The music aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with users praising the potential for creativity and ease of use in music-making software like Music 2000 and Magix Music Maker. However, many express frustration over reliability issues, such as frequent crashes and missing sound loops, which hinder the overall experience and professional use. While some users find value in the software for casual music creation, others recommend more advanced programs like Fruity Loops for serious musicians.
“I have spent 400 hours on this, learned a lot, and made a lot. I learned how to use music makers on Music 2000 on PS1; making music is awesome!”
“It allows you to generate music on-the-fly, save it, and edit it later.”
“Great value if you don't already have a music maker edition.”
“Fruity Loops is better for someone who wants to be a professional musician, but if you are going that route you might as well go all out and go with the high-end programs; even Fruity Loops isn't that high-end.”
“How is anyone supposed to produce music with this?”
“Magix Music Maker crashes all the time!”

Users note that while the game's real-time mechanics may lead to occasional timing errors and mistakes during initial runs, these issues can be rectified later, allowing players to refine their performances for a more enjoyable experience.
“Due to their real-time nature, there's bound to be some hit and miss in your trial-by-fire runs; timing errors and wrong chord progressions can be corrected after the fact, allowing you to polish your saved performance to a more pleasant state.”
