You'll find on the Piano Pad 25 keys, which represents 2 octaves from a traditional keyboard, with an additional "C" on the right.
Effect ribbon: slide your finger from left to right to adjust the effect level, by default the effect is off.
Effect bubble: press it to activate the associated effect, the effect is more or less intense depending on the pressure exerted and is deactivated when you release the pressure.

The effects vary according to the chosen sound.

The Play Drum Pad is composed of 12 squares, each with its own percussive sound.
Effect area: allows you to adjust two parameters (effects) along two axes X and Y. Drag your finger across this space to adjust the desired amount of each effect. On the X-axis (horizontal) add distortion to your rhythm track and on the Y-axis (vertical) adjust the reverb to your drum sounds.
Effect bubble: allows you to add various sound effects to the drums when you press on them.

The Guitar Pad represents a guitar neck. The leftmost note of each string is the note of the "open" string. Vibrato, slide, and glissando features are available on this pad.
Effect area: allows you to control the effects for each sound. Move your finger up and down to adjust the intensity of the effect.
Effect bubble: allows you to activate an effect when you apply pressure to it. The intensity of the effect varies according to the pressure applied.

Composed of 17 keys, the Play Keys Pad allows you to play melodies or soundtracks with a fixed scale (set of musical notes). You can change the scale of the Keys pad by using the "tuning" feature directly in the application.

Effect ribbon: controls the intensity of the effect by sliding your finger from left to right.
Effect bubble: Add a second effect to your sound, its intensity will be proportional to the pressure exerted on the bubble.
