Title: Replacement Initiative
Post by: Libera on January 10, 2022, 04:11:49 PM
Hello all, and welcome to NinSheetMusic's new Replacement Initiative!  Let me explain how this will work, because it will be very different to previous replacement projects.

Over the past year or so, the updating team have been going through all of the sheets on-site that currently need replacing and have divided them into categories based on how far they are away from meeting the site's standard (i.e. how good they are).  You can find out more about this new and improved replacement audit here (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=12125.msg413903;topicseen#new).  Below is a list of 10 of the most needed replacements based on that categorisation (semi-arbitrarily chosen from the M category).  We have put them into difficulty categories to help you gauge how hard they may be to arrange replacements for, but your experience may differ to our estimates.  We would like to encourage you to have a go at replacing one of these sheets, and you will be rewarded with an extra sub slot for doing so!  I will explain the details of how this will work below the list.

Easy
Medium
Hard

Here's how it will work:

It has been common knowledge (certainly among the updaters) for years.



I'm going to throw something together for the Illusion of Gaia sheet, although I'm not 100% on what its name should actually be.

So I was initially quite confused as this didn't seem to match the video that we had found earlier, but I think I have some idea what is happening.  Am I right in saying that the Halo 2 menu actually plays some sort of collection of shortened tracks from the game's OST?  It seems a section of 'The Last Spartan' plays on the menu and that this is what the original sheet was trying to arrange?  This is a slightly weird situation because from my point of view it's not actually entirely clear what a 'replacement' actually means.  Should we be putting up a sort of compilation sheet of all of the shortened tracks that cycle on the menu screen, or should we put a full version of what is currently truncated (i.e. the Last Spartan)?

My guess would be that when people see 'Halo 2 - Menu' they are expecting the choral piece that seems to be the initial track that plays in the cycle.  I guess if we change the name that is isn't a problem, but are we actually replacing the sheet and not just substituting it for something else?  I'm open to ideas here.  Maybe someone who is more familiar with the Halo 2 OST can chime in with something sensible.

So I'm not actually 100% sure about this myself. The replacement audit just listed the sheet onsite as actually "The Last Spartan." The actual "Menu" track seems to be completely different from what I recall. I just arranged Last Spartan to try and follow the guidelines. Worst case, I guess we could submit it as a new sheet.

Yeah... there are some instances on site where what the sheet contains doesn't actually correspond to the title listed. There's pros and cons to making the replacement either way. Replacing the arrangement and correcting the title ensures that the musical content is still there for anyone playing that particular piece. On the other hand, arranging the actual piece for the title means that we're finally delivering what we are advertising.

In my opinion, doing it either way (replacing the arrangement and correcting the title, or arranging the actual piece for the title) is fine since there will be a little confusion either way. For this case, though I don't know anything about the Halo 2 soundtrack, I would suggest we take this as the replacement in the interest of clearing out the old sheets on site sooner rather than later.

Done with SMRPG's Logo intro. I think the song the sheet is mostly based on is called "The Sword Descends", which I believe plays at the end of the prologue when the logo appears. For some reason the first staff of the sheet on site is part of the actual intro of the game, which is called "In the Flower Garden". Not sure why they decided to put that in, but oh well. Will add this to submissions soon!

Antenna Cradle (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/e4gyx857omnu80z/AABUvNQEnW4esaBTEY_7pslLa?dl=0) is not yet ready for submissions ( I have to add some dynamics and a repeat among other things), but I wanted to see if I could get some feedback on the forums on some decisions I've made so far, particularly m50-81's RH. This entire part is up an octave from what it is originally, and I am looking to see if anyone thinks for m50-64 if:
- The upper octave should just be removed despite the fact that a second voice is introduced in the m49 beat 4 pickup to 50
- The m62 and m63 chords are too high sounding

As for 65-81 I'm wondering if:
- The upper octave should be deleted, middle chord notes moved to their correct octave


All of these collisions between original RH pitches and the LH part could also technically be solved by putting the LH down an entire octave.  Interested to hear what others have to say

My vote would be for this.  I don't know if it's just the soundfont but the piano in the original sounds like it's that low anyway.  It's certainly very bass-y.  At least try it out to see what you think.  I also think that they way it currently is is also fine.

While I'm here though I'll just point out a few other things I noticed (I know it's not finished yet):
-I don't hear the Gs in bars 73/81.
-'Composed' doesn't need a capital in your composer credits.
-The Cns on the last page should probably be B#s.

A little notification about GoldenEye 007 replacements!

Yug Guy has recently provided a link to a tweet by Graeme Norgate, with titles and composer credits for all GoldenEye 007 songs. We've decided to use this list as the official source for GoldenEye 007 replacements. Make sure also to add a text box between the composer and arranger credits saying "Based on the James Bond Theme Composed by Monty Norman". Check this sheet (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/download/pdf/340) for an example. This (https://twitter.com/Norgans/status/1295311430980374528?s=20&t=VpRO7-5t3aiFxzmLhBXbDA) is the link to the aforementioned tweet, but here's a list with all the ones that still need their replacement submitted:

Name on site  New official name  New official composer
Archive  Military Intelligence Archives  Grant Kirkhope
Arkangelsk Dam  Byelomorye Dam  Grant Kirkhope
Aztec Complex  Aztec Complex  Graeme Norgate
Caverns Elevator  Elevator Music (Caverns)  Graeme Norgate

Over 4 months have passed but here is Aztec Complex. I spent more time on this than I'm willing to admit lol "Easy" maybe wasn't the category for this one

m22-23 RH beats 1 and 2.5 are a combination of the guitar instrument part that was represented in m12 for example.
m32-39 added some chord notes to buff out this section a bit

The LH part throughout is a combination of the drums, as well as a much less audible low organ that makes up the bassline in the original.
I think the current pattern is a happy medium between difficulty and what is heard

I suppose the track could repeat at m74 but I think works better going four more bars and then going to m8

Yeah sorry if the difficulty categories don't quite match up.  We did say that it might not in advance, since it's sometimes difficult to tell how hard something is to arrange without actually attempting it properly, but we felt that they would still be useful to have regardless.  Anyway, thank you for the work!

Title: Re: Replacement Initiative
Post by: Static on July 18, 2023, 06:06:51 PM
I'd like to claim Evergreen, however...

The sheet on the site that is currently titled "Evergreen," is not actually an arrangement of Evergreen. In fact, it's not from Terranigma at all. I don't recognize it though, so if anyone else does I guess consider this an unofficial melody quiz of sorts.

In the meantime I'll be working on an arrangement of the track actually called Evergreen.
Title: Re: Replacement Initiative
Post by: LeviR.star on July 19, 2023, 06:22:29 PM
I have great news! After doing some sleuthing around the Internet, I was able to correctly identify the source of the "Evergreen Forest" sheet we have on-site for Terranigma. The real track behind the arrangement is "Clash of Light and Shadow" (alternatively titled "Threat of Dark Gaia") from Illusion of Gaia, composed by Yasuhiro Kawasaki. This game and Soul Blazer are apparently considered Enix's unofficial predecessors to Terranigma.





While I would normally volunteer myself to assist with this Replacement Initiative entry, I already have three sheets lined up for the next submission cycle, and I'm sure Static is more familiar with arranging this sort of music anyway. So I'll just leave it up to him or anyone else that wants to take it on. Cheers!

Actually, we already have this sheet on-site under the correct game (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/browse/series/Other#sheet1437), also classed as an M on the audit. For this reason, I don't think replacing Evergreen Forest with this one is a good idea, but you can of course replace both separately.

There's not really an underlying reason aside from the fact that both sheets are separately in need of replacement, and the one currently listed in the initiative is Evergreen (even if the sheet's contents isn't Evergreen).

Then in that case the entry in question should be updated to reflect the real source, and the clone of it that is titled "Evergreen" should be deleted. Just my two cents, but my understanding is that this sheet was brought into the Replacement Initiative because of its contents, regardless of the title's accuracy.

Not saying Static shouldn't bother arranging the real "Evergreen" but in my opinion that can wait until the Illusion of Gaia sheet is replaced.

Alright, my arrangement of The Wind is Blowing at Cavi Cape (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/91c492s3ttd7q7w/AACDbrjeecrl863ZL6Tjq6sCa?dl=0) is ready to be posted here. Can't wait to have this one updated, I look forward to working on feedback.

Quote from: LeviR.star on July 20, 2023, 05:51:38 AMSorry, I'm not sure I understand. Why are we putting priority on replacing "Evergreen" when a sheet for it never really existed in the first place? There's two copies of the Illusion of Gaia final boss sheet and neither of them are good.
Hey, sorry if this is confusing. Some similar situations have come in the past but I don't think we've made it super clear what to do with a mislabeled sheet that needs to be replaced.

When a sheet for track A is labeled as track B, there are two main lines of reasoning:
1 - Replace it with a sheet for track A and correct the labelling, because the content of what's being replaced is important. Any user who saw the old sheet and found it of poor quality will have a fresh sheet for the same piece of music.
2 - Replace it with a sheet for track B, because the original sheet was unfit for the site and we should deliver on the promise to offer a sheet for track B. Any user who saw that we offered track B on site and was confused will have a fresh sheet for what they were originally looking for.

I think we have examples of both we've done in the past. It's essentially the same question here, between whether to simply delete the Evergreen sheet because it is a mislabeled duplicate, or to replace it to maintain the site's listing of sheets.

As for my opinion? I actually don't mind either way, so I'll defer to the other updaters.

I actually have an arrangement  (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=9933.msg431941#msg431941)of this one. I may submit it soon. That way we can kill two birds with one stone.

I think for the Replacement Project, this is what I did for a couple mislabeled sheets. I think that makes the most sense if there's just one misnamed sheet. However, in this case there are also two copies under two games, so it might be worth just replacing both. Would like to hear others' thoughts before I submit Evergreen, but I don't really care much either way. I'd be fine submitting it as a normal, non-replacement initiative sheet since I was probably gonna do that at some point anyway even without the initiative.

I'll let NineLives handle Threat of Dark Gaia/Clash of Light and Shadow though, since I haven't started it.

I did "Lloyd's Theme" and will be submitting it shortly given that I still have 1 open spot (I guess replacement submissions aren't working atm? Or I otherwise can't figure it out). There were two recent soundtrack releases with an incomplete vinyl release in 2021 (VGMDB link (https://vgmdb.net/album/110088)) and a full soundtrack release in Feb 2023 for the remaster (Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/album/3Ww0UclZziAyyPLE5SBrcB) | iTunes (https://music.apple.com/jp/album/%E3%83%86%E3%82%A4%E3%83%AB%E3%82%BA-%E3%82%AA%E3%83%96-%E3%82%B7%E3%83%B3%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%8B%E3%82%A2-%E3%82%AA%E3%83%AA%E3%82%B8%E3%83%8A%E3%83%AB%E3%82%B5%E3%82%A6%E3%83%B3%E3%83%89%E3%83%88%E3%83%A9%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF/1668055223?l=en-US)). The iTunes version has quite a few typos though, such as "Collet" instead of "Colette"

I will write a comment about the proper name for this theme in the submissions thread too, but "Lloyd's Theme" should be changed to "Lloyd". Also, my "Full force" arrangement on-site should have two capital F's. It kind of bothered me that the capitalization was different from the rest of the Tales of Symphonia sheets on site, so now there's not even any reason to leave it that way

There's also a chance that I might do "Kratos" eventually as well. It's been in the Replacement Initiative for over a year and should be retired at this point

Does submitting replacements not work for you at the moment? Considering you only have 1 slot used at the moment, I don't see why there would be an issue.. I can submit it for you if you'd like.

Full Force has been/will be updated also, thanks for the files!

Is it okay if I have a go at "Kratos" (unless Zeila is still planning to do it?)

In general, I don't see why not! However, we have the following rule for replacements: If you've made edits to an existing sheet you can only replace the on-site version with express permission from the original arranger.
Do you think you'd be able to/willing to make an arrangement on your own, instead? If you want to you could ask Zeila if they'd like to work on it with you :)

Post by: Francesca on September 12, 2023, 11:26:31 PM
That makes sense! I did actually arrange this from scratch, though, as you can see the original sheet is very much different from what I have... I credited Riulyn mostly out of respect for the original arranger, but none of their work has actually been used. Should I just credit myself, then?
Title: Re: Replacement Initiative
Post by: XiaoMigros on September 13, 2023, 03:29:24 AM
Ah, I see! Yes, in that case you should credit just yourself. It's unfortunate that the work of the old arranger will be lost but that's just how it is...
Title: Re: Replacement Initiative
Post by: Francesca on September 13, 2023, 11:56:41 AM
I understand, though please let me know if there's any way I can still credit the previous arranger, even as Special thanks or something similar! I've updated the files, so either way feel free to take a look at the arrangement whenever there's time
Title: Re: Replacement Initiative
Post by: XiaoMigros on September 14, 2023, 02:15:29 AM
The new submission is up! As for crediting, even if it feels a little harsh that's just how things are. The old arrangement will continue to exist, after all, a replacement only changes the sheet available on the site (which should be the best one possible!)

4 sheets were replaced via the initiative this update, so 4 new ones have been added to fill their place! We encourage you to take a look...

Despite the, um...outdated look of the original sheet I think it held up pretty well. (Mainly because this isn't too difficult of a song) Anyway here's my replacement! Biggest issue was trying to fit some of the chords underneath, but shouldn't be too rough to go through I don't think :)
