Start playing
Choose a melody and follow the finger cues.
Every song runs in the browser instrument. You do not need a keyboard, MIDI controller, account, or download. Show the requested number with one hand, wait for confirmation, and the instrument plays the next melody note.
The picker shows song length, tempo, difficulty, recommended voice, Practice or Quest mode, phrase preview, and Beat Pulse.
Open the instrument, choose Song Quest, pick a title, and start the countdown.

During Song Quest
The current number leads. The smaller numbers prepare you.
Practice begins with a short count-in and then waits for correct gestures. Ranked Quest waits for a stable hand before the countdown, then follows the song's timing. A large cue shows the hand shape to perform now while smaller cues show what comes next.
A correct new gesture earns timing feedback, points, and combo progress. A wrong or late gesture becomes a MISS and names the next target. Repeated cues may use the same held shape as HOLD ASSIST, but the held pose does not add ranked score.
The lane keeps the current cue large, previews upcoming shapes, and separates full-song progress from the current note's timing bar.
Music sources
Playable phrases, not bundled recordings.
The library uses single-line versions of public-domain compositions and traditional melodies. Each song defines its own pitch, rhythm, note length, tempo, and finger cues.
The site does not include third-party recordings, MIDI files, lyrics, or modern arrangements. Read the Gesture Synth sheet music guide to understand the one-to-five cues, or compare the recommended synth voices used for different phrases.
