(This is just a heads up for now, I will formally post/submit my sheets here later when I'm at a computer with Finale)

I have the following arrangements completed:
- "Teatime Joy" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSP9bPRDGHw) from Fire Emblem: Three Houses
- "Gourmet Race" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se1uh3PS78Y) (solo) from Kirby Super Star

I'll be attempting to finish up some old in-progress sheets for the following:
- "Peronza Plaza" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcna3E-9_hY) from Super Mario Odyssey
- "Dangerous Dinner" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMQHNR5mtjo) from Kirby's Return to Dream Land

Hopefully more to come later :)

I haven't started lol, it was a suggestion.

However, I've always been a fan of the Menu Theme. I think I'll start with that.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. These are the only sheets I have that have anything to do with food:

- [NES] Kirby's Adventure - "Yogurt Yard Map"
- [GB] The Final Fantasy Legend - "Eat the Meat"


-- and that's it. We're looking at a pretty scarce update...

... unless I can brainstorm and arrange some more, which, at the moment, include:

- [SNES] Kirby Super Star - "Dreaming of Food", "Crash! Gourmet Race", & "Hilltop Chase"
- [N64] Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards - "Goal Game"
- [GBA] Kirby & The Amazing Mirror - "Radish Ruins"
- [3DS] Kirby Battle Royale - "Apple Scramble"
-[WiiU] New Super Mario Bros. U - "Acorn Plains


A lot of Kirby tunes. I might think of some more, but don't count on these being done very quickly; I just started on my semester composition project.

Here's an entry I worked up. It's a replacement, but the title fit with the theme, so here it is.

Luckily, I have a few tasty sheets laying around, as well as a new one I made today...

Edit: Well, I was finishing up my arrangement and typing up this post at around the same time you posted yours here, NineLives - I didn't expect both of us to do it lol
I'm fine with using either sheet as the update goes forward, but I figured I'd post mine here anyways.

Well, to be fair, I didn't really post mine on my own piano arrangement topic first since I only just created mine today. I'll admit yours is far more detailed and since I've already got another SMK replacement sheet to be submitted soon, I could withdraw mine.

Looks great

Regarding Choco Island: I'd suggest that we go with Static's. Don't mean that in any bad way for NineLives - just that it'd take a significant amount of work to get it up to a level comparable to Static's.

Fair enough. I think I'll call dibs on "Sweet Sweet Canyon" from Mario Kart 8 instead before someone else does.

Looks good! Just a couple small things.
- I recommend against condensing beats 1.5-2 and 3.5-4 into quarter rests in the LH (in m. 5 and such) as they obscure the downbeat and make reading along with the RH a bit harder.
- I don't think the bass plays on beat 3.5 in m. 13/15.

Added three new sheets tonight. Some notes for the updaters, in case they ask:

1. [SNES] Kirby Super Star - "Dreaming of Food"

A pretty straight-forward tune; only had to make a small rhythm sacrifice in the LH. The last chord is a little more dissonant than I remember.

2. [N64] Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards - "Goal Game"

I'm hearing 8th note movement in both hands, but I decided to simplify the lower voice for the purpose of playing. Hope it's right.

3. [GBA] Kirby & The Amazing Mirror - "Radish Ruins"

Kirby Wiki Discord says it's okay to use this title, even if the tune isn't entirely exclusive to the Radish Ruins area. I can't decipher what's going on in the percussion very well, so I made the A-flat octave triplet in the LH a recurring pattern. Don't know if that's the best way to go, so I'm open to anyone's ideas.

Only three more to go. Thanks, updaters!

Yeah, but "Fishy" is just what one person translated it as. The official title has nothing to do with fish, it just means "dubious" or "suspicious", so it feels very arbitrary.
Not that I wouldn't love to have it on the site :)

Looks pretty solid! A few initial thoughts:
- There should be something signaling the introduction of the melody in beat 3 of measure 4. One thing I'd suggest is using a p dynamic at the beginning and having the rest of the song be mp/mf from there.
- Measures 8 and 16 beat 3 should have an A# in the right hand, layer 2.
- Measure 21+ would be better as arpeggios of single notes in the left hand instead of trying to combine multiple layers and having some releating notes
More to come later! Also, be sure to make the changes to the Finale file that Static uploaded to the Dropbox folder, as that contains a couple of formatting fixes like the header.

Really great work. Just a few small things from me:
- This could look definitely a little nicer if you reduced the space between LH/RH to add more space between systems, particularly on page 2
- The "tap pen/pencil" marking might make a bit more sense at m. 38 where there are actually notes on the bottom staff. Maybe...
- Maybe a mf dynamic for the percussion? (i.e. not staying at f for the rest of the song)

Looks awesome. I'd just suggest adjusting the slurs in m. 20 and 28 a bit since they look a bit awkward sloping down from the notehead to the note stem even though the notes are ascending.

I have changed measure 21-28. Measure 29-48 seems fine, but if it needs additional changes, I could fix them.

I went back and listened, and it turns out there is indeed a G4 in that last chord. Deleted the C and put a G in between that E-flat - B-flat perfect fifth. Updated the file, too.

Also, you can go ahead and update the YouTube link for this one in the OP:

- I think I'd like to keep them where they are since that's when the percussion section starts. The directions may also be harder to follow if they're on different systems.
- Done (made the final part forte for some extra contrast also).

That may look weird, I agree, but having the slurs go upward on the 2nd layer also looks weird. I made it so every slur goes from stem to stem and ends right on top of each staccato mark, so everything is consistent between layers.

Thanks for the feedback!



After discussing with Latios, we've decided to add some of Sebastian's sheets to the pile - pretty simple/short ones. Here's my first look at them (links are to the original unedited files). Note that these are all checks for accuracy and playability; I'm leaving the original arrangement decisions intact.

Banjo-Tooie - Honey B's Hive (https://www.dropbox.com/s/vh5b0q16z41b62i/Honey%20B%27s%20Hive.mus?dl=1)
- http to https
- Moved copyright/url info to be within the margins.
- Other than that, pretty good.

Mario Kart Wii - Maple Treeway (https://www.dropbox.com/s/czcvhfcn9obpaag/Maple%20Treeway%20%28Unedited%29.mus?dl=1)
- Added slurs to grace notes that were missing (the sheet was inconsistent in this regard).
- Adjusted beaming in the RH in m4, 8, 11, etc. that were incorrect bc of the way Finale handles grace notes.
- m15-18: Moved the crescendo marking so it's not in the way of anything.
- m21, 25, 33 RH beat 3: Changed rhythm to 16th rest - dotted 8th note and added grace note. Added staccatos to these notes. Added the final note in the line to beat 1 of m22, and used a dashed line for m34.
- I'm not really a fan of staccatos on dotted notes, but I think it helps make the sheet more clear and easy to read in this particular case.
- The chords in the 2nd part of the song (LH) sound kind of odd since the bass note isn't the bottom note most of the time. The chords are correct though.
- Moved the crescendo in m37 so it isn't too close to anything.
- m38-40 RH: Quarter note Eb on beat 3 of m38 should be 2 8th notes, same for beat 3 of m39 (one octave lower). The tie between 39-40 should not be there (notes are rearticulated).
- Made the system spacing more even throughout.
- http to https
- Moved copyright/url info to be within the margins.
Bassline changes:
- m3, 5, 7, 9 LH beat 3.5, 4.5: Bb to Cb, low Bb to Cb.
- m6 LH beat 3.5: Bb moved 1 octave higher.
- m10 LH beat 3.5: Bb to Eb, 2 Bbs on beat 4 to quarter note D.
- m11, 15 LH beat 3.5: Cn to Cb.
- m12, 16 LH beat 4.5: Dn to Db.
- m13, 17 LH beat 3: Removed tie so C rearticulates (m13 only). Moved Bbs on beat 3.5 and 4.5 one octave higher. Made Bb on beat 4 staccato.
- m27 LH  beat 4.5: A to B.


Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door - Cooking With Zess T. (https://www.dropbox.com/s/vh5b0q16z41b62i/Honey%20B%27s%20Hive.mus?dl=1)
- m10-15: Normally the LH dynamics should be below the staff, but in this case I think it's actually more readable/understandable here since the LH is in kind of a weird range. Treble clef definitely works better in this section, but because of that, the notes are somewhat low in relation to the staff. I think it's fine keeping it like it is (though I did adjust some of the mf markings since they were a bit too close to the notes).
- Adjusted the slur between m17-18 so it's one of those fancy S slurs instead of going through the entire system and getting in the way of clefs/notes/etc.
- http to https
- Moved copyright/url info to be within the margins.


All the changes have been made and all the files are in the folder.



I have a new sheet as well: Wario Land: Shake It! - "Large Fry Cook-Off" (https://drive.google.com/open?id=18UJgLiM5bPEfLNb-A-TtDx3ejLusrLVy) (added to folder)

I think that you really ought to merge this with the Intermission theme. The songs are short enough for them to fit onto one page.

Also, I'm hearing the "Game Start" theme (as it should be called,) as C major. This applies to most incarnations of the theme, including the original arcade version and early ports on the NES and Game Boy.

Quote from: Latios212 on January 28, 2020, 03:54:33 PMI think I'm hearing a G instead of a C in the last chord. Other than that, looks great.
Quote from: LeviR.star on January 29, 2020, 11:28:12 PMI went back and listened, and it turns out there is indeed a G4 in that last chord. Deleted the C and put a G in between that E-flat - B-flat perfect fifth. Updated the file, too.
Cool. Approved!

- I think I'd like to keep them where they are since that's when the percussion section starts. The directions may also be harder to follow if they're on different systems.
- Done (made the final part forte for some extra contrast also).

Let's Go Down the Wine River
That may look weird, I agree, but having the slurs go upward on the 2nd layer also looks weird. I made it so every slur goes from stem to stem and ends right on top of each staccato mark, so everything is consistent between layers.

Thanks for the feedback!
All sounds and looks good for these two!

Looks (and sounds) good, but are you sure about the double sharp on measure 2 beat 2?
Yeah, I think this would be better as a G natural. A bit odd because of the G# grace notes but I think it's clearer what exactly is happening with Gn.
Also, in m. 3 you have an A#-Bb and Fx-Gn grace notes. I assume you want the chromatic neighboring tones (A and F#) instead of the same note spelled differently.
Other than that, yes, looks great!



Hungry March - Libera
- Measure 1 beat 3 (RH) needs to be adjusted visually a bit
- I'm not 100% sure, but I've heard the F-G on beats 3.5-4 of m. 6 as part of the melody (top layer).
- I think the chords in the last couple measures need to be inverted up once (similar to the voicing at the beginning)

(One thing to note about this one is that there should possibly be a courtesy key signature at the repeat since it goes back to the former key, but I wasn't sure how to format that - does it go in front of the repeat? After?)

- After discussing with you and Latios about titles, I decided to stick with the album names for both the start and intermission themes. Keys for both have been tuned down to be in tune with their console renditions (C and F, respectively)

Keys for the actual renditions. The console versions just happen to be tuned better.

You could put a repeat sign at the end of Coffee Break, since it loops back to the start at least once at every Pac-Man intermission.

Looks accurate, nice job. A couple things about the engraving:
- The tied eighths everywhere except for the first pair in m. 8 should be quarter notes instead.
- Move a couple of measures up so the third system isn't stretched and the last isn't squished. Each system could have 3 or 4 measures.

Now, about the key signatures... I don't really know how to evaluate this piece haha. Hopefully someone else with a bit more knowledge about bitonal/atonal stuff can comment on that.

(One thing to note about this one is that there should possibly be a courtesy key signature at the repeat since it goes back to the former key, but I wasn't sure how to format that - does it go in front of the repeat? After?)
For the courtesy key signature - one thing you can do is insert a measure with the new keysig, hide the extra barline, insert a hidden repeat marking to skip over it, and squish it using the Measure tool so that it takes no horizontal space. That said, I don't think it's too necessary here because the forward repeat bar is at the beginning of a system (i.e. the performer can see that the keysig is clear there). But if you want that clarity, go right ahead!

Other stuff about this one:
- The dynamic markings (mp/mf) are all a bit too much to the right. Speaking of dynamics, I feel like given the march style of this piece you could use f instead of mf. Up to you, though.
- I'm not hearing the upper notes in the RH for the dyads in m. 6/8/14/16.

Great work! Very nice and clean.

In the context that the track appears in-game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAZ8JfTpxSk), however, it's meant to have that sound of coming through tinny speakers in a fast food restaurant.

A note about the composer of this piece...
Finding the composer for this track gave me a bit of trouble (as is often the case for this series). The closest thing I could find was someone with the title "Sound Artist" as can be seen in the end credits (https://youtu.be/4mgy8pJPSGQ?t=256), so I hope that's close enough. Not sure what role the people from "Delfi Sound Inc." who are listed directly after played, but "Sound Artist" seemed like the most important title so I went with that.

- Move a couple of measures up so the third system isn't stretched and the last isn't squished. Each system could have 3 or 4 measures.

Don't know why I left it like that, but I've fixed it up now.
I also removed the time signature changes in the middle because I felt it wasn't really necessary.

I have considered notating it in Db Major (based on the final chord), C Major, or Gb Major, but I think the split double signatures makes the most sense and looks the cleanest.

Gotcha. Well, I can't disagree with the sheet being relatively straightforward to read like this :P

Last couple of things with this one - the tie over the key signature change in m. 7-8 is visibly broken. Also, the middle quarter in m. 10 should be two tied eighths.

Done.
Took me a while to figure out how to fix the tie, and I was considering just covering up with a slur.

Quote[GCN] Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door - "Cooking With Zess T." (https://youtu.be/TfVTGxhzGDE)

I'm hearing some more notes you could add into the first half (G's in m-29 except for m7 in which they're A's) in order to match the pace/hectic nature of the original better (they're actually pairs of 16ths instead of single 8ths but that would be really hard to play):

I would suggest removing the p's from m10-15 LH—I think the octave vs no-octave is contrast enough, and the p's in the second half of each makes it suddenly feel really empty since there's no other accompaniment happening in the sheet.

Bottom harmony notes in m17 dyads should be Eb-Dn-Eb-Dn (thirds, not fourths).

The accompaniment in the original is doing something completely different from what you have in the LH right now—it's jumping up intervals and ascending as the right hand does, and it sounds like the harmonies are changing as well. I would suggest taking another listen and figuring out what's really happening there (I would try it myself but I lost my headphones and the rest was already hard enough to hear, rip). I would also try to mimic the relative octaves of the alternating dyads in m16-17 as closely as possible, even though the melody line (which is also constantly jumping down) might make it harder there.

This sounds really good but I have to question the right hand in m7-8... Also, I think that the LH dyads might actually all be triads in m17-24—for example, I'm hearing F#'s and G's under the dyads in m17-18 (i.e. F#-B-D#, G-C-E, and G-B-E triads).

I wasn't sure whether or not to notate the guitar chords, as they require some insane jumps in the left hand, so I've left them out for now. I have a version with them included if people think it'd be good to have them, though. I also considered moving the melody up an octave in measures 45-46 for clarity, let me know if that seems like a good idea or not.

I could write it as a glissando instead, but the run fits evenly into those measures, so I'd rather keep it as-is. The thing about the triads is true, but I decided to keep it all dyads so it's easier.

Thanks for the feedback, both of you!

Link can cook with it to create "Sneaky" dishes or sell it for ten Rupees. Like all flowers it is classified as an "Herb" and will usually produce herb based dishes when cooked... etc.

Treat Land - Rubikium
Cool, thanks for the fixes. The remainder of my feedback:
- F should restrike under the melody in m. 18 beat 3.
- I'm not sure the grace notes on page 2 really work? They distract from the smoothness of the melody quite a bit and I don't really hear them in the original.
- m. 31 should have a C# in the right hand
- I'd suggest adding more harmonies in m. 43+ since the music is at a climax here. For m. 44 for example the middle voices plays Eb - (holds Eb) - Db and ends on a C in m. 45. Some more thickness in the chords here would help the sound.
- The notes between the staves demand some more space in between the staves. Specifically m. 6 and 49-50.
- I think the left hand pattern for m. 21 should be like the one in m. 22 (ascending to beat 3) - similar for the measures following it
- For the main left hand pattern in m. 29-42 I'd consider putting beat 1 down an octave and seeing how that sounds to you. It would bring out the deeper bass tones in the original without making the entire pattern too bassy.

Good work!



Quote from: McDucky on February 02, 2020, 02:36:29 PMDon't know why I left it like that, but I've fixed it up now.

I have considered notating it in Db Major (based on the final chord), C Major, or Gb Major, but I think the split double signatures makes the most sense and looks the cleanest.
Okay, cool! I adjusted a few final things - double barlines at the key changes, a note flipping issue in m. 11, a clarifying courtesy accidental in m. 8 (keysig makes it look like a different note, parentheses help clarify it's the same note), moved m. 14 up a system to balance out the last couple systems, and bumped the tempo marking up slightly. Let me know if I messed up anything. Approving this one!

I have a lot of feedback tonight:
Zeila - Link's Memories: 'Silent Princess'
- m12, 16 LH: Fn should be E# (C#7 chords)
- m20: That grace note slur might look better flipped upwards instead.
- m24-27 LH: Abs should be G#s (G7 chords without the 5th), Gns should be Fxs (chromatic neighbor), Bb in m27 should be A#.
- m25, 27 RH: Any reason you went with 32nds instead of grace notes? Either is fine, I'm just wondering. The B# in m27 would probably be better written as a C in this case. The main reason is to match m25 but there's another harmonic line of reasoning I was thinking about. It's kind of weird bc there are so few notes here, but if you think of the dyads in the LH as being part of parallel dominant 7th chords, then the chord here is a G7, and B# isn't a part of that chord/scale (even if the key is something different, I think its better to pick accidentals based on the current chord or scale, but it depends) Sorry, this is kind of a lot to say for one tiny little thing, so if you have any questions let me know.

Radiak488417 - Apple Woods
- Copyright info text size should match the Arranger/Composer info.
- m1-8, 25-32 LH: Those long notes sound like they only last for 1 measure, not 2.
- m19, 43 RH beat 3: This note should be staccato.
- m24 LH beat 3: There should be a low Eb here.
- m45-46 RH: Bn should be Cb, An should be Bbb.
- m57, 59 RH beats 1-2: I feel like these spots should stand out a bit more, either by adding some extra harmonies (since there are some more in the original), or with dynamics. They should contrast with the lone quarter notes in m57/69 beat 3 to m58/60.
- m78 RH beat 3: This Gb should actually be F# since it's a chromatic line moving upwards.
[close]
Maelstrom - Strawberry Crisis!!
- The "Dim.Dream" part of the title shouldn't have a space between "Dim." and "Dream".
- m55 RH: Courtesy natural for the An perhaps?
- m60-61: Ending numbers are a bit too close to the notes for my liking.
- m66: mf is touching barline.
- Make sure you specify that you want the LH 8vb to end after m97.
- https
- Developer should be "ZUN Soft", along with publisher Amusement Makers (this applies to all the PC-98 Touhou games btw).
[close]
Nine Lives - Sweet Sweet Canyon
- The LH should be full chords, not just octaves. Listen again and try to pick out some of those harmonies, but if you need help let me know.
- m18 RH: It doesn't sound like there's a grace note on beat 3.
- m19 RH: I would put that lower line in Layer 2 like m20 (keep beat 2 an 8th note).
- m28: Why a dotted quarter note here, but not in m30? You should keep your beat groupings consistent.
- m45-52 RH: The lower octave becomes a different harmony at m50 beat 4. It might also be a good idea to include some other harmonies here (whole notes in the RH as a 2nd layer, perhaps), since some of the chords sound like they're missing something. m50 for example is an A7 chord, but it's impossible to tell that in the sheet because there's no C# (or Cn for that matter) - you can't tell if it's major or minor unless you've listened to the original.
- m53-56 should still be in C major, this is just a classic Mario-style bVI-bVII-I walk-up (Ab major chord to Bb major to C major).
- Key changes should have double barlines.
Bassline stuff:
- m7, 11, 19, 23: Beat 4 should be F# instead of G.
- m8: There should be another G on beat 2.
- m12: Beat 4.5 should be a G instead of B (same octave as the Gs right before it)
- m15: Beats 3-4 should be Abs (I know it sounds weird, but that's what's there)
- m18: Bns should be Bbs.
- m24: Beat 2.5 and 4 should be Ds instead of Gs. There shouldn't be a note on beat 3.5.
- m26: Beat 1 should be an octave lower. There should be 2 8th notes on beat 4 (4th space G and third line D).
- m27: Beat 2.5 should be an octave lower with a grace note G at the current octave.
- m41: Beats 1-2 should be Abs, Beat 3 should be Eb, Beat 4 should be a G.
- m42: Beats 1-2 should be 4 8th notes (Ab-Ab-Ab-Eb). Beat 3.5 should be Eb.
- m43: Beat 3 should be Fn.
- m44: Beat 1 and 2.5 should be an octave lower. Beat 2.5 should not be tied; Beat 3 should be 2 8th note Gs, Beat 4 should be A.
- m47: Beat 4 should be F# instead of G.
- m48: Beat 4 should be long, not staccato.
- m55: Beat 4 should be An.
- m56: Beat 4 should be 2 8th notes (Bb to Bn, 2nd line).
- m60: Beat 2.5 should not be tied. Beats 3-4 should be an 8th rest and then a dotted quarter note G.

Code_Name_Geek - Frozen Pizza and Eggs (Shane's Theme)
- That E in m16 sounds like it should be an octave higher.
- m28: Since you already have that G in layer 2, make it a half note and make the next half note an E below it. It matches up with the string part there.

- Not sure if you intended to or not, but there's a few ghosted guitar notes you didn't include - I think it's fine not to include all of them but just letting you know.
- For this bluesy New Orleans kinda style, I think it should definitely be notated in the major key, so thanks for doing that.

Greg - Yoob's Belly
- First off, really great work capturing all the little intricacies of this piece! I think it's easy to lose sight of them in a more atmospheric tune like this one, but you nailed it.
- Game title should be Mario & Luigi, not and.
- The piece is in C major (C lydian), so I would personally make the key signature all naturals, but this has been an ongoing discussion here for quite some time. I'm fine leaving it if you think it's better to chose the key signature based on mode rather than tonal center.
- m3 should probably go back to mezzopiano.
- For those 8th note Ds in m3 and onwards, you might want to add a tenuto to emphasize their length compared to the other 16th notes.
- I think the dynamic should come back down to mp after m23.
- Copyright info should also have AlphaDream since they were the developers, even if they're defunct now.

You're absolutely right, I went to play this on piano today and those spots had escaped my attention. I just brought the dyad down to the next chord tones, it doesn't disrupt the sound of it much at all.

- I think the tuba part is actually D-C#-B-A in m. 15 and D-C#-B-C# in m. 16, in which case I had it wrong anyways. I changed it to that.

- I would specify "L.H." in the "play one octave lower than written" note.
- The consecutive 16ths in the LH in m1-3 are really hard to play with the thumb. I would suggest changing those into single 8th notes since it shouldn't sound that different anyway.
- m3-4 in the RH looks pretty difficult to play, and while I imagine the notes are there, that's not really the line I hear most on a first listen to the original. Is there an easier/more prominent melody to include there instead?
- I think a lot of the eighth notes in the melody (m5-19) could use staccatos.
- m5, m8, m11, m13, and m16 all have a 16th-note triplet instead of two 16th notes on beat 1.5. This is also true of m17 and m19, but it's much harder to play a repeated dyad that fast (with a single note you can use different fingers in rapid succession), so I would only make the change in the aforementioned measures.
- I'm also hearing an F and an A (in addition to the D, which is the highest note) on beat 3 of m30 RH.

Looks great. Just a couple small things.
- m. 16 is missing the pickup to m. 17.
- Maybe staccatos would be nice on the bass notes in beat 4 of m. 23 to best 3 of m. 24?
- I think some of those chords at the end would be better off using flats (the D#/C#/G# chords in particular). Up to you though.

This week didn't give me a lot of time to do the sheets I wanted to, so the last arrangement I've made just for this update is "Crash! Gourmet Race", which is now in my Dropbox folder. "Apple Scramble" and "Hilltop Chase" will just have to wait.

To make up for this setback, I've also added a previously made sheet, from Kirby's Block Ball, to my folder.

"Crash! Gourmet Race" Arranger's Notes
- I had trouble deciphering the bass drum in m. 2, so I just made it a simple octave tremolo
- the glissando on beat 4 of m. 3 is flexible, I really don't care what note it starts on
- for the LH in the repeated section, I used the bass line's on-beat 8ths up an octave, and for the off-beat 8ths I used the top two notes of the accompaniment chords. These are also flexible, I'm not confident with this decision
- I would appreciate someone re-checking those grace notes; the pitch bends in the original are really slight, and I can barely tell if the intervals are minor or major 2nds

Oh, and here are the originals:

 Feedback
  • Composer should just be Hirokazu Ando.
  • LH m1-15: All notes falling on beat 2 should be staccato, except in measure 4.
  • Many of the LH dyads/notes in measures 1-15 falling on beat 2.5 are inaccurate:
    • m1: F# should be moved up an octave.
    • m2: D# should be moved up an octave.
    • m3: Dyad should be an A#dim triad (A#, C#, E).
    • m6: The A# should be a G#-A# dyad.
    • m8: Dyad should have an A# added on top.
    • m11: I think the LH is actually fine, but there should be a triad in the RH on beat 2.5 consisting of A#, C# and D#.
    • m15: Fifth should be filled in with an A# and B#, and should be rolled.
  • m8 RH: The whole measure should be 8va, not just the last two notes.
  • m9 RH: The melody here should be A#, F#, C#. The same goes for measure 11 and measure 13.
  • m14 RH: Dyad on beat 1 should be a triad with notes G#, A# and C#.
  • m15: LH beat 1 should be an octave lower. In the RH, the D# on beat 3.5 should have an A# below it.
  • m16 RH: Melody note on beat 1 should have a grace note (F#).
  • m17 LH: Beat 4.5 dyad should have an E on the bottom instead of a D#.
  • m18 RH: All notes should be staccato. Also, I don't think the 8va needs to extend past the first note.
  • m19: Notes on beats 1 and 4.5 in the RH should be staccato, in the LH the note on beat 2 should be staccato.
  • m20: All notes should be staccato.
  • m21: All RH notes should be staccato. Also, it's really hard to hear, but there's a chord in the RH on beat 4.5—sounds like an F# major triad (F#, A#, C#). On beat 1 in the LH, you should just have a dotted half note instead of a half note tied to a quarter note.
  • m22: In the RH, the B# on beat 4.5 should have an F# below it.
  • m23: In the RH, both dyads should be rolled. All LH notes should be staccato.
  • I think mp would work better as a dynamic for this piece, but that's open to interpretation.

Quote from: LeviR.star on February 09, 2020, 12:34:28 PM- I had trouble deciphering the bass drum in m. 2, so I just made it a simple octave tremolo - yep that's fine
- the glissando on beat 4 of m. 3 is flexible, I really don't care what note it starts on - I think it'd be better off as a G (fifth leading back to the root)
- for the LH in the repeated section, I used the bass line's on-beat 8ths up an octave, and for the off-beat 8ths I used the top two notes of the accompaniment chords. These are also flexible, I'm not confident with this decision - seems fine to me
- I would appreciate someone re-checking those grace notes; the pitch bends in the original are really slight, and I can barely tell if the intervals are minor or major 2nds - looks good, but beat 3 of m. 13 is missing a D grace note before the F grace note
Other than the above, I think for m. 3 it'd be better to just have the chords strike twice rapidly in succession each time, if playability was the concern here. I think the 16th notes after the chord sound a little odd and with this speed is not unreasonable to just play the chord twice as fast as possible.

Quote from: Static on January 30, 2020, 08:03:37 PMNote that these are all checks for accuracy and playability; I'm leaving the original arrangement decisions intact.
I'm a bit skeptical about how a few of these chord inversions/jumps between sections sound, but overall it's a solid arrangement. I've adjusted a couple of notes - namely that I think the end of m. 31 and 37 RH are just notes descending down the C scale. I've moved this to approved.

They don't feel staccato in the sense that the others are to me... but I put tenuto staccatos on them as a compromise for you.

If you swap some of the more annoying ones to flats then you end up swapping between sharps and flats on different chords, and then the short melody lines don't make much sense and it's just a bit ugly.  I think it's better as is.

Gourmet Race
-Sometimes the bass contour doesn't quite line up with the original, like bar 26 for example where the bass goes down to the G twice, rather than up and then down.  I assume it's to avoid the consecutive Gs but worth mentioning anyway.
-I think that, once again, there are places that slurs could go a long way to help with clarity in the articulation, particularly in bars 49-50.

Teatime Joy
-The harp part just goes MIA in bars 2-3 for some reason?  Maybe you didn't hear it because it's kind of quiet?
-A missing D on the second beat of bar 12?  Although I don't hear it in bar 29 so it may just be my ears playing tricks on me.
-There's a Bn and Cn on beats 1 and 2 of bar 13 in the pizz strings part.  Same for bar 30.
-Harp part disappears again in bars 19 and 20.  And doesn't feature in 38 either.
-You lose the sus4 sound on beat 2 of bar 34 by omitting the lower Cn.  Maybe try putting one just below the melody Dn?  You did it before elsewhere so might work here too.

- The left hand goes pretty low in terms of ledger lines. Perhaps you could use a "Play L.H. one octave lower than written" at the beginning, say then "Play L.H. as written" at m49, then switch back to "Play L.H. one octave lower than written" at m61? Just a suggestion.
- m45-46 RH sounds like you could make each beat two 8th notes instead of one quarter note, with the second 8th note of each beat having only the upper two notes from the previous 8th note.
- m47 RH beat 2 sounds like E-C-E, with no A.
- Courtesy natural on m51 RH G.

I had considered this, but I didn't do it for some reason. On second listen it makes sense so I've added it.  I've implemented all your other feedback as well, I just need someone to hide the 8vas for me.

Sebastian - Cooking With Zess. T
Implemented most of the changes mastersuperfan suggested, with a few exceptions:
- In Finale, it might sound like there's a lot of contrast already in m10-15 LH, but I think for a performer, there's no harm in being very explicit about what you want a section to sound like; it's better than leaving information out. That's how I see it at least.
- I don't hear what you have for m15 at all, but I do hear both a E and G on beat 3.5, so I've added that.
I also made some extra changes:
- Slur at the end of m16 goes to RH in m17 instead of LH, and the notes on beat 1 of m17 are no longer doubled.
- Added bass notes to m16-19.
- Moved around some notes/accidentals so nothing touches.
- Added Intelligent Systems to copyright info.
- I chatted with msf about this, and we agree about all these changes except for m15 LH, so if a third person could take a look, that would be helpful. Once this is dealt with, I can approve.

-Sometimes the bass contour doesn't quite line up with the original, like bar 26 for example where the bass goes down to the G twice, rather than up and then down.  I assume it's to avoid the consecutive Gs but worth mentioning anyway.
-I think that, once again, there are places that slurs could go a long way to help with clarity in the articulation, particularly in bars 49-50.

-The harp part just goes MIA in bars 2-3 for some reason?  Maybe you didn't hear it because it's kind of quiet?
-A missing D on the second beat of bar 12?  Although I don't hear it in bar 29 so it may just be my ears playing tricks on me.
-There's a Bn and Cn on beats 1 and 2 of bar 13 in the pizz strings part.  Same for bar 30.
-Harp part disappears again in bars 19 and 20.  And doesn't feature in 38 either.
-You lose the sus4 sound on beat 2 of bar 34 by omitting the lower Cn.  Maybe try putting one just below the melody Dn?  You did it before elsewhere so might work here too.
I'll get to this tomorrow if I can!

Nice  :)
The key signature should be G major and I think you can fit in the little figure/melody at the end of the second measure.

I was writing up a post and decided to just post an updated file since I'm guessing you use MuseScore and I'm not sure how many of these changes are doable without full Finale:

[MUS] (https://www.dropbox.com/s/keh54pq6rgp6v25/Olive%20Ocean%20Revised.mus?dl=0) [XML] (https://www.dropbox.com/s/oqoh9e4xqsmd0bi/Olive%20Ocean%20Revised.mxl?dl=0)

Changes I made:
- The page 2 header and page number were a little outside the margin, so I dragged them down a bit. Also, the header font size was small for some reason, even though it said it was size 12, so I changed it to 14 and it looks normal now? Not sure what's going on there.
- In m1 LH, the second and third notes should be Ab and An, instead of An and Bb. Also, the second note should be written as an 8th instead of two tied 16ths.
- Your beaming was funky for some reason. All notes within the same beat should be beamed together, including 16ths beamed over rests (probably didn't work as intended because of importing), so I rebeamed everything.
- I added a missing bass note on beat 3.25 in m15-17 and m19-21. (I think it may or may not actually be a pitched percussion note, but either way, it's a pitched note that's there and I think it helps to make the bassline sound a little less empty in the sheet.)
- I made the "Stomp" and "Tap pen/pencil" directions italicized since that's how performance directions are typically expressed in Finale (although feel free to change it if you prefer it unitalicized/in larger text size).
- I edited the appearance of the courtesy key signature before the repeat by making the final barline invisible and shrinking the size of the last invisible measure.

Other suggestions beyond what I changed:
- I think you could try to fill in the rest of Layer 2 in the RH in m15-21, since that line doesn't stop actually halfway through the measure (it keeps going the whole way through).
- Tiny thing, but I would consider moving the "Composed by/Arranged by" info down a little bit since it's pretty close to the subtitle and there's a lot of space between it and the first system. Purely a matter of personal preference.

- This is a matter of personal arranging preference, but the intro to the original is pretty driving and the bassline by itself is a little bare—I would personally consider writing it like this (not actually playing it all with the left hand like I wrote it, but give the octaves to the LH and the higher notes to the RH), although of course it's up to you:

- Sounds like there are some harmonies you could add to the RH melody on m16 beat 2.5, m20 beat 2.5, and m24 beat 1.5 and 2.5 (last two notes).
- m11 RH beat 4.5 (last note), I'm not hearing a chord—only the F.
- For m12 RH, I think you could raise those two chords by an octave so that the contour from m11 to m12 goes upwards, and also so that it goes higher than m8 since it's building up to the next section.
- For m12 RH, I would also tie over beat 2.5 for another eighth note since it's held longer.
- I'm hearing the Bb in m19 RH beat 4 as an octave lower than you've written it.
- Was curious why you chose to make m13 mezzo forte since I don't think it's any softer than the previous section (if anything, I think it sounds fuller/more built up).

- For the missing harp parts - that was deliberate because it was so quiet. I felt that those notes on the piano stood out too much especially in m. 3 (and similar) where the G would play both on beat 1 and beat 2.
- For bar 12, I don't really hear a D on beat 2 and while it fits the chord I don't really hear a difference in texture here that a triad would make.
- I deliberately omitted those notes in 13 and 20 because they interfered with the descending right hand figure
- See above
- Yeah, that would work! I added the C back in m. 25 too (albeit an octave up).

Thanks for looking! Files updated with the last comment. Because of how sparse the song is I really just wanted to keep it to a very well-defined melody and accompaniment, which I feel like those omitted parts would distract from.

- Yeah, that was an attempt to avoid the G overlapping with the dyad on beat 2. Other places for the bass you might see the right note but at an adjusted octave to adjust for not overlapping with the dyads and not wanting the jumps to be too large. Let me know if you see anything that's off.
- I think for most of the C section it's pretty straightforward, but yeah those last two bars could use a bit of clarification. I've also added staccato-tenutos for beats 3-4 of m. 26; I think everywhere else in the B section is alright.

Files also updated with the above comment!

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 09, 2020, 01:52:06 AM- I would specify "L.H." in the "play one octave lower than written" note.
- The consecutive 16ths in the LH in m1-3 are really hard to play with the thumb. I would suggest changing those into single 8th notes since it shouldn't sound that different anyway.
- I think a lot of the eighth notes in the melody (m5-19) could use staccatos.
- I'm also hearing an F and an A (in addition to the D, which is the highest note) on beat 3 of m30 RH. (also, a D on the final beat)
Fixed.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 09, 2020, 01:52:06 AM- m3-4 in the RH looks pretty difficult to play, and while I imagine the notes are there, that's not really the line I hear most on a first listen to the original. Is there an easier/more prominent melody to include there instead?
This monstrosity is the full melody line in m1-4:

I tried condensing it as much as I could, but it's not easy. If you have any other suggestions after looking at this, I'll try them out.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 09, 2020, 01:52:06 AM- m5, m8, m11, m13, and m16 all have a 16th-note triplet instead of two 16th notes on beat 1.5. This is also true of m17 and m19, but it's much harder to play a repeated dyad that fast (with a single note you can use different fingers in rapid succession), so I would only make the change in the aforementioned measures.
Maybe, but I don't think most pianists would be able to play it (myself included). I feel like it's more accessible this way.

I also lowered the R.H. in m1-4 down an octave to better fit the original.

Quote from: Static on February 08, 2020, 09:14:56 PM- m20: That grace note slur might look better flipped upwards instead.
I like it the way it is now, although I adjusted the curve a bit

Quote from: Static on February 08, 2020, 09:14:56 PM- m25, 27 RH: Any reason you went with 32nds instead of grace notes? Either is fine, I'm just wondering. The B# in m27 would probably be better written as a C in this case. The main reason is to match m25 but there's another harmonic line of reasoning I was thinking about. It's kind of weird bc there are so few notes here, but if you think of the dyads in the LH as being part of parallel dominant 7th chords, then the chord here is a G7, and B# isn't a part of that chord/scale (even if the key is something different, I think its better to pick accidentals based on the current chord or scale, but it depends) Sorry, this is kind of a lot to say for one tiny little thing, so if you have any questions let me know.
No, this makes sense. Thanks for your input! About the grace notes, I wanted it to be more precise but then there wouldn't be much difference between those and 32nd notes anyways if at all. Grace notes are easier to read too (and it's more consistent with the rest of the arrangement), so I changed it

What you fixed looks good, but you missed a couple bass notes:
- m18 LH: Bns should be Bs
- m55 LH beat 4: Ab should be An

Those chords in m1-4 sound a little off, so I listened back, and here's what I got:
- m1: This chord is an Em7 chord (E-G-B-D), with the E as the bass note.
- m2: These chords are Eb7 chords (Eb-G-Bb-Db), with the Eb as the bass note.
- m3: This chord is a Dm7 chord (D-F-A-C), with the D as the bass note.
- m4: This chord is a G7 chord (G-B-D-F), with the G as the bass note.
I think making these adjustments will make this section sound more rich and lively.

In addition, I would suggest making the rolled chord in m28 a Bb major chord instead. Even though the chimes in the original play a G chord, it sounds out-of-place on piano because of the tonal differences between the two instruments.

If you want some ideas or help for those harmonies in 45-52, let me know.

Just make the 2 8th rests in m25 RH a quarter rest, and the 3 8th rests in m27 RH a dotted quarter rest, and this one's all set. Everything else looks great!

After listening to your arrangement and the original, I'm in agreement with mastersuperfan about these points:

- I'm hearing the Bb in m19 RH beat 4 as an octave lower than you've written it.
I definitely see why you've moved the melody in Bars 5-8 up an octave from the original (it would collide nastily with the accompaniment otherwise), but I'd like a nod in your Bars 9-12 towards the melody moving up an octave between Bars 5-8 and Bars 9-12 in the original. I was primarily thinking a piu forte in Bar 9 to substitute for what would otherwise be a move an octave up.

If you're prone, I'm hearing additional notes in the brass in the original instead of eighth rests in the RH of Bars 21 and 23 - and they're both the D above Middle C. I'm also hearing m24 beat 1.5 and 2.5 (last two notes) at an octave above what you've written there, although I can also see why you opted not to jump them up an octave.

Working Dough (Rhythm Heaven Fever) - Latios212
- Tempo should be 140 BPM instead of 150.
- m17 RH beat 4 should be B# instead of G#.
- m58 LH beats 1-2 should have the same rhythm as the RH.
- There's an accented bass note on the very last beat.
- Was wondering why the last four notes in m40 LH don't also have articulations on them.
- You might consider raising beat 4 of m4 RH an octave, since it's pretty high in the original and markedly low here. (I would also suggest putting an accent on it, instead of just a tenuto.) You might also consider adding the following notes (but since they're softer than the notes around it I can understand if you don't want to):
Spoiler
(https://i.imgur.com/wRS3IS7.png)
[close]
- I was wondering why you omitted all the high orchestral hits (e.g. where you could double the melody an octave higher) in places like the last two notes of m24, last note in m28, etc. While I can understand if you want to preserve the low octave of the main melody in places like m36, m53-56, and m60, I think it would be nice to add them in other places. In particular, I don't see any reason not to have them on m52 beat 4 and and m64 beat 4, where you don't have anything else going on there anyway. (At the very least, if not adding the hits, I would suggest adding accents to these notes.)
- From what I can tell, it seems like you're generally using the bass clef whenever the melody goes down to F or lower. However, I think that m20 and m36 (which are very similar) should be in the same clef for consistency's sake. On second look, though, you kept m24 in treble clef—was that intentional, or is there a different rule/pattern you're going for?


Fantastical Feast (Fire Emblem Fates) - Libera
Great sheet of a very interesting (and complicated) track (although some parts hurt my wrists just looking at it, lol). The only thing I was wondering about is whether you had considered writing m27-32 in three 3/4-bar phrases. Though I can't hear a clear subdivision of beats either way, I was thinking it might subdivide the right hand better in m27-28 and the left hand better in m31-32, and it also is more continuous with the rest of the sheet and m33 onwards. The way you have it now also makes sense, though, since it's continuous with the 4/4 in m25-26 and splits everything into 2-bar phrases. It's up to you and how you hear it/want it to be expressed, but I just wanted to offer the possibility.

Also I don't play much piano so you probably know more than I do here, but I'm used to seeing pedal markings in the same system vertically aligned? i.e. m13 and m21 look kind of weird to me since one pedal marking is higher than the other, but this might be a perfectly acceptable way of notation that I just haven't seen before.


Spinach Rag (Final Fantasy VI) - Static
Cool track, very accurate sheet, notes seem good. Just a few things:
- The slur is touching the flat in m28.
- I would put a courtesy natural on the E in m8 and m16 RH.
- You use A# in m25 and Bb in m49. Not sure if there's an actual difference in chord progression here (if there is, keep it as is) or if it might be better to make it consistent between the two. Regardless, I would also suggest a courtesy natural on the A in m26 LH.
EDIT: Also the BPM should be 99 instead of 100 lol. I know some people are into rounding tempos to metronome numbers but I personally like to put the exact number since they can just round it to the closest one if their metronome doesn't have it. Up to you.

Here's a another update. All right, so I got the left hand chords and the 45-52 stuff done as far as I can tell. The harmony that changes from the fourth count of 50 seems to only last for a few notes, but not for the rest of the section, I could be mishearing it though, it's really hard to tell in the source for me, pitched up or not.

- Parentheses in the wrong octave for the G on m13/17 RH beat 4?
- In m19 RH, beat 3 sounds like a held dotted quarter and beat 4 sounds staccato to me.
- On m21/m25 RH beat 4, I'm hearing an E in addition to the F and C.
- You might consider making the second half of m12 staccato, though I understand if it's written this way to make more sense pianistically.

Big fan of this arrangement, but I have a few issues that mostly stem from spacing. m16 has the 16th note getting nearly the same space as the surrounding 8th notes, which isn't great. I see that you did it to preserve the hypermeter, but it still rubs me the wrong way. Keep it if you like. The other issue is one that I'm a bit more adamant about. The system of m25 is just a mess. The notes need room to breathe and sticking to the hypermeter won't let that happen. Pulling the 4th measure down to the next system is one option that works reasonably well. The other option is to pull down m16 and respace the  measures from there, so you end up with 4 systems on page 2. Up to you whatever you choose, but I don't think that leaving that system alone is a good idea.

I'm not picking on your sheets, you just arranged songs I know well.

I can see why you left out some of the 2nd layer notes for payability in  parts, but I think adding them on the last meat of m17 would enhance it. Unless, of course, the tone you're going for is never playing more than the the one note per measure.

I am physically unable to find any other issues. Good job.

Quote from: Static on February 08, 2020, 09:14:56 PM- The "Dim.Dream" part of the title shouldn't have a space between "Dim." and "Dream".
- m55 RH: Courtesy natural for the An perhaps?
- m60-61: Ending numbers are a bit too close to the notes for my liking.
- m66: mf is touching barline.
- Make sure you specify that you want the LH 8vb to end after m97.

- Developer should be "ZUN Soft", along with publisher Amusement Makers (this applies to all the PC-98 Touhou games btw).
That is a horrible use of title punctuation.

Some more feedback, this time for Sweet Sweet Canyon:

Sweet Sweet Canyon (Mario Kart 8) - NineLives
Have you considered using cut time with half note = 124 instead? 248 is really fast and, barring the fact that I only perceive "the beat" twice per measure, lots of measures can't even go up to 248 BPM. I'm thinking cut time might be more reasonable here.

I'm also a little concerned with playability in some parts, especially where you have fast consecutive octaves and/or jumps. One notable case is m32 and m36, which I give alternatives to below, but other than that, my worry is in places with consecutive eighth-note octaves like m22, m24, m25, etc. In particular, going from an "and" to a beat (which requires a lot of speed given the swing) could be very hard. In the RH, on the second note of m22, last note of m22, second note of m24, last note of m24, second note of m25, etc. etc. I would consider omitting the lower note entirely (since you don't need octaves on every note, especially when it's not on the beat and surrounded by other octaves), or simply putting parentheses around the lower note to indicate that they're optional.

I'm hearing some differences in the bassline compared to what Static said:
- I'm not hearing the high G in m8 LH beat 2 or the B at the end of m8 LH; beat 2 just sounds like an eighth rest and I would make beat 4 a quarter note.
- Similarly, beat 4 of m12 LH also sounds like just a quarter note to me.
- Instead of the G and D at the end of m24 LH, I hear a rest for beat 3 and a quarter note G for beat 4.
- For m26, I hear beat 1 LH (G) an octave higher.
- For m27, I think it would be better just to remove the grace note and raise the G back up an octave. What happens here, and also multiple times in m26, is that the bass starts on the high note and then slides down. When I listen to it at full speed, however, I mainly hear just the high note, which also follows the ascending line of the bass better, so I would just use that note. (Since this happens multiple times in m26 too, I think it would be impractical to notate all instances with consecutive octave-jump grace notes.)
- m36 LH beat 3 sounds like it's tied to the first quarter note of beat 4.
- I hear the G on m44 beat 1 an octave up. (The downward slide happens again here, but I personally think just the high note is best, especially since that's what the F# in m43 leads to.)

Other note things:
- There are some harmonies you could add to the RH in m3-4 like so:
(https://i.imgur.com/6OThYXi.png)
- The bottom note of the dyad on beat 2 of m11 RH should be an A, not a G.
- Also in m11 RH, I would strongly suggest putting the accordion(?) part on top of beats 3 (note = C) and 4 (note = D).
- You might consider putting a grace note on the first note of m14 RH.
- Not sure about the tenuto in m17... tenutos are generally pretty ambiguous and it's the only one you use in the whole sheet so it's a bit out of place. Perhaps a two-note slur instead?
- For the sake of playability, I would strongly suggest removing the first note (G) in Layer 2 of m19 so that they don't have to make that massive jump in 0.08 seconds (1/3rd of a beat at 248 BPM). I don't think it adds that much since the violin line is harder to hear under the melody, especially when it first enters.
- m20 Layer 1 should look like this:
(https://i.imgur.com/n5sDq6M.png)
- I think it would be nice to have the last melody note in m28 RH, but obviously the rolled chord gets in the way. This is completely your choice, but if you want to be a bit more liberal with your arrangement, you could have the last melody note on beat 2.5 there and then delay the rolled chord until beat 4.
- m29 melody should be D-Db-C-Cb, not D-C-Cb-B. Also, there's a harmony of Bb-Bbb-(nothing on the third note)-Ab under the top voice. I would strongly suggest including this and omitting the octaves on the second and third triplet notes because those consecutive octaves are very hard to play that fast. Here's a picture of the revision I'm suggesting:
(https://i.imgur.com/OYOENza.png)
- Similarly, I would do something like this for m36 (although there seem to be fewer harmonies here);
(https://i.imgur.com/btvX6Tk.png)
- I would also suggest overlapping the same note in Layer 1 and Layer 2 on m43 RH beat 3 to make it clear to the pianist what the Layer 2 line is actually doing, even if it doesn't necessarily change the way it's played:
(https://i.imgur.com/5flwBlC.png)
- I actually wonder if the half note on m48 RH beat 1 would be clearer if it weren't offset, even if that causes it to clash with Layer 1 a bit more. Not sure though.

There are also lots of places where courtesy accidentals would be really nice, including but not limited to:
- Beat 2 (E natural) of m7, m11, m19, m59 LH.
- Beat 3 (G natural) of m35 LH.
- Beat 4 (A natural) of m55 LH.

Formatting things:
- Move the 8va across m25-28 up so it's not clashing with the notes in m25.
- Also move the 8va up and have it start further to the left in m44, so it's completely over the chord.
- Could you move m17-20 down so that the slur isn't getting really close to the system above? Either that or delete the slur entirely since I'm not sure it adds a ton.
- Also move the tempo marking a little higher.
- Maybe move the 8va marking in m49-52 up by like, a smidge.
- Finally, your arpeggio signs go a little high above the top note of the chord in m4 and m44; I'd shorten the top a little bit.

I did try both of those before, but it messed up with the swing in the playback, so I changed it to 4/4 and 248. However, I just figured out how to get the tempo you wanted to work. Is there a way I can make the key signature cut time but still have the original 4/4 in playback? Other than that, I think I got all else done.

The easiest way to make that change is to right-click on the measure and go to Edit Time Signature > More Options > Use a Different Time Signature for Display and use 4/4 as the underlying time signature with cut time as the one being displayed.

Looks good. I went through all of msf's suggestions they check out so yeah. I would add a whole note C# to m50 to bring out the A major harmony there (right now it's ambiguous). 4/4 with a fast tempo is typical in many big band swing charts, but cut time is fine too, just follow msf's directions to make that happen. Once that's done I can approve...

Cool track, very accurate sheet, notes seem good. Just a few things:
- The slur is touching the flat in m28.
- I would put a courtesy natural on the E in m8 and m16 RH.
- You use A# in m25 and Bb in m49. Not sure if there's an actual difference in chord progression here (if there is, keep it as is) or if it might be better to make it consistent between the two. Regardless, I would also suggest a courtesy natural on the A in m26 LH.
EDIT: Also the BPM should be 99 instead of 100 lol. I know some people are into rounding tempos to metronome numbers but I personally like to put the exact number since they can just round it to the closest one if their metronome doesn't have it. Up to you.
I've fixed all the things.

Here's a link to the folders updated with cut time. (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9cw29j3nblvzjl9/AAB3MGmc5dFtwj9LHuCNvh4ba?dl=0) I also added the Bbb in m32 since it seemed to have been converted to a An.

A few last things from me...
- The B on the bottom of beat 1.5 in m10 RH—I get that it's there in the original, but I'm not sure how well it translates to piano. You may or may not consider removing it if you like.
- yikes I didn't realize raising the 8va would make it so high everywhere from m45-end. I take back what I said before... it looks better lower. (Though—are you able to adjust the height of 8va in individual systems? It seems like the whole 8va has been raised uniformly.)
- A courtesy natural on the A on m15 RH beat 4 would be nice since the LH is playing Ab.

All right, there are some more note and formatting things that I missed earlier, plus some things that Latios noticed, so here are the actual last few things from me before this is ready.

Here are files with the changes (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9cw29j3nblvzjl9/AAB3MGmc5dFtwj9LHuCNvh4ba?dl=0) since I was already messing around with it myself in Finale.

Things that were changed:

- Re-displayed the Layer 2 rests in m12 for clarity (without the rests showing, it's not super clear that there are two layers in the first place).
- Deleted the staccato on beat 4 RH of m26 since that note sounds held to me.
- Changed m33 to reflect some additional higher notes that are there. If you would like to keep the contour of the violin line, you can delete the high B and move the G an octave down, although I do think that it translates nicely from the previous measure. It's your call.
- Added some harmonies in m36 RH that were missed before.
- So actually I misunderstood what was happening in m43 with the two layers. Some of the notes in the staccato voice were off so I edited those. I also added a slur to the melody on beat 4 to distinguish it from the staccato'd notes and (after discussing it with Latios) the dotted line indicating the melody. You have full discretion on whether or not you want to keep the slur and/or the dotted line, or if there's some other way you want to notate the two voices (it's a weird measure to notate cleanly).
- Flipped the Layer 1 chord down in m44 and adjusted the ties accordingly, since Layer 2 isn't in the way. Also flipped some of the Layer 1 notes in m45-46 and m49 and adjusted articulations accordingly.
- Removed the C# in m50 RH Layer 2 since it's actually still holding the E from m49 in the original. You could consider re-articulating the E in m50 but I decided against it while editing since it sounded a little weird to have E play twice consecutively on beat 1. (And I don't think there's enough visual space to tie m49 over to m50...)
- Edited the bottom notes of the dyads in m50-m51 since they were a bit off compared to the original.

Other than that, the only comment I have to make is regarding the LH in the last measure. From what I can tell, the original only has the bottom note (low G). If you want to be transcriptionally very accurate to the original, you could just change it to that. However, if this is an intentional stylistic choice, it works well and you're absolutely free to keep it as is. Just wanted to double-check with you on this.

Give all of these changes and the new file a once-over, make any more edits/changes if you want, and after that everything should be good!

Notes look great!
- The last few measures would be better in bass clef for the left hand.
- Spacing between systems could be adjusted just a bit to use up the space a bit more evenly.
I made those couple of minor edits for you, so accepting!

"Frozen Pizza and Eggs (Shane's Theme)" - Code_Name_aGeek
- Could we include the dyads in the left hand? It would be a pretty simple addition to what we currently have and would add a bit more color without making it more difficult. In measures 1-2 C#s beneath the F#s, in m. 3-4 B's beneath the E's, in m. 5-6 A's beneath the C#'s, etc.
- Some of your RH notes are flipped in m. 9/17.

Spinach Rag (Final Fantasy VI) - Static

- m32 RH beat 2 should just be a quarter note, not two eighth notes.
- Have you considered notating the LH in m1-4 and m51-52 in treble clef? For that matter, you might consider putting the whole thing in treble clef—or if not all of it, then more of it, since there are many places throughout (esp on the first page) where the LH uses a lot of ledger lines. Also I think it would provide better visual information on how close the two hands are to each other at any given point.
- Completely subjective, but I'm not sure that the dynamics difference between m1-20 and m20 onwards is equal to two dynamic levels. IMO I think it's only a one-level difference, but it doesn't matter much either way.

Otherwise, I approve.


Let's Go Down the Wine River (Super Mario RPG) - Static

- tempo is actually 127 BPM lol
- m8 LH beat 1 sounds like it should be a high E.
- m18 and m26 RH beat 4 Layer 1 should be an F, not a G.
- There you harmonies you could add to beats 2-4 in the RH of m20, m28, and m32. I'm hearing Eb's under all three notes in m32, and in m20/28, I'm hearing Eb's under beats 2-3 and an Eb and/or a C under beat 4.
- The RH harmonies also change with the eighth notes in m29 and m30. It might make sense to simplify or omit some of the harmonies in m30 for playability, but I don't see any reason not to include the ones on beat 4.5 of m29.
- Beats 2 and 4 in each measure in the LH all sound like at least triads to me. You might consider adding another note on top (e.g. add an Ab on top in m1, a G on top in m2, etc.) but it makes sense if you left them out if you thought the sound would be too muddy in a low register.
- For m8, does the crescendo mean to get louder for only that one measure and then go back to mezzo forte in m9? You have mezzo forte in both m1 and m9 so I just wanted to double check.

Discussed Choco Island and Vanilla Lake (Beta) with Static and made the following edits:

Choco Island:
- Flattened the slur in m18 and shifted some chord marking positions so that they weren't too close to other things or poking into the previous measure.

Vanilla Lake (Beta):
- Changed the G at the end of m7 LH to an F#.
- Changed the quarter rest in m7 RH into two eighth rests.
- Added courtesy accidentals in m3, m5, m13, and m14.
- changed tempo from 124 to 123 lol

I also noticed that but assumed it was an intentional decision since the LH and RH would be pretty far apart if it were lowered. @NineLives?


More feedback (not really sure why I did five of Levi's in a row... I think it was just because they were easier to check):

Radish Ruins (Kirby & The Amazing Mirror) - LeviR.star
Good sheet, notes generally check out. A few comments from me...
- tempo should be 137 BPM instead of 138 lol (getting a strange sense of déjà vu)
- The tempo marking is kind of high up; it might look better if you brought it down just a smidge.
- I'm not sure about the spacing in this sheet. The systems are reaaally far apart on the first page and I think it would look better closer together. Try this distribution (MUSX file) (https://www.dropbox.com/s/5uccxc7khx48gex/Kirby%20%26%20The%20Amazing%20Mirror%20-%20Radish%20Ruins.musx?dl=0)—after the first two systems, I grouped the measures by threes, which puts the repeat bar right at the end of the first page. This has the added benefit of, well, not making them go back a page when they go through the repeat.
- I didn't fiddle with the spacing on the second page, but any two-bar phrases might be a bit too stretched compared to three-bar phrases. You might consider putting measures into three bars phrases, and then for the last remaining measure, just shorten the system so it's spaced comparably. If you don't like having a system that short, you can work out whatever other organization you think is good.
- In the LH, beat of m2, m4, m8, and m12 sound just like two eighths instead of an eighth-note triplet.
- In the RH of m7-10, I imagine you omitted the harmonies on the 16th notes for playability's sake, but I think you could probably add them to the first 16th note of every pair. I think it would only become unreasonably difficult if you made them play fast dyads on all three notes in a row.
- Purely stylistic choice: Personally, I would consider inverting the dyads in the RH in m15-22. In the original, the melody (the lower voice) obviously stands out more than the higher harmonies above it, but it gets obscured here in the sheet because the high notes become so much more prominent. I think this is a case where you could sacrifice a bit of transcriptional accuracy for the sake of sticking to the spirit of the original theme, but it's your call.
[close]

Goal Game (Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards) - LeviR.star
- I would specify "both hands"—i.e. "Play both hands one octave higher than written"
- I would also capitalize the P in play... (though I guess you don't have to)
- Finally, I would move that note more to the right and a little up, to be closer to the staves. You might even consider placing it above the staves, to the right of the tempo marking. Somewhere where they'll see it most easily. It doesn't make a huge difference though so do with it what you will.
[close]

Yogurt Yard Map (Kirby's Adventure) - LeviR.star
- m4 LH beat 3.5 (C) sounds like just a single 8th note to me.
- The same thing I said for Radish Ruins goes for the 16th note harmonies here in m4. In fact, since these are staccato notes (and the tempo is not as fast), I don't think it would be unrealistic to just put the harmonies on every 16th note, actually.
[close]

Dreaming of Food (Kirby Super Star) - LeviR.star
- That is a lot of space between systems. I don't think you need to go to such lengths just to fill the page... too many empty space in between is more unsightly than empty space at the bottom IMO.
- Regarding grace notes... I've now taken on Libera's view that the slur should be oriented for the big note, not for the grace notes. Thus, you might consider manually flipping the slur in m8-9 so that it's on top. Still, this is a matter of preference, so you can make the change or not.
- You may or may not consider shortening the length of the last system since those two measures are pretty stretched out as they are.
[close]

Crash! Gourmet Race (Kirby Super Star) - LeviR.star
- tempo should be 169 instead of 170 (lol I'm doing this a lot... it's really close though, it's like 169.35)
- yikes that is a lot of ledger lines but I can see why it's not convenient to use an 8va/15ma to get rid of them so it's fine
- Same thing about grace notes that I mentioned in Dreaming for Food, if you really want to take the effort to manually adjust all the slurs.
- That is still a lot of empty space between systems on page 2... and it's coming at the expense of adequate space between staves in m18-19. I would definitely cut the spacing down a notch. Also, is it just me, or is the vertical distance between the 3rd and 4th systems on page 1 a little greater than the distance between the 2nd and 3rd systems? It's bothering me a little...

Quote from: Latios212 on February 08, 2020, 06:16:23 PM- I'm not sure the grace notes on page 2 really work? They distract from the smoothness of the melody quite a bit and I don't really hear them in the original.
- For the main left hand pattern in m. 29-42 I'd consider putting beat 1 down an octave and seeing how that sounds to you. It would bring out the deeper bass tones in the original without making the entire pattern too bassy.
- I heard the grace notes from the ocarina in the high register, but I agree that the notes don't sound as smooth on piano.
- Change the pattern to arpeggios.

  • Many of the LH dyads/notes in measures 1-15 falling on beat 2.5 are inaccurate:
    • m6: The A# should be a G#-A# dyad.
    • m8: Dyad should have an A# added on top.
    • m11: I think the LH is actually fine, but there should be a triad in the RH on beat 2.5 consisting of A#, C# and D#.
  • m14 RH: Dyad on beat 1 should be a triad with notes G#, A# and C#.
  • m16 RH: Melody note on beat 1 should have a grace note (F#).
  • m21: Also, it's really hard to hear, but there's a chord in the RH on beat 4.5—sounds like an F# major triad (F#, A#, C#).
  • m22: In the RH, the B# on beat 4.5 should have an F# below it.
  • I think mp would work better as a dynamic for this piece, but that's open to interpretation.
- I personally could not hear these notes, or heard these differently. Additional feedback will be appreciated.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 10, 2020, 05:16:32 PMI was writing up a post and decided to just post an updated file since I'm guessing you use MuseScore and I'm not sure how many of these changes are doable without full Finale:
- Thanks for the edit and I indeed mainly used MuseScore for arranging and Finale Notepad to generate .mus files. Accepting all changes made.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 10, 2020, 05:16:32 PM[MUS] (https://www.dropbox.com/s/keh54pq6rgp6v25/Olive%20Ocean%20Revised.mus?dl=0) [XML] (https://www.dropbox.com/s/oqoh9e4xqsmd0bi/Olive%20Ocean%20Revised.mxl?dl=0)
- The placement of the articulations in the .mxl file was messed up when imported to Notepad. I guess this may be a limitation of Notepad. The updated file is modified from the .mus file.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 10, 2020, 05:16:32 PMOther suggestions beyond what I changed:
- I think you could try to fill in the rest of Layer 2 in the RH in m15-21, since that line doesn't stop actually halfway through the measure (it keeps going the whole way through).
- Tiny thing, but I would consider moving the "Composed by/Arranged by" info down a little bit since it's pretty close to the subtitle and there's a lot of space between it and the first system. Purely a matter of personal preference.

- Added notes to the measures, but honestly these were barely noticeable to me, so I might interpret them incorrectly. 
- Location adjusted

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 14, 2020, 05:33:24 PMOther than that, the only comment I have to make is regarding the LH in the last measure. From what I can tell, the original only has the bottom note (low G). If you want to be transcriptionally very accurate to the original, you could just change it to that. However, if this is an intentional stylistic choice, it works well and you're absolutely free to keep it as is. Just wanted to double-check with you on this.
I think I'll take the G off. Also, I don't know if it's just PrintMusic, but the staccatos seem to close in on the notes on the MUS & MUSX files you send. It's no biggie 'cause they're easy to replace, but I just thought it was weird. Aside from that, here's the current sheet once more: "Sweet Sweet Canyon" MUSX (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ondhtcwtdcb2llz/Mario%20Kart%208%20-%20Sweet%20Sweet%20Canyon.musx?dl=0)

- alright, listen: the last time we had this argument, someone pointed out that it was better to have the BPM on a standard metronome marking if possible. With 60 tempo taps, I ended with an average BPM of 137.53, and rounded up accordingly (a number which a traditional metronome can match up to). Just understand, this is nothing personal
- can do
- I like that distribution; moved it to look like yours
- done
- thanks for double-checking that, I also added staccatos
- good enough for me; also made this change in m. 13 - 14
- you know, I had a feeling something was off in that section. I wasn't sure if you guys would approve of me inverting those dyads, but now that I've got permission, I'll be happy to

- Yeah that's because I'm using Finale v26 which is buggy... kudos for replacing the articulations, but now the staccatos I manually positioned in m45-49 are in the wrong places. Either you can re-position the Layer 1 staccatos to be near the noteheads yourself, or you can just leave them for now and we'll handle them later.
- For the last measure, I meant that the low G was the only thing I was hearing, so I would either keep the entire chord including the G, or only keep the low G.
- Regarding what Radiak said:

(https://i.imgur.com/90JQI2f.png)
(That said, if you like the full chords, you can keep them since either way sounds just fine.)
- Radiak is also right in that, in the original, the bassline is an octave lower (starting from m5). Your call whether or not you want to lower the LH accordingly or keep it as is.

- I got an average BPM of 137.25 with 320 tempo taps. :P Personally the way I see it is that it's better to be more exact because many metronomes can do exact BPMs, and for those that can't, you can just round to the nearest marking. Either way is fine though.
- Was also just curious why you chose to put octaves on LH beat 1 for every other measure in m15-22, since it doesn't sound like something that was taken directly from the original.

Otherwise, I like.

Goal Game (Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards) - LeviR.star
- It sounds like there's also a harmony note on the second eighth note of each beat (i.e. when the RH dips down). You could make the LH play these notes (with the same up-down-up contour as the RH), though I'm guessing they were cut for playability? Still, since there are only two voices and this track is short, I don't think it would be too hard at all.

- I'm hearing some additional notes in m5-6 LH:
(https://i.imgur.com/iiYE42t.png)
I don't think playability is a big concern if you add in these extra notes, although I might consider removing the low F on beats 1/3.

- The n in m17 seems to have been shifted down from where it was before.

Olive Ocean (Kirby & The Amazing Mirror) - Rubikium
New notes sound spot-on, everything sounds great! And yeah, the wonky articulations are because of Finale v26... I can tell that Finale v26 screwed up the articulations in the files I sent to you since your PDF is also messed up. Ignore them for now and we'll handle them in the end (unless you want to re-assign all of them yourself, lol). (I put a PDF in the folder below so you can see how it's supposed to look.)

Here are some files revised once more: Olive Ocean Revised (2/15/20) (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wga9d65pjgbwtj7/AAC0XUqaU6FBkDDYFoQAArN0a?dl=0)

Just a few formatting/playback fixes I made:
- Removed the redundant accidental on Ebb on m10 beat 3.
- Moved rests onto the staff in m10 and m15-18 since the other layer wasn't in the way.
- De-italicized the "Tap pen/pencil" and "Stomp" since I think those should actually be classified as technique directions which aren't italicized by default in Finale. My bad.
- Flipped the "stomp" notes downward.
- Added invisible articulations to Layer 1 in m13-14 to get rid of wonky playback (now the invisible Layer 2 is the only one that plays), though I'm not sure if playback was already how you intended it beforehand. Not that playback is a big deal, but let me know if there's some specific way you want it to playback (e.g. one of us can use full Finale to add hidden percussion staves).
- Changed the invisible measure at the end from a quarter rest to a hundred twenty-eighth rest (or a semihemidemisemiquaver, as Libera would call it) so that it doesn't affect playback.

One question I had was about Layer 2 from m15-21. It sounds like you moved the notes on beats 2.75 and 3.25 of each measure down an octave compared to the original. Was this to avoid it overlapping with Layer 1? Just wanted to double-check since I think it would be okay (but by no means necessary—do it how you want) to bring those notes up even if the layers overlap.

Additionally, you might consider raising the RH in m12 and/or m22 since it feels like the melody is sort of "ascending" up to that part as it builds up. If you wanted, you could also double the Db's/Eb's by an octave in the RH in m12/22 for extra emphasis.

Let me know if you have confusions about any of these changes and/or other questions. Once you're good with everything and decide whether or not to consider the other suggestions, I think that'll be it from me.

- m32 RH beat 2 should just be a quarter note, not two eighth notes.
- Have you considered notating the LH in m1-4 and m51-52 in treble clef? For that matter, you might consider putting the whole thing in treble clef—or if not all of it, then more of it, since there are many places throughout (esp on the first page) where the LH uses a lot of ledger lines. Also I think it would provide better visual information on how close the two hands are to each other at any given point.
- Completely subjective, but I'm not sure that the dynamics difference between m1-20 and m20 onwards is equal to two dynamic levels. IMO I think it's only a one-level difference, but it doesn't matter much either way.
- Done.
- m1-4 doesn't go any higher than other bass clef parts of the song, and m51-52 is a bit short of a section and not incredibly high enough imo to warrant a clef change there. I usually prefer to switch clefs when I go above ~4 ledger lines, so I don't think ledger lines are that big of an issue on this piece. Maybe that's just my trombone player instincts...
- I meant to have a mf at m5 but forgot to add it, so I added it.

- tempo is actually 127 BPM lol
- m8 LH beat 1 sounds like it should be a high E.
- m18 and m26 RH beat 4 Layer 1 should be an F, not a G.
- There you harmonies you could add to beats 2-4 in the RH of m20, m28, and m32. I'm hearing Eb's under all three notes in m32, and in m20/28, I'm hearing Eb's under beats 2-3 and an Eb and/or a C under beat 4.
- The RH harmonies also change with the eighth notes in m29 and m30. It might make sense to simplify or omit some of the harmonies in m30 for playability, but I don't see any reason not to include the ones on beat 4.5 of m29.
- Beats 2 and 4 in each measure in the LH all sound like at least triads to me. You might consider adding another note on top (e.g. add an Ab on top in m1, a G on top in m2, etc.) but it makes sense if you left them out if you thought the sound would be too muddy in a low register.
- For m8, does the crescendo mean to get louder for only that one measure and then go back to mezzo forte in m9? You have mezzo forte in both m1 and m9 so I just wanted to double check.
- Done.
- Done.
- Done.
- I would rather keep that part simple. In m20/28, it's a bit tricky to play dyads underneath a held note like that. For m32, you would have to move your hand farther down to get extra notes underneath. A lot of times my sheets can be pretty tough, but sometimes I would prefer to just have the bare essentials.
- I would prefer not to do this stuff for the same reasons as above. Playing dyad 8th notes at this speed is tough, especially when the hand is moving positions there and the bottom note would be repeated. I think what I have written is very comfortable to play, but keeps the feel of the original and has the same harmonies, even if I moved around the notes a bit.
- I would definitely prefer not to do this, the LH is already quite challenging at this tempo. Lots of big jumps.
- Yes. A crescendo doesn't have to always go to a louder dynamic. It just means that, while the crescendo is there, get louder.

I typically like to use 8va's/8vb's when notes exceed three ledger lines, especially when it's upper ledger lines in the bass clef (which I am not very used to reading). However, it's a decision that you've clearly thought about, so I'll defer to your judgment on this one. Approved.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 15, 2020, 12:12:24 PMNow the staccatos I manually positioned in m45-49 are in the wrong places. Either you can re-position the Layer 1 staccatos to be near the noteheads yourself, or you can just leave them for now and we'll handle them later.
- For the last measure, I meant that the low G was the only thing I was hearing, so I would either keep the entire chord including the G, or only keep the low G.
- Regarding what Radiak said:- I checked out the first four measures and Radiak is right (except for the 1st measure where it's the 3rd, not the 5th, that's missing):
(That said, if you like the full chords, you can keep them since either way sounds just fine.)
- Radiak is also right in that, in the original, the bassline is an octave lower (starting from m5). Your call whether or not you want to lower the LH accordingly or keep it as is.
All right. The first few measures have the chords suggested and the LH of the last measure has the same chord as the fourth measure, and I'll keep the bassline as is. "Sweet Sweet Canyon" MUSX (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ondhtcwtdcb2llz/Mario%20Kart%208%20-%20Sweet%20Sweet%20Canyon.musx?dl=0)

Looks great! I'll have another updater handle the staccatos and then this will have my approval.

One last tiny question: Should there be staccatos on RH beat 1 of m6, m10, and m22, or were those omitted intentionally?

Yeah. Those were intentional. The notes didn't sound short when I listened to them originally.

Sweet Sweet Canyon (Mario Kart 8) - Nine Lives
Latios was able to re-position the staccatos in m45-49 so that's good now. He also pointed out the beamed eighths on m14 RH beats 1.5-2 and m16 RH beats 3.5-4, which look weird beamed together because the first note in the pair is the swung eighth while the second one is the emphasized note. In both cases, the second note has been changed to a staccato'd quarter note, if that's all right with you. The updated MUSX is in the "Checked Once" folder, and you can also find a copy of it here: MUSX (https://www.dropbox.com/s/sr3wyk8m2lbi7oz/Mario_Kart_8_-_Sweet_Sweet_Canyon_3.musx?dl=0)

With that, I approve this sheet.

Peanut Plains (Kirby Super Star) - Yug Guy
- RH beat 4 of m25 should be a dotted eighth - sixteenth rhythm, instead of two eighth notes.
- For m3-4, I think the main problem with it is that those jumps are really big for such a short period of time, so something like this would be much easier:
(https://i.imgur.com/T0ph2fb.png)
- I would also recommend something like this for m1-2 because I think that re-articulating the same note on in a 16th-note span is quite hard when playing dyads and doesn't add that much IMO:
(https://i.imgur.com/IfIcOVE.png)
- You might also consider raising the D on beat 1.75 in m4 LH by an octave, and/or modifying the consecutive 16ths in m26 LH beat 4, because consecutive 16ths are really hard to play with just the pinky. Haven't played piano in a while, though, so you might disagree.
- Nitpick, but I'm used to seeing the segno (m5) directly above the barline.
- I would personally notate the D in m26 as a half note just because it looks cleaner and doesn't make things more confusing by not showing beat 3. Matter of preference.
EDIT: I would also move the "& Dan Miyakawa" down to the next line so the "Composition by" text isn't so far under the title/subtitle.

Everything else checks out.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 11, 2020, 07:49:47 PM- I was wondering why you omitted all the high orchestral hits (e.g. where you could double the melody an octave higher) in places like the last two notes of m24, last note in m28, etc. While I can understand if you want to preserve the low octave of the main melody in places like m36, m53-56, and m60, I think it would be nice to add them in other places. In particular, I don't see any reason not to have them on m52 beat 4 and and m64 beat 4, where you don't have anything else going on there anyway. (At the very least, if not adding the hits, I would suggest adding accents to these notes.)
- From what I can tell, it seems like you're generally using the bass clef whenever the melody goes down to F or lower. However, I think that m20 and m36 (which are very similar) should be in the same clef for consistency's sake. On second look, though, you kept m24 in treble clef—was that intentional, or is there a different rule/pattern you're going for?
Assume you mean 20 instead of 17 for the second comment. The rest of these have been fixed! (I didn't add those extra notes in m. 4.)

- Ah good point. Yeah I can accent those orchestral hits. I've modified m. 24, 28, 36, 52, 60, 64. 53-56 I've kept as is but added accents because it would otherwise highlight the same note as previous when the melody is in a different octave.

Discussed the following changes with Latios:

Gourmet Race (Kirby Super Star) - Latios212
Changed some of the offbeat dyads to better fit the notes in the original, including:
- Bb-D dyad in m25/33 became F-Bb.
- F-A dyad in first half of m39/47 changed to F-Eb.
- G-Bb dyad in second half of m39 changed to F-Bb.
- Eb-G dyad in m40/48 changed to G-Bb.
- Bb-D dyad in second half of m36/42/44 changed to F-Bb.
- D-F dyad in m49 changed to C-F.
- Dyads in m50 changed to F-D and F-C.
I approve of this sheet.

- I'd add a B in between the G# and D in m21 beat 4 just for some extra weight.
- m32: The resolution from Dn-F# (G#dim7) to C#-E# (C#maj) in m33 is pretty prominent and sets it apart from m28-29. I'd try to find a way to incorporate those notes somehow.

All good comments, I've implemented them accordingly, except I've left 12-13 as is. It didn't really occur to me when arranging, but I felt like the high xylophone part wasn't super important to highlight over the offbeat dyads. Thanks for the help on this one!

Dangerous Dinner - Latios212
Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 10, 2020, 05:16:32 PM- This is a matter of personal arranging preference, but the intro to the original is pretty driving and the bassline by itself is a little bare—I would personally consider writing it like this (not actually playing it all with the left hand like I wrote it, but give the octaves to the LH and the higher notes to the RH), although of course it's up to you:
Spoiler
(https://i.imgur.com/bqnQ7n1.png)
[close]
- Sounds like there are some harmonies you could add to the RH melody on m16 beat 2.5, m20 beat 2.5, and m24 beat 1.5 and 2.5 (last two notes).
- m11 RH beat 4.5 (last note), I'm not hearing a chord—only the F.
- For m12 RH, I think you could raise those two chords by an octave so that the contour from m11 to m12 goes upwards, and also so that it goes higher than m8 since it's building up to the next section.
- For m12 RH, I would also tie over beat 2.5 for another eighth note since it's held longer.
- I'm hearing the Bb in m19 RH beat 4 as an octave lower than you've written it.
- Was curious why you chose to make m13 mezzo forte since I don't think it's any softer than the previous section (if anything, I think it sounds fuller/more built up).
Quote from: Dekkadeci on February 10, 2020, 08:43:22 PMI definitely see why you've moved the melody in Bars 5-8 up an octave from the original (it would collide nastily with the accompaniment otherwise), but I'd like a nod in your Bars 9-12 towards the melody moving up an octave between Bars 5-8 and Bars 9-12 in the original. I was primarily thinking a piu forte in Bar 9 to substitute for what would otherwise be a move an octave up.
- I did think about that, but I wanted m. 1-12 to gain energy while moving to m. 5 would lose this part. I think the beginning with just the bass as it can suffice given it's played with enough energy.
- Gotcha, yes. Good point, I have added more notes in those places, and for the end I added accents as well.
- ..and taken out there
- Not so sure about that one, they don't pack as much of a punch raised up that much and it's a bit of a jump to and from the surrounding parts. I think I'm following the contour of the <something brass> line and while there are harmonies above the melody there, I don't think they work too well on piano, so I inverted things down a bit to where they are now.
- Yeah I thought that was a bit weird; I think I was taking something from a different layer. Lowered, and it sounds more natural :)
- While it's fuller with more harmonies, I feel like the overall tone softens up a bit with less pounding from the percussion and low bass register. In tandem with Dekka's comment about making m. 9 more striking than m. 5 I changed m. 9 to ff and m. 13 to f. (Really though this entire song is just intense...)

Quote from: Dekkadeci on February 10, 2020, 08:43:22 PMIf you're prone, I'm hearing additional notes in the brass in the original instead of eighth rests in the RH of Bars 21 and 23 - and they're both the D above Middle C. I'm also hearing m24 beat 1.5 and 2.5 (last two notes) at an octave above what you've written there, although I can also see why you opted not to jump them up an octave.
I think what's going on there is another higher layer that is playing throughout the measures, and I wanted to keep the RH to that one layer to mirror m. 1-4.

Thanks you two for the help!

Just a couple of small things:
- Flip the bottom tie downwards in "Normal" LH
- The last dyad in "Overweight" is a quarter here instead of a dotted quarter like underweight/obese. Is this intended?
- LH is missing rests in Overweight

I went back over it and did my best to incorporate both the middle voice and the whistle thing, but everything made the sheet much more complicated and difficult to read.
I opted for making the whistle octave-doubled to fill in the middle voice and adding one of the chord tones to the left hand. This fills out the important bits without asking too much from the performer.

Quote from: Latios212 on February 16, 2020, 06:09:19 PM- I'm hearing this piece in 3/4 instead of 6/8 due to the percussion. The chime and the bell alternate every quarter beat.

Just wanted to comment on this: Like Static, I'm hearing this in 6/8. The chime and the bells alternate every quarter beat, but what pushes me to hear this in 6/8 (besides the melody itself) is that the second chime, which falls right on the fourth eighth note of the measure, is noticeably emphasized compared to the other chime/bell sounds.

Also the "(etc.)" seems kind of weird to me. Perhaps use a "simile" at m7 instead?

- m. 28/38 are missing a Bb in the harmony
- The pp markings above layer 3 are a bit low
- The pedal release markings seem a bit far to the left, slightly to the left of the 6th beat of each measure.
- I hear it in 6/8 also because of the percussion, and the melody, and the other instruments (and for the reasons msf mentioned). Looks like Square agrees too... (https://youtu.be/farg5w50YXY)
- I purposely left it out there because 5 notes is a lot in one hand and also bc the Bb plays just 3 8th notes later. I still don't really think it's necessary, but I've added them in anyway.

Radish Ruins (Kirby & The Amazing Mirror) - LeviR.star
- I got an average BPM of 137.25 with 320 tempo taps. :P Personally the way I see it is that it's better to be more exact because many metronomes can do exact BPMs, and for those that can't, you can just round to the nearest marking. Either way is fine though.
- Was also just curious why you chose to put octaves on LH beat 1 for every other measure in m15-22, since it doesn't sound like something that was taken directly from the original.

Otherwise, I like.
[close]

- if you've got enough time to tempo tap for that long, I'll quit arguing and change it to whatever you want :P
- not sure, guess I thought it needed more of that percussive punch. I'll take the bottom notes out

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 15, 2020, 12:12:24 PM
Goal Game (Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards) - LeviR.star
- It sounds like there's also a harmony note on the second eighth note of each beat (i.e. when the RH dips down). You could make the LH play these notes (with the same up-down-up contour as the RH), though I'm guessing they were cut for playability? Still, since there are only two voices and this track is short, I don't think it would be too hard at all.
(https://i.imgur.com/2nlzavj.png)

- I heard that in the original, but felt uncomfortable towards including it for fear of voice overlap. Some people could manage this, but then again... can I get a second opinion on this?

o I didn't realize it was two 16ths. In that case you can pick whichever one you like better.
Yeah, good call.

I'll accept once you let me know if you want to keep the C as an 8th note or not.
[close]

- change the C to two sixteenths, because the performer will already be playing that pattern throughout

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 15, 2020, 12:12:24 PM
Dreaming of Food (Kirby Super Star) - LeviR.star
- You might consider making the first note in m1 LH beat 1 a low F since the C isn't playing there yet.
- I'm hearing some additional notes in m5-6 LH:
(https://i.imgur.com/iiYE42t.png)
I don't think playability is a big concern if you add in these extra notes, although I might consider removing the low F on beats 1/3.
- On the very last chord, it sounds like the G is an octave higher in the original. Perhaps move it to the right hand?
[close]

- like that?
- noted, I'll change it to look like your picture, minus the low F's
- I hear it, too, but I really think the emphasis on the last accent is important, so I'm not sure about having the RH stretch out a 7th after a trio of grace notes

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 15, 2020, 12:12:24 PM
Crash! Gourmet Race (Kirby Super Star) - LeviR.star
- Add a mezzo forte in m9 to cancel the mp in m8?
- The n in m17 seems to have been shifted down from where it was before.
- The space between the staves in the last system might still be worth expanding a little bit—just so people don't think those accents are on the LH notes or anything.

I will check this one more in-depth when I am less hungry.
[close]

- I didn't think that would be needed, but I can do that. I just don't like how that mf is squished between the notes of the RH and LH now
- good catch; I forgot that it was a piece of text, not an expression
- how's that?

LeviR.star - Cappy's Stage (Stage 1)
- Maybe it's just me, but it kinda sounds like beat 4 of m10 and 14 RH should be tied to beat 1 of the next measure.
- Other than that, looks great!
[close]

- y'know, I'm relieved to have that back to being tied, because when I revised this for my personal project, I deleted the tie thinking I was hearing a re-strike. Listening through AudioOverload, turns out that it's not a re-strike, but a vibrato that only carries through the end of beat 4, not the end of the tied note. More of a possible technical oversight, if anything; thanks for pointing that out

- Perhaps include parentheses on LH beat 3.5 of m5 to avoid confusion, since both hands are playing the same note there.
- A long time ago, Ben once told me that the space between the "Arranged by" text and the second line of the "Composed by" text should be the same as the space between the two "Composed by" text lines (i.e. equal spacing between all three lines). I don't know if anyone really cares anymore (I don't mind it as is), but I thought I'd at least mention it.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 15, 2020, 02:58:44 PMJust a few formatting/playback fixes I made:

- Removed the redundant accidental on Ebb on m10 beat 3.

- Added invisible articulations to Layer 1 in m13-14 to get rid of wonky playback (now the invisible Layer 2 is the only one that plays), though I'm not sure if playback was already how you intended it beforehand. Not that playback is a big deal, but let me know if there's some specific way you want it to playback (e.g. one of us can use full Finale to add hidden percussion staves).

- Changed the invisible measure at the end from a quarter rest to a hundred twenty-eighth rest (or a semihemidemisemiquaver, as Libera would call it) so that it doesn't affect playback.

One question I had was about Layer 2 from m15-21. It sounds like you moved the notes on beats 2.75 and 3.25 of each measure down an octave compared to the original. Was this to avoid it overlapping with Layer 1? Just wanted to double-check since I think it would be okay (but by no means necessary—do it how you want) to bring those notes up even if the layers overlap.

Additionally, you might consider raising the RH in m12 and/or m22 since it feels like the melody is sort of "ascending" up to that part as it builds up. If you wanted, you could also double the Db's/Eb's by an octave in the RH in m12/22 for extra emphasis.

- Since that note is the first Ebb note in voice 1, Notepad automatically add the double flat back on the note. Instead of removing it, I make it invisible by editing the .xml file.
- The invisible notes correspond to the drum sounds that I want (35 Acoustic Bass Drum, 37 Side Stick). Changing the MIDI instrument to drum kit may do the job, but there may be better solutions.
- Tinkering and re-importing the .xml file resets the measure widths. Pasting measures also reset the distances between systems and potentially the number of systems in each page.
- Moving down those notes an octave is intentional, to let the top melody note stand out more.

Quote from: Static on February 16, 2020, 02:00:30 PM- In m2 RH beats 3-4 there's a really distinctive triplet figure here that I think would be a good addition. It's pretty prominent in the original track.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 15, 2020, 07:19:57 PM- RH beat 4 of m25 should be a dotted eighth - sixteenth rhythm, instead of two eighth notes.
- For m3-4, I think the main problem with it is that those jumps are really big for such a short period of time, so something like this would be much easier:
- I would also recommend something like this for m1-2 because I think that re-articulating the same note on in a 16th-note span is quite hard when playing dyads and doesn't add that much IMO
- You might also consider raising the D on beat 1.75 in m4 LH by an octave, and/or modifying the consecutive 16ths in m26 LH beat 4, because consecutive 16ths are really hard to play with just the pinky. Haven't played piano in a while, though, so you might disagree.
- Nitpick, but I'm used to seeing the segno (m5) directly above the barline.
- I would personally notate the D in m26 as a half note just because it looks cleaner and doesn't make things more confusing by not showing beat 3. Matter of preference.
EDIT: I would also move the "& Dan Miyakawa" down to the next line so the "Composition by" text isn't so far under the title/subtitle.
Fixed

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 17, 2020, 08:18:04 PM- Perhaps include parentheses on LH beat 3.5 of m5 to avoid confusion, since both hands are playing the same note there.
Also fixed.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 17, 2020, 08:18:04 PM- A long time ago, Ben once told me that the space between the "Arranged by" text and the second line of the "Composed by" text should be the same as the space between the two "Composed by" text lines (i.e. equal spacing between all three lines). I don't know if anyone really cares anymore (I don't mind it as is), but I thought I'd at least mention it.
I'm sure no one does. That being said, I did move the Composed by text a little farther down, if anyone actually cares.

Acorn Plains (New Super Mario Bros. U) - LeviR.star
- Any reason why the tempo marking and swing marking are separate from each either? I typically see them next to each other, and the current layout makes the tempo marking easier to miss since it's higher up.
- You might consider a grace note on RH beat 1 of m5 to simulate the onset of the whistle in the original.
- m12 and m24 should have an E under the C on RH beat 1.5.
- Measures m17-m24 are identical to m5-12, both in the sheet and in the original track. The theme actually loops at the end of m16, at which point the sheet should repeat and jump back to m5. If you decreased the spacing between systems (and fit four measures into one system somewhere), you could easily fit this on one page after making this change.

- I dunno, someone once told me once to stack them because they thought it all looked too close to the center of the page. Personally, I'll be glad to make them into one; how's that look?
- that's a good idea, consider it done.
- added, thanks for catching that
- I wasn't sure I'd do anything until someone pointed this out, because I thought the way I had it set up for this loop looked a bit goofy. Wasn't sure where to put the 4-measure system for this edit, so my best bet was the 3rd on the page. Does that work?

Saved changed to "Acorn Plains". The only sheet left in my folder after this will be "Shrimp Boss". I know I missed the deadline for it by a day, but in the off chance you guys finish sooner than expected, just know that this 8-bar piece will be there.

Peronza Plaza (Super Mario Odyssey) - Latios212
- There are pickup notes to beat 1 of m2 LH (two 16th notes: C# and D#, at the end of m1).
- To me, the B on m12 RH beat 1 doesn't sound like it works super well. Since it doesn't actually seem to be from the original, I would suggest either changing it to a G#, an E (octave below top note), or just omit the second note entirely.
- You might consider moving the 8th notes in m12-13 to the LH and using the RH to incorporate the high ascending part there.
- In the original RH harmonies, there's a C# on beat 4 of m20 and an E on beat 1 of m21 (doubles the melody an octave down). You might consider adding them for extra emphasis on these notes (like in the original).
- m23 RH beat 2.75 should be a D# instead of an E.
- Beat 4 of m28 LH should be a G# instead of a B.
- Maybe this is just v26 being weird, but for me, the staccato on beat 2 of m31 RH is above the stem rather than below the notehead.
- You might consider a courtesy B natural in m35.
- DID YOU KNOW? The tempo is actually 115 BPM instead of 116.

  • m8 LH: Dyad at beat 2.5 should have an A# added on top.
  • m21: It's really hard to hear, but there's a chord in the RH on beat 4.5—sounds like an F# major triad (F#, A#, C#).
  • m22: In the RH, the B# on beat 4.5 should have an F# below it.


I'm still hearing these things, if someone else could weigh in on these it'd be appreciated. Also, at measure 8, beat 1 I'm not hearing that upper B# in the LH. Looks great otherwise!

- The "2." for the second ending in m. 27 is a bit far to the right.

Moved most of page 1 and 3 to bass clef, it definitely helps with those extra low notes. Also adjusted the second ending's spacing.

Piggybacking on what lat said, I agree and would also recommend not beaming over rests. Going bass clef might solve your beaming woes, however. Up to you on this one I guess.

I do think moving things to bass clef helped a lot. I did split a few beams in the LH at bars 46, 48, 50, and 54. Let me know what you think.

Large Fry Cook-Off (Wario Land: Shake It!) - Static
- If you want to keep the time signature as 4/4, I would suggest adding (half note = 135) to the end of the tempo marking for the sake of metronome usage.
- The forte in m37 could be moved a little bit down and to the right.
- m55 RH beat 2 should probably be staccato'd instead of slurred.

Teatime Joy (Fire Emblem: Three Houses) - Latios212
This sounds like what you get when you cross My Sims and Kirby's Epic Yarn.
- Courtesy natural on the G in m28 LH?
- I'm guessing you omitted the LH in m13/30 to avoid voice crossing on beat 2, but I think it feels a little empty compared to the original. If not in the original register, then maybe include it an octave down? That said, you have voice crossing happening at lots of other places, so I don't see why it wouldn't be fine in the original register. I would just like those notes to be there somehow.
- Since you made m8 RH beat 2 a dyad, you might consider doing the same for RH beat 2 of m18, m25, and m34. (A G added to beat 2 of m34 sounds quite nice imo.)

- I really am not fond of the double key signature thing going on here... It doesn't really sound like a polytonic piece (just some very colorful chords), and even if it was, having multiple key signatures is more confusing to read in my opinion.
- That said, if other people think it's really a good idea to have this, I would put the 6 naturals at the beginning of each line where they should appear instead of all that empty space. I'd prefer the entire thing be keyless though...
- The 2nd quarter note in m7 should be split into 2 tied 8th notes to match the 6/8 beaming.
- Because you're switching from compound to simple time, the beginning of the 4/4 bar should have an 8th note=8th note marking to indicate no change in tempo (that the 8th note pulse stays constant).

Strawberry Crisis!! (Touhou 3: Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream) - Maelstrom
- On m46 LH beat 3, you have the B in both Layer 1 and Layer 2, which is inconsistent with how you notated the rest of m46-50 LH (omitting notes from Layer 1 when both voices play the same note). You also do the same thing on m58 beat 2.5. I think either notation is fine but it should be consistent.
- m57-60 LH should be an octave lower (which might warrant re-separating the hands into different staves if you were to use an 8vb for the LH).
- m57 RH beat 2.5, the F# should be an E.
- m59 RH beat 1.5 Layer 2 should be a C# instead of a B (minor second between C# and D).
- m59 RH, second half: The F# is a quarter note that belongs to Layer 1, while the G in Layer 2 remains tied. Layer 1 should be two quarter notes (A#, F#), while Layer 2 should be (dotted eighth)-(sixteenth tied to eighth)-(eighth) (F#-G-A#).
- m62-80 LH is an octave lower in the original—was this an intentional change to keep the whole notes in the same register from m81 onward?
- You might consider a "poco a poco cresc." from m66-80, or from m74-80.
- Missing tie on the whole notes in m96-97 LH?
- Slightly bothers me that your dynamic markings are always closer to the RH staff than to the LH staff, instead of being vertically aligned...
[close]

Maple Treeway (Mario Kart Wii) - Sebastian
- Tempo should be 144 BPM instead of 146.
- m1 beat 3, a grace note or a flat mordent on one or both of the hands might be nice.
- Missing tie on m13 LH beat 2.5?
- Sounds like there are two eighth-note chords on beat 4 of m18 that could be added to the LH.
- m22 RH beat 1, I get that the first two eighth notes are unbeamed to delineate phrasing, but I think it just looks awkward here since they would be easily beamed regardless (and the staccato makes phrasing clearer). None of the other measures are unbeamed like this either, so I think it would just be best to re-beam this beat back together.
- m23/35 RH beat 2, I think that making the beat a triplet is too rhythm for an ornamentation and places too much emphasis on the Ab, which sounds awkward. I would either write this as a G with a flat mordent, or omit the Ab entirely.
- m28 LH should be an octave lower.
- m31 RH beat 1, the G in the chord should be an A.
- I would consider adding the chords in m31 to the LH, instead of just using the bassline.
- m39 RH beat 3, I'm not really hearing where the two low E eighth notes are coming from, and I think they interfere with the melodic phrasing here. I would just tie the high E on beat 2.5 to a quarter note on beat 3.
- m39 RH beat 4, there's a low B under the melody (one octave lower than the B on beat 4.5). Obviously that's too far to reach, but you might consider raising the B up an octave and placing it on beat 4 (so the same B would be repeated on beats 4 and 4.5).
- m40 RH, there's also an Eb in the first chord and a D in the second.
- The dynamic markings in m11 and m20 should probably start right on the first beat of the measure, not on beat 1.5.
- For that matter, m11 doesn't sound any softer/less intense to me than m3-10; I personally wouldn't change the dynamics there.
- The mezzo piano marking in m38 could be lowered a little bit to be aligned with the decrescendo in m37, and also so it's more evenly spaced between the staves.
- You might also consider manually flipping the grace note slurs so that they're oriented according to the main note, rather than to the grace note, in places like m4, m8, m11-12, m13-14, etc.

I agree with Static here—it's mentally confusing to have to keep track of two different keys at once (ever try drawing different things with each hand at the same time?), and I think it would be a lot easier just to read the accidentals right off the notes themselves. IMO the current notation is only beneficial for split-brain people, lol.

- Nah, don't think it's too necessary since the keysig is clear of accidentals here so every measure is a mental reset of accidentals.
- I mentioned this in an earlier post, but I really wanted to use pedal on that triplet descent and didn't think including those notes played well with the RH part, so I opted to omit them. If you have any specific suggestions, though, let me know :P
- Oops... I thought I had edited this in when I responded to Libera here (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=11117.msg417045;topicseen#msg417045). I added the C in m. 25 just like m. 8. In m. 34 I added a C instead of doubling the G to outline the Gsus chord.In m. 17 though I think adding another note (C) would interfere with the melody line a bit much, so I left that as is.

- It's already written in the sheet (the G# is in the RH)
- I'm hearing it as written, as a dyad that does not have the A# doubled
- The E (minor seventh) is there. But I do agree that it sounds like there's an A# here as well
- Yup, that's right

Besides the above, the dyad in m. 18 should be F#-E, not F#-D#.

Rubikium, I edited the files with the above as well as some formatting fixes (mostly the margins and text box alignment but also adjusting the cross-staff beam angle in m. 15). If this looks good to you I'll accept :)

- I know the repeat structure is explained at the beginning, but I think it would be good to have a repeat sign at the end of the piece instead of an end barline.
Done and done.

- Discussed the E in m15 with Latios, we decided it would be best to leave it out even if it is there to match the surrounding measures and because the E comes right on the next 8th note. I'll be approving this one.

The only other suggestion I have would be to explicitly write out the grace notes in m1 as a sixteenth-note triplet (RH) and a sixteenth-note pair (LH). These notes here have a more clear cut rhythm that's easy to write out compared to the other grace notes in this sheet, and they feel less like ornamentations and more like part of the actual line to me. (The rhythm of the LH grace notes is different in m1 and m37, for instance, but the sheet doesn't denote that right now.)

There's a few extra notes that would be nice to include because they help the overall progression of the song. Most of what I hear is in measures like 2 and 3, there's this in the RH, +/- some note length:
(https://i.imgur.com/52j0som.jpg)
I only hear this when the melody isn't playing and that 4 measure progression is playing. So 2/3, 19/20, and 35/36.

I updated my sheets.  Thanks for checking them.  All of the stuff should have been changed (along with some note alterations in Fantastical Feast) or I've responded to them below.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 11, 2020, 07:49:47 PMGreat sheet of a very interesting (and complicated) track (although some parts hurt my wrists just looking at it, lol). The only thing I was wondering about is whether you had considered writing m27-32 in three 3/4-bar phrases. Though I can't hear a clear subdivision of beats either way, I was thinking it might subdivide the right hand better in m27-28 and the left hand better in m31-32, and it also is more continuous with the rest of the sheet and m33 onwards. The way you have it now also makes sense, though, since it's continuous with the 4/4 in m25-26 and splits everything into 2-bar phrases. It's up to you and how you hear it/want it to be expressed, but I just wanted to offer the possibility.

I see where you're coming from but I'll probably keep it how it is.  It keeps the phrases roughly the same length bar wise and I personally find it easier to think about this way, because I've already started counting in four from the previous two bars.  Just a personal preference, really; either way is probably fine.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on February 11, 2020, 07:49:47 PMAlso I don't play much piano so you probably know more than I do here, but I'm used to seeing pedal markings in the same system vertically aligned? i.e. m13 and m21 look kind of weird to me since one pedal marking is higher than the other, but this might be a perfectly acceptable way of notation that I just haven't seen before.

I understood it to be fine.  Sometimes aligning them vertically can look very ugly, at least to me anyway.

Maple Treeway (Mario Kart Wii) - Sebastian
- Tempo should be 144 BPM instead of 146.
- m1 beat 3, a grace note or a flat mordent on one or both of the hands might be nice.
- Missing tie on m13 LH beat 2.5?
- Sounds like there are two eighth-note chords on beat 4 of m18 that could be added to the LH.
- m22 RH beat 1, I get that the first two eighth notes are unbeamed to delineate phrasing, but I think it just looks awkward here since they would be easily beamed regardless (and the staccato makes phrasing clearer). None of the other measures are unbeamed like this either, so I think it would just be best to re-beam this beat back together.
- m23/35 RH beat 2, I think that making the beat a triplet is too rhythm for an ornamentation and places too much emphasis on the Ab, which sounds awkward. I would either write this as a G with a flat mordent, or omit the Ab entirely.
- m28 LH should be an octave lower.
- m31 RH beat 1, the G in the chord should be an A.
- I would consider adding the chords in m31 to the LH, instead of just using the bassline.
- m39 RH beat 3, I'm not really hearing where the two low E eighth notes are coming from, and I think they interfere with the melodic phrasing here. I would just tie the high E on beat 2.5 to a quarter note on beat 3.
- m39 RH beat 4, there's a low B under the melody (one octave lower than the B on beat 4.5). Obviously that's too far to reach, but you might consider raising the B up an octave and placing it on beat 4 (so the same B would be repeated on beats 4 and 4.5).
- m40 RH, there's also an Eb in the first chord and a D in the second.
- The dynamic markings in m11 and m20 should probably start right on the first beat of the measure, not on beat 1.5.
- For that matter, m11 doesn't sound any softer/less intense to me than m3-10; I personally wouldn't change the dynamics there.
- The mezzo piano marking in m38 could be lowered a little bit to be aligned with the decrescendo in m37, and also so it's more evenly spaced between the staves.
- You might also consider manually flipping the grace note slurs so that they're oriented according to the main note, rather than to the grace note, in places like m4, m8, m11-12, m13-14, etc.
[close]

All of the changes I listed above have been made, except I decided against adding the chords in m31. The following changes have also been made:
- Some more slurs added throughout for phrasing
- Chords in the first half of m18 LH changed to first inversion.
- Slurs flipped downward and manually adjusted in places like m3, m5-7, etc.
- Added a missing E to the melody in m27 (E-F-E-D-C-etc, instead of just E-F-D-C-etc).

It is now accepted.

- I really am not fond of the double key signature thing going on here... It doesn't really sound like a polytonic piece (just some very colorful chords), and even if it was, having multiple key signatures is more confusing to read in my opinion.
- That said, if other people think it's really a good idea to have this, I would put the 6 naturals at the beginning of each line where they should appear instead of all that empty space. I'd prefer the entire thing be keyless though...
- The 2nd quarter note in m7 should be split into 2 tied 8th notes to match the 6/8 beaming.
- Because you're switching from compound to simple time, the beginning of the 4/4 bar should have an 8th note=8th note marking to indicate no change in tempo (that the 8th note pulse stays constant).
[close]
I trust your judgement and have removed the key signatures. 
I'm not sure whether (or how) they should be mixed with sharps or not, but I've stuck to flats.

The other two issues should be resolved as well.

Title: Re: Food/Cooking Update
Post by: mastersuperfan on February 29, 2020, 06:59:53 PM
Last sheet to check!

Treat Land (Kirby's Epic Yarn) - Rubikium
- According to the in-game sound test, the names of the world themes are actually just "Grass Land," "Hot Land," "Treat Land," etc. Re-title this sheet as "Treat Land" and we'll change the other ones on-site later.
- You might consider making the half notes in m1-4 LH into two quarter notes each, since those notes are also part of the quarter note chords in the original. The same goes for the half notes in m5-8 and m49-52. I actually like the half notes better, so never mind.
- I would add G's to beats 2 and 3 in m5-8 LH, like you did in m49-52.
- You might consider placing a slur from m4 RH beat 3 to m12 RH beat 1, and then another starting on m12 RH beat 3, etc. (and then slurs across each of the following melodic phrases) You have plenty of space between systems for this, and not only does it indicate that it should be legato, but it also emphasizes that m4 RH beat 3 is a part of the melody itself, rather than just a dyad like the others in m1-4.
- m8 RH beat 3 should be spelled as a Bb instead of an A#. Consequently, a courtesy natural should be added on the B in m9 RH. The same goes for m16 RH beat 3 (Bb instead of A#), though a courtesy natural isn't necessary in m17 since the B is in a different octave.
- In m9-12 LH, all of the quarter note chords also have an F in them. There is also a dotted half F starting on beat 1, but an octave lower than you've written it. <-- (Never mind, it's actually just a quarter note) So, I would suggest using one of the following three possibilities (the first one is the fullest and includes everything and is easily playable by pedal (the first one should have a quarter note on beat 1 instead of dotted quarters), but the second and third ones are simpler and closer to what you have now). Choose whichever one you prefer. This applies to m17-20 as well.

- Whatever you do for m9-12 and m17-20, I would do the same for m13-16 as well—either keep it the way it is now, or write it as follows:
m13-16
(https://i.imgur.com/c62zpgQ.png)
[close]
^^ You'll notice that I inverted the E-C dyad in m13 and m15. In the original, the dyad is actually a third (C is lower), but it's up to you whether you want to write it like this or keep it a sixth as is, since the E-C sixth is more similar to the E-B fifth in m14 and m16. The way it is is probably better, actually.
- In m30 RH, I'm hearing the chord as G-E-G instead of G-C-G. (Although, if you wanted, you could add the E and still keep the C, too.)
- m32 RH, I'm hearing E-A-C#-E for beat 1, F-D-F for beat 2, and G-E-G for beat 3. see point below
- For m32-34, I'm hearing constant thirds under the melody (except for m34 beat 3), like so:
m31-36
(https://i.imgur.com/fvkKXZM.png)
[close]
As I wrote above, I'm also hearing an A on m32 beat 1, but it's very short and faint, so you can omit that if you want. Layer 2 is also an F instead of a D on m36 beat 1 (and I added the low D to Layer 1 instead).
- I think the courtesy natural in m33 looks a little weird since it's only on one note in the C-C octave, which might make people think at first that the top and bottom C's are played differently. Since it's pretty far from the C# in m32, it might be better to omit the courtesy natural entirely.
- I'm also hearing a G in the RH chord in m37.
- I'm also hearing an E in the RH chord in m38.
- I'm not hearing a G in the first RH chord in m39, but it might be a nice addition if you wanted it to sound fuller (especially after m37 and m38, which have four notes each).
- In m39 RH, it sounds like the E is being re-articulated on beat 3 as well.
- In m40, the C# is being held throughout the whole measure. You could either make the C# a Layer 2 dotted half note, or you could re-articulate the C# on all three beats. (I like how the latter sounds, plus it looks cleaner as well.)
- Courtesy natural on the C on m41 RH beat 1.
- I'm also hearing a D on m41 RH beat 1. (It's actually the horn, but I think it's nice since it resolves upward from the C# and adds some texture with the C natural.)
- I'm hearing the C re-articulated on m41 RH beat 3.
- m44 RH beat 2, I think the tied Eb looks kind of weird and is probably not necessary because the player will be using pedal. The held Eb also belongs to the horn, not to the string melody. Beat 2 actually just sounds like a plain octave to me, but you might consider adding in an F (or maybe re-articulating the Eb? which sounds a little more dissonant) to make beat 2 sound less empty compared to the notes before and after it. There's actually an Eb on beat 2 RH, I think.
- The Db in the m46 RH chord should be spelled as a C# to be consistent with the LH, and also because of some music theory stuff that Bespinben mentioned (chord progression I > viio7/ii > ii > V, according to him).
- m48 RH beat 1, the G in the chord should be an F.
- In m49-50, the RH chord is only C-E-C in the original and doesn't have the G. I think removing the G would be a nice touch since it gives a softer sound right as it transitions back into the soft section. If you remove the G in m49-50, I would remove the G on m48 RH beat 3 as well.
- Small thing, but personally I would remove the accent on the m49 RH chord since it implies that that chord is played more forcefully than the chords before it, which isn't really the case—it's a smoothly moving phrase with constant volume, not with it suddenly becoming more forceful as it reaches the last note.
- In m39-40, the bass is playing quarter notes (C#, E, G in m39; C#, E, Bb in m40), while the harp plays an E on beat 1.5. I would forgo the (two eighth)-(quarter)-(quarter) rhythm just for these two measures and use those quarter notes, since repeating the E on beats 1.5 and 2 sounds awkward (I'm assuming this is why you wrote G and Bb for beats 2 and 3 in these measures). The Bb on beat 3 of m39 doesn't fit, so definitely change that one, but if you would rather have a G on m40 beat 2 instead of an E to keep the eighth note rhythm, that's fine.
- I would write m45-48 all in one layer, as quarter notes, to be consistent with the bassline m29-44. The pianist will be using pedal anyways, so the low note on beat 1 will still get held. You could also bring back (2 eighth notes)-(quarter)-(quarter) rhythm you used in m28-34 by placing the fifth of the chord in the LH on beat 1.5.

I add the accent in m.49 to make the playback volume of R.H remain roughly the same around the p dynamic. I have removed it in the file but the playback could still be adjusted to intended.

I added a hidden accent to that note so it'll adjust playback but won't show up on the PDF. Accepted!
