Create Mode
Groovy uses three animated themes– Groovy Shapes, Groovy Jungle or Groovy City. Each theme contains palettes of animated objects representing musical building blocks such as melodies, rhythms, and chords. Students simply drag the objects onto the screen, where they snap harmonically into the song being created. It’s very engaging for students to make music by building up their own animated song - and lots of fun!
Graphic
Note and Rhythm Editors Students can overlay graphic notes and a musical staff onto their animated song to view and edit the music they have created. And when editing a rhythm, work with a grid display where they can work visually with continuous looping playback. It's fun!
