The three rows can be slid around and the red button can be pressed to rotate all six segments in the center. To turn all of the symbols to the unlocked version, all of the symbols on the side need to be the unlocked version while all six in the center need to be the locked version.

The center row can be pressed one time to complete the puzzle.

The goal of this puzzle is to place all of the green notes in the sections with the matching golden notes. There are two slots on the side where notes can be placed and each of the three columns can be rotated up and down.
