If you've played Geo for any length of time, you've probably noticed that sometimes the strings turn color, to blue or red. This is not a random light show; it's actually giving you useful information about octave rounding. I asked Rob Fielding about it, and he offered this explanation:
""If Octave rounding is on, change it so you can actually see the octave control. The octave control buttons: the one on the left that does 'down octave' has some blue line on it, the one on the right has 'up octave' has some red line on it. It happens to be that the horizontal line matches which octave button gets pressed when you touch that area.
""So if you see that you are about to hit some note, like a C# and the horizontal line is red in that area, you know that when you touch it that it will press the 'octave up' button for you just before the note goes down."""
