I hope I'm doing this right, and that this hasn't been requested/ is being arranged (I searched, but soo... many...) who knows what I missed?)

Anyways, what I think would be cool to add to the NSM archive is

"A little heart to heart" and

"Rocket Jump Waltz" Completed by ALPRAS

I've been looking around the forums, and there seems to be quite a bit I don't understand, noow so than when I first joined.

Originally, I joined this forum in the hopes of making new friends and learning how to arrange music to contribute to this archive. In the beginning I had no clue how to do that, and assumed you all had something to the equivalent of super powers gained from toxic radiation. I started peeking around on the various threads, and found something where someone said you could learn the key signature of a piece by guessing tonic pitch (<- no clue what that is). If someone could explain what that is and how to do that, that would be awesome

Also, do you guys just listen to the pieces and put down what you hear? Because otherwise I don't see any ways of doing it, but that seems very time consuming and frustratingly difficult...

Third, who would like to adopt the task of becoming my mentor! >:O

EDIT: Thanks for answering my questions, and I can't wait to start arranging pieces! (For some reason it posted the thread when I was typing this, so it didn't get put in the post...)

On my Macintosh I loved using Finale to compose music, but I couldn't find a Finale for windows, all I could find was Finale Notepad (which if none of you have used it... it's pretty bad). So what do you Windows users use?
