The Musical Notes are five sentient eighth notes that appear above Star Spaces in Toadette's Music Room in Mario Party DS. When reaching a Star Space, the present Musical Note will offer a Star in exchange for coins. Each note will require a different amount, ordered from least to most expensive; the blue, green, yellow, orange, and red notes will accept 5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 coins respectively.
When the Star Space is relocated, the next Musical Note in the cycle will appear above it. Moving the Star Space with a Mysterious Metronome allows Musical Notes to be skipped without anyone purchasing a Star.
The Musical Notes' individual identities are contradictory between the North American and European versions of the game. The NA names are a reference to the lines of the treble clef staff, from bottom to top (E-G-B-D-F). Instead, the EU version has them named after the first five notes in the C major scale (C-D-E-F-G). This results in dialogue for Musical Notes B and C being exclusive to the NA and EU versions respectively. Similarly, the Japanese and Korean versions designate names based on Western solfège (Do-Re-Mi-Fa-Sol).
In the Collection, the Musical Notes are listed under #28 of "Board Features" as the secret item from Toadette's Music Room. They can be unlocked through placing first on said board after earning the Toadette Friend Badge.
