Symphony Of Motion offers a new unique way to create and experience music without the need for any prior musical knowledge. Whether you're a seasoned musician or a complete beginner, this is a new and intuitive way to create and experience music. In its simplest form, you just move your hands around to create unique sounds, melodies, and rhythms. There are no “wrong” notes to worry about (as you always play in a specific scale) and you can always stay on perfect tempo with the build-in perfect timing assistant. For the more experienced musicians, it also offers a lot of customization options, a build-in looper, and new levels of expressional depth with its three-dimensional motion modulation, live pitch-shifting drums, and melodic pads.

A lot of fun

This app is similar to another app called Virtuoso but is perhaps not as fleshed out as yet. The drumkit of this app has an interesting feature which allows both sides of the drum pad to have a hit event (front and rear side). You can also layer several pads on top of each other at varying distances and then hit the drumstick through all of them in sequence, then pull the stick backwards to repeat the sequence in reverse, this can create an interesting layered drum effect. At first I was going to suggest that the double sided pads be a switchable option, but then discovered that the creator had already thought of that and each pad can be individually switched from single to double sided. The UI is a little low res at this stage and the glow effect could probably do with being toned down a little (or have it adjustable). The excessive glow is most noticeable on the colour swatch selection for the drum pads. I'm still trying to get my head around timing as I think there may be a slight delay, there seems to be a way to overcome poor timing in the settings but I havent quite got it working to my liking as yet. Controlling the volume of the synth by rotating your wrist is nice, however it might be better if we could adjust the degree of rotation required to go from 0-full volume. At present it seems to be based on a 360 degree rotation, and is not really possible to perform unless you are a contortionist with your wrists. Perhaps make it so that only a 180 degree rotation range is needed. All in all, a great effort so far and looking forward to seeing it grow.

Awesome synth playground

I like how cool this free app makes my moves sound 😎🤓. A couple of times I had to re-do the tutorial before I could start motion jamming. Otherwise definitely worth trying out.

An Ingenious VR Music Creation App!

Video review: https://youtu.be/blMtcx4YRDQ The Symphony of Motion app (early access as of the time of this review) allows you to create music tracks without any prior musical background using your body movements in virtual reality. You can create your own original music track by layering loop tracks of synth and drums, using the music looper tool. You can then save and export it as a ".wave" file. Symphony of Motion gives you the ability to interact with virtual objects by using various hand gestures, positions, and rotations to produce original sounds. This music creation VR app will make sure your music is in rhythm by turning on the perfect time option. Many more options include controlling the loop tracks' volume, choosing different drum setups, customizing the drum pad locations, and much more. It's a genius idea that is perfect for virtual reality, as it enables music creators, be they beginners or experienced, to create unique sounds in the way they interact with virtual objects, using different hand movements. You can therefore create a large variety of sounds with only a small selection of objects and control everything using unique body movement interactions. The UI still needs a bit of work, especially the delete option, which I struggled with, but overall, a very accessible and easy-to-use music creation tool. It might look intimidating at first, but trust me, in a few minutes, you'll be rocking some amazing tracks and you'll be vibing to your own original tracks! Highly Recommended!

Move to your music

I bought this as a music creation app firstly. Now having been trying things out I am getting a good workout. You can make the synth like in a circle and move around playing notes. Touch a note, pull your controllers out and move them around and you get more sounds. According to the move I burnt 500 plus calories in 85 mins, not all at the same time. It is real fun and something different to move to. You can get exercise with the drums as well, especially the arms if required and sat if needed. Now don't go thinking that drums means the standard drums sounds, there is a good selection of weird and wonderful sounds you can find with experiment. You can move the sounds around and overlap others to get loads of other different sounds. The choice of sound are so vast in both of them it's a music and sound playground you could spend hours just messing around with no intention of doing any loops. To be fair I do both, when I want to relax I will try build a tune, then at times I just want to move and get some energy out.

State of The Music

Symphony of Motion is a complete synthesizer. You create tracks and combine them, then save them in convenient music files for sharing or editing. It has a wide variety of sounds, mostly synthetic and also drums, with a great many options for customizing it to your taste. There are a variety of recording options easy to use after some experimentation. This is worthy for professional use in my opinion.
