Ill start with the basics. By which I mean this book that Jonathan found. The origin of Note Beasts.

Long ago, the people of this land lived in fear of the monsters that roamed the continent. However, this was no way to live. That is why the first Conductor, Alcen, summoned the first Note Beast. Using Notes, Note Beasts can be summoned from the depths of one's heart. This means Note Beasts are not summoned from another world, but are an aspect of the human soul. Given physical form, they strive to protect their closest friend, the Conductor. Conductors and Note Beasts share a deep and unbreakable connection.

Next up, The First Symphony Summon.

Long ago, it was discovered that by having multiple Conductors work together with a single summon, they could perform a Symphony Summon. This would cost one thousand lives in total. The Conductors would all be combined into the Symphony Summon beast. It was defeated long ago by Alcen and the first Conductors, but it is unknown how.

Current History Up Until One Year Ago

Six guilds are known throughout the world. Hero's Sun, which was set up to protect the world by the first Conductors. It is one of the largest guilds with an academy that teaches students about Note Beasts. Storm, a new and small guild. The leader, Hurain, hopes to work with Hero's Sun to protect the world. They were actually the first guild to join the efforts against the Symphony Summon. The Golden Mercenaries. A large group of mercenaries that will do anything if the price is right. The Grand Library, seeking only knowledge in the world, only focuses on filling their large library. The Ancient Warriors have a strict training regimen and pass down years of tradition and culture. Finally, Dark Conquest. They worked to take over the world. But the leader was blinded by greed. He tried to use the Symphony Summon to take over the world. He failed.

The Second Symphony Summon

As the summon was performed successfully, the heroes failed. The Symphony Summon destroyed all of the guilds and every major city. Those that survived the blasts were mixed with their Note Beasts, becoming Beastmen. Beastmen were shunned and hated by humans outside of the Hope Guild. They are considered monsters by those outside of the Hope Guild. Speaking of which, the Hope Guild is the remains of the old guilds, now reunited under a single flag. Their purpose is survival. Regarding the old leaders, Hurain died in battle against the Symphony Summon. As he fought, he sacrificed himself to give Lawrence enough time to seal the beast. Lawrence was fused with his Note Beasts, turning into a Beastman. He works for the Hope Guild, keeping watch over the sealed Note Beast. But from his condition, he will never be able to fight again. Lilliana, leader of Hero's Sun was heartbroken to hear that her mission was an utter failure. Nobody has heard from her since. Rumors say that she died afterwards. Most likely a suicide. Narusaki, leader of Ancient Warriors, works with the Hope Guild as an active leader. However, she prefers to give guidance instead of take full ownership of the guild. Frex, leader of the Golden Mercenaries, disappeared after the Symphony Summon. Its assumed that he died in the blast that hit his army. Syak, leader of Dark Conquest, was the first victim of the Symphony Summon. He was eaten alive by the beast. Its said that all twelve heads took a bite just to make a point.

Now to answer your question.

Note Beasts are like Digimon. But they're like Digimon that are a part of you and linked to your heart. When you summon one, I will give you its appearance and element based on the note type and song you provide. You control it and decide its personality though. Same thing goes with rank ups. Depending on song and gem type, ill decide what changes about its element and appearance, but you decide all the skills and such.
