Kid Icarus Overworld was already done by HugoMeister.

Compare your sheets.

His is the Brawl version. Mine is the original. Looking over the sheet though, I do notice some problems:

1. The double flats need to go.
2. Some of your notes are wrong in the melody.

Its a really good arrangement besides those two points!

double flats are alright if you ask me... there's nothing wrong with including them (to me at least)...

melty molten galaxy should be in 3/4, there are missing chords, and the rythm is wrong. The actual rythm is a dotted 8th note followed by a 16th note. More Like my arr. of this song (mine's not done):

I don't know about you, but I find double flats very annoying. Especialy there is a B double flat in F major O.o'. Yes... Very annoying *shudders*

Agree with Hungry Dragon, just make sure you get a rid of those double flats and it sounds fine to me. Maybe other people have complaints, but I don't (so far =p).

I totally forgot to post this, but I don't know what notes the double flats should be... I don't know whether i remove the flats and lower it a note or what to do. I meant to ask this in the original post.  Second, about melty molten galaxy, I do realize that the arrangement sounds empty, but you shouldn't put drum parts into piano parts.  Second, if i change the time signature to 3/4, will it affect any of my notes.  And to the person who replied about melty molten galaxy, i'm not sure what rhythm you're talking about.

double flats FTW. last year my band teach gave us extra credit if we re-wrote a song using only one note and an insane number of flats of sharps. mine went up to like a B############## and down to like a Bbbbbbbbbbbbbbb.

You guys have no idea why double sharps and double flats exist do you? ::) There's a reason why they exist. For one thing, no they are not there for aesthetic reasons just to make your sheets look "complex" because the way it's used in that score is wrong. However I'll let you guys do the research. Google it! ;)

Double flats and sharps are only used to fit a key sig (at certain times)

since a flat is just a half-step down a double flat is two half-steps down, or one whole-step down.

Abb = G
Fbb = D#

And stuff like that. Move two keys down (don't skip black keys, though!)

I'm surprised no one else mentioned this...
Too many tuplets (or triplets, i'm not sure which term is correct)=wrong time sig. I started one with the rite sig.

And...

Arrangement Supervisor: Shougo Sakai
But GREAT work. Sounds awesome, just clean up the double flats.

What do you do to a double flat when that flat is already in the key sig.  Ex what is a Bbb in F major (with Bb in key sig)

an Ab. i think. i only like multiple flats in C major.

Post by: chipmunk884 on April 24, 2008, 06:29:55 PM
I figured out what to do and i posted the revised version.  I think that it is ready to be added to the site, but i still need feedback to be sure, hopefully from ghan...  Anyway, I still want help on figuring out what to do for the last 3 or 4 measures in "The story begins" piece.  If you can fix it, I will credit you in the piece before it is added to the site.  And with melty molten galaxy, changing the time signature messes it up big time, so it has to stay at 4/4.  I think that was the only complaint for melty molten galaxy.

Um... did you read my last post? WRONG TIME SIG!!!
And this demands a key change at measure 29 then back at 60

Just in case anybody didn't read my previous post, I need help on fixing the last few measures of "The Story Begins" from smg. Second, I just finished "Home Run Contest" from ssbb and added it to my first post, so check it out and leave your feedback.  I know it is short, but I'm pretty sure that it's accurate.
Title: Re: Chipmunk884's Arrangements
Post by: PianoMan on April 25, 2008, 01:58:41 PM
WHY ARE YOU IGNORING ME!!!!!!!!? WRONG TIME SIG!!! same with Homerun contest. They both belong in 12/8 time. Turn all tuplets normal, and "normal" notes dotted.

You need to fix the time sig though. The song doesn't feel right when u play it. The rythm is wrong too. I suggest re-doing this one :-[
Title: Re: Chipmunk884's Arrangements
Post by: chipmunk884 on April 26, 2008, 06:19:47 AM
PianoMan, I know that you've been saying wrong time signature, but "The Story Begins" doesn't have any triplets, so why should it be 12/8.  Do you mean melty molten galaxy?  And I know that I'm probably making you very angry with me, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which piece you mean.  And I'm working on fixing home run contest into 12/8, and so far, it looks a lot better.  Expect it done by the end of the day.
Title: Re: Chipmunk884's Arrangements
Post by: PianoMan on April 26, 2008, 06:25:51 AM
Thank you for replying. I mean Kid Icarus Underworld. Sorry 'bout flipping out.
Title: Re: Chipmunk884's Arrangements
Post by: chipmunk884 on April 26, 2008, 06:31:22 AM
Ok, I'll try to fix it.  Hopefully, you will like the improved versions much better, mostly because they don't look so messy.

EDIT: I just finished fixing Home Run Contest, so see the link in my first post.  I don't have the patience or the time to fix the 5 page Kid Icarus Underworld, so if anyone would fix it for me, they would get credit for it on the sheet.  I just don't have enough time to do it, as it took over an hour to do Home Run Contest, a half page piece.  Enjoy the improved piece!

Sorry for double posting, but why hasn't anyone replyed to the new and improved home run contest song.  Also, i'll say that once again, i don't have the time to convert kid icarus underworld to 12/8, so i need someone to help me by doing it and fixing the notes.  Finally, could someone please help me fix the last 3-4 measures of the story begins?  And I'm switching home run contest to my submission because it is done, and kid icarus underworld still needs fixing.

In the Kid Icarus song, all of the measures that have the same rythm as measure 15 are off. The notes are too low. It should start on E flat, not C.

Thank you so much for converting Kid Icarus Underworld into 12/8 for me, PianoMan.  I have updated my first post, and added your name under the arrangers in the sheet.  I would have never had enough time or patience to correctly convert it.  It took me like half an hour to to a half page piece, so obviously you spent a lot of time working on it, and i greatly appreciate it.

I post this on behalf of Frank/The_Grimace

QuoteI'd especially like to mention Chipmunk884's great arrangement of the "Kid Icarus Underworld" theme from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, which he arranged with the help of PianoMan.  Not only must it have been a very difficult song to arrange, but it is arranged very well, though it may not be an easy piece to play!

----------

hope you guys realize that you guys should have my name for that sheet up there and not the noobs copying it from me.   

http://www.apollomix.com/sheetViewer.php?song=1209004393

i arranged these sheet almost 2 months ago, and i put tons of effort, time, and sweat into making it.  It is without a doubt my arrangement as not only did i instantly recognize my unique style in arranging, but every single note is copied from mine without change.

this is completely unacceptable and i demand its removed at once.  I mentioned this to admin earlier, whom they said they were taking care of it right away and removing it, but hours later, the sheet is still up, praising the plagerizer of my sheet.

ah ha! i knew there were 1004 sheets before... but anyways... when the story begins sounds pretty good... the song still sounds like the real song when there's no 8va... so u could just say that it's optional to play the 8va... (although that's just me.. if u don't agree then completely ignore my post)  ;)

I'm sorry, but Frank told me about this like 5 hours before I posted the warnings saying that he told the admins and when I posted it was still there. He would have told it himself but for some reason he couldn't post.

Even though i didn't copy you in any way, Mike, i still removed the link from my post and already contacted concerto no.20 through pm and worked it out.  GHan will be the one to remove it from the updated list on the home page, and i'm surprised he didn't do it already.  I'm sorry for all of the confusion and misunderstandings, and next time, i'll be sure to check more carefully to make sure that a piece hasn't already been aranged by someone else.

G-Han, has this type of thing ever happened before where someone arranges a piece from a midi and after submitting, finds out that another person posted their version on another site?  It seems like it could easily happen, and it would be very hard to find out if another site already has the piece that you are working on.
Title: Re: Chipmunk884's Arrangements
Post by: Gu4n on June 19, 2008, 12:35:14 AM
Yeah, it happens over and over again, but that's not the point is. The point is that your arrangement sounds exactly the same as Frank's arrangement, which can't be coincidence since it's an orchestral song. For example, 8-bit music has a very limited amount of instruments (staffs) being used, so as an arranger you're limited to these staffs and so it's possible that two arrangements from different arrangers sound alike. But when an orchestral song is arranged and sounds this much alike, it must be copied. It might sound a little straight-fowarded, but this is my way of looking at it.

Of course, I'm not going to check every sheet available on the web thoroughly when updating the site so I'm sure no one has stolen his or her submission; I expect everyone submits arrangement they have arrangement, otherwise submitting has no point. You'd better put up a link to the sheet on ApolloMix or any other sheet music archive, saves time ánd problems! And like I've said before, it's not like ApolloMix and NSM are rivals of eachother, just alternative ways of getting sheet music!

Oh no, I didn't realize that was the exact same sheet. :-[  I'm accepting The Story Begins, but I hope that it is your own work this time.  You also really need to watch your sheet formatting.

I also went ahead and edited the news on the front page, including that paragraph Mike quoted.
