easy-to-use beatmaking loop that lets you change the percussion instrument
• 'Spectrogram' – a picture of sound that shows the frequencies of different instruments
• 'Chords' – select notes on a small piano to trigger a major, or minor, chord based on that note
• 'Sound Waves' – select notes on a keyboard to make blue dots bounce as sound travels
• 'Arpeggios' – tap the wheel to play notes of a chord, one note at a time
• 'Kandinsky' – inspired by the artist Wassily Kandinsky, anything you draw turns into a sound
• 'Melody Maker' – using a grid form, time moves left to right; pitch goes up and down; and tempo can be changed
• 'Voice Spinner' – spinning like a record player you can record your own voice. Slow, fast, forwards and backwards the sound is affected by the movements
• 'Harmonics' – a series of mathematical frequencies that create naturally occurring intervals
• 'Piano Roll' – inspired by the pianola you can watch the notes flow by, back and forth, and change sounds
• 'Oscillators' –  four different types of oscillators will demonstrate changing vibrations and frequencies
• 'Strings' – conduct experiments and observe the relationship between length of string and pitch
