Advantages

There are some advantages when using My Singing Monsters Composer instead of the original Composer Island. There are a greater number of advantages in the app than there are of disadvantages. Some of these advantages in this app include:

• You don't need to buy Monsters.
• There are no ads, unlike the original game.
• It's able to play offline, unlike the original game.
• You can have unlimited songs, unlike Composer Island where you can only have five.
• It doubled the maximum amount songs can hold up to on 4/4, from 64 to 128.
• You are able to add parts.
• There are no in-app purchases.
• Buying MSM Composer unlocks Ghazt on Composer Island in the original game.
• More monsters can be used than on Composer Island, which has only Natural Monsters, Ghazt (for those who bought Composer), and Glowbes.

Disadvantages

There are some disadvantages when using My Singing Monsters Composer instead of the original Composer Island. However, there are a greater number of advantages in the app than there are of disadvantages. Some of these disadvantages in this app include:

• 'Only' up to 25 notes of the same Monster type can be played at a time, by having the limit of 5 of the same Monster, and 5 notes per Monster.
• Many of the sound samples are misleading such as Jellbilly's "bop", and PomPom's "Low".
• The game isn't free, unlike the original game.
• Glowbes cannot be used, unlike the original game.
• It is impossible to view other people's songs within the game, as there is no Friends feature and no top Islands feature.
• Costumes are not available for Monsters in this game, unlike on Composer Island.

Composer App sale advertised in MSM.

An early version of Composer Stage.

Notes

• My Singing Monsters Composer is a paid app, due to it being a "full version" of Composer Island, which is intended to be more of a "free trial" of the experience.
• Unlike Composer Island, My Singing Monsters Composer has ambiance for the composing menu, although the ambience can be muted.
• In My Singing Monsters Composer you can use Dipsters, Rare Monsters, Ethereals, and Core Seasonals with each of them having a unique sound.
  • Dipsters were added on June 16th, 2018.
  • Ethereal Monsters were added on May 14th, 2019.
  • Core Seasonal Monsters were added on April 25th, 2022.
• Core Seasonals have the same notes sound as in their moves from The Colossingum.
• The only Monsters that are usable in MSM Composer, but are not on The Colossingum are Rare Monsters and Dipsters.
• My Singing Monsters Composer, My Singing Monsters Teaching Guide, and My Singing Monsters Thumpies are the only MSM apps that cost money.
• In the 2018 Extra Life Big Blue Bubble livestream it was confirmed that MSM Composer and the Composer Stage weren’t canon to the games' plot and are part of a separate world.
• Although it isn’t canon, Monster Handler Matt said that the island takes place in creative playground dream space and it has its own storyline that is still not canon today.
• Composer is the only My Singing Monsters game that shows Dipster eggs.
• Composer eggs have an unique style, and are reminiscent to how Jammer Splash characters look, (with soft colors and silhouettes blended with the base colors).
• If a Monster plays multiple notes at once, the monster will do its corresponding animation from the last note placed.
• MSM Composer has been discounted by 40% (from $4.99 to $2.99 USD) for each Anniversary Month Celebration (excluding 2021).
  • September 18th 2018 - September 25th 2018
  • September 18th 2019 - September 25th 2019
  • September 25th 2020 - October 2nd 2020
  • September 29th 2022 - October 5th 2022
  • September 25th 2023 - October 4th 2023
• Elements in the game doesn't have much mentions, as you see in the info of the monsters, they have no elements.
  • Although as of Version 2.0, there are different sorting options by class, including ones for Seasonals and Ethereals.
• On Water Island's Sample Song, Fwog is strangely at 0 volume by default.
• Each sample has a Monster playing on the verses they aren't supposed to:
  • Plant Island has Noggin and Drumpler playing at the first track.
  • Cold Island has Dandidoo playing at Tweedle's verse and Mammott playing at Dandidoo's verse.
  • Air Island has PomPom impersonating Hoola, with PomPom also playing at the second quarter of the Stoowarb solo.
  • Water Island has Fwog playing four times at Toe Jammer's verse, instead of the usual three.
  • Earth Island has Shrubb playing at Dandidoo and Furcorn's verse, and Mammott, Shrubb, and Clamble do not play at Cybop's verse.

• Version 2.0 of the game was originally supposed to coincide with its sixth anniversary, but was held back in order to add additional optimization and improvements, on top of lining up with National Composer Day on June 18th (which coincidentally also had Version 4.3.1 of My Singing Monsters releasing the same day).
  • It was then decided to tie them together through the addition of Ghazt on Composer Island (inspired by the exclusive FwoOt & BuTter Costume from completing My Singing Monsters Thumpies, since Monster-Handler Mike is the producer for both projects). This led to allowing players to buy multiple of the aforementioned Costume. Furthermore, Ghazt's addition was also based on it originally having complete sounds & animations for Composer Island, which had remained unused.
• There are 563 usable grid squares on Composer Island where you can place monsters.
