If you hadn't genuinely not-known, I would've been offended (being a trumpet player myself). XD

I play trumpet as well... I think I may have offended my self...

Definitely does. All of the symphonies and concerti of Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Rachmaninoff, Liszt, Wagner, Brahms, and Schumann had them.

Ah! Okay! Thanks for the info! 

Hey, me likes! Especially the hand signs at the beginning.

Thanks! I'm a little new to the orchestra, scene so I wasn't sure if it was going to be any good.
(I wonder if it's still an orchestra if you got brass instruments...)

Gosh I love Naruto (at least before it got predictable) and you have to show me your final work when you're finished with it.

Now I'm not going to do the stuff for you but I will say that it sounds like some simple power chords with some higher-end sus resolutions in the second halves.

(For all you non-guitarists out there: Power chord = 5th chord; involving the root and the 5th and often the doubled root an octave higher.
Sus chord = Major chord with an added 4th usually as the top note which is what's happening here)

For all you guitarists out there, I feel like this would've been played using a D major chord position to get that sus the way it's done.

Let me know if that didn't make enough sense and I'll try to reword it more classically.

I have only been playing piano for about 1 and a half years (or was it 2...?) I have been focusing mainly on being able to play sheet music well and stuff so I am just now getting into chords and theory, so it might not have turned out that well. And I'm sad to say that I have finished it before I read your post  . And just so you know, it's an orchestral remix.

So here is the final version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvEEKV8Wx0U

Try see if this helps http://www.audiostretch.com/audiostretchforflash/.
You can slow down the song how much you want, and thereby facilitate hearing the notes.

Awesome thanks!

Totally recommended. Best of all, it's free.

Thank you! I will make sure to check it out! 

(Not sure if this belongs here because it's a song from an anime not a video game  ) So, I got a request recently to remix Naruto's main theme and... I can't figure out what notes are being played by the electric guitar at 35 seconds into the song. Maybe I am just a little tired from working on it for a while, but for the life of me I can't figure it out  . So if any body can help it would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

My advice is to just play (or keep playing) music of different time signatures, and listen to music for which you know the time signature(s) already. Even with a passive investment in learning about time signatures while doing this, you'll start to subconsciously pick up the conventions common to each time signature. Understanding how syncopations work within those time signatures is especially helpful.

OK, Will do! Thanks!

See if you can identify an accent which usually will indicate beat one.

Also: (in case you haven't noticed it yet) there's a thread for this kind of thing if you have a specific example that you're having trouble figuring out.

Thanks! I wasn't talking about any specific song, I just want to have this information for when I need it XD!

@Maelstrom (I don't know how to quote multiple things because I am a scrub XD) Okay! Thanks for the advice!

I am a noob transcriber/arranger, and I was wondering how you would tell if a piece is in 4/4, or 3/4, etc. If it is extremely obvious then maybe I'm thinking too hard XD. Any help would be appreciated!

If you are still looking for MIDI here is Leap The Precipice that I did a while back. The link to the MIDI is in the description.
