Town tunes can also be played on instruments that can be bought in Tom Nook's stores (every game before Animal Crossing: New Leaf) or the Nookling Stores (Animal Crossing: New Leaf only). If music is playing at the same time, the instrument plays at the same speed. The player can change the notes by selecting a frog and moving the frog up or down. If a frog is pulled up to the top, the frog will play a random note. If a frog is pulled to the bottom, the frog will not play a note and will be silent. If a frog is pulled to the note above the bottom, it will sustain the previous note.
