This month's theme is a dual theme! For the first theme, you are only allowed to place notes in the bottom half of the editor (B4 and below), and for the second, you are only allowed to place notes in the top half of the editor (C5 and above). Keep in mind that this also applies to the various drum kits!
Please keep in mind that, for the sake of the theming of the contest, using the console to set a custom detune to outside the bounds of what the detune slider normally allows for (±1200) is NOT allowed. Using the console to set a detune WITHIN the bounds is permitted.
- In light of the recent poll, a console detune more negative than -1200 for the bottom-half editor theme and a console detune of greater than 1200 for the top-half editor theme is allowed.
