Now all input into the central area effects this melody only and it is connected to the time and decay symbols.
Create, Generate or Delete
To create your own melody, tap in the circle. The closer to the center the quieter the volume of the note.
Your patterns will then be looped and played back.
Aura can automatically generate a pattern for you by simply tapping in the center of the circle.
The current pattern can be deleted by holding down in the center for a couple of seconds.
Volume, Decay and Sequence Length
The volume of a melody can be adjusted by moving the melody symbol around the edge of the circle, fluctuating between maximum and minium.
The decay controls the volume reduced on each loop of the pattern.
The Sequence Length controls the number of notes in the pattern.
Adjust these by moving them around the edge of the center circle, each melody has its own individual settings.

Auras are the soothing background sounds you can hear, and constantly evolving.
These can be controlled in 'Create Mode' through the circle buttons in the 4 corners of the screen.
Adjust or Generate
By tapping in each corner the Aura flips between auto-evolve or manual. If the circle is pulsating, the Aura automatically evolves over time. If not, you are in full control of it.
You can change each Aura by moving the corner circles, each screen edge has a different mood and the volume is reduced by moving it towards the corner of the screen.

In 'Create Mode', shaking the device will reset all sounds (All Auras will turn off, and melodies will be reset)
For both modes, rotation or moving the device left or right will adjust the mood of the music by adjust the Auras and the colours.
