Noteblock Backport

1. 01

   Iron Xylophone and Iron Block

   Two iron-based instrument blocks give the build a metallic tone and a mallet-like attack for melodies.

2. 02

   Cow Bell and Bit Square Wave

   Cow bell and bit square wave blocks add percussion and chiptune voices alongside the standard note block sounds.

3. 03

   Emerald, Hay Bale and Soul Sand

   Blocks made from emerald, hay and soul sand each carry a different instrument voice, usable in the same redstone circuits.

4. 04

   Pling Electric Piano

   A pling electric piano block provides a keyboard tone, useful for chord parts and melodies in a composition.

Who it’s for: Music builders, redstone players and map makers on Minecraft 1.12.2 with Forge who want more instrument sounds than the vanilla note block offers. Players on a server need the mod installed on the server as well.

The Sound of Raindrums is a client-side only Forge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.4 under the MIT License, and it is not open source, so players alone run it. Just Hammers Backport is a client and server Forge mod for 1.12.2 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is not open source, so it has to be on both sides as well. Extended Noteblock is a client and server Forge mod for 1.16.5 – 1.19.2 with all rights reserved, so its version range does not reach 1.12.2.

Noteblock Backport is one of 29,952 Game mechanics mods on ModsFinder, and one of 13,316 Game mechanics mods for Forge. 2,920 mods support Minecraft 1.12.2.
