How to read it
- A cross is the hi-hat. In a ring, it's the open hi-hat.
- A circle is the snare.
- A block is the kick, played with your foot.
- A bigger shape is a loud note, a smaller one a soft note.
Each bar has 16 steps: count them "1 e & a 2 e & a". Space plays and stops. In the grid, the arrow keys move and Enter adds or takes away a note.
