That's fair, I've adjusted this so that they aren't as close.

I think you were confused about this in one of my previous submissions as well. I've adjusted the scale of the document, which is why it appears smaller, in case you were curious. I do this sometimes when I feel like the music spacing will benefit.

I would prefer not to move the copyright information higher. I see no practical reason to have a large unused margin space at the bottom of the sheet if its only going to squish everything above it.

Honestly, I don't feel like they were close enough to need a mention, but I've scooted them down a smidge to please you. :>

Quote from: Bloop on July 12, 2024, 01:03:09 PMDouble posting because I happened to also take a look at:

Sector 4
-This piece seems mostly be in Bb minor, though that mostly only becomes clear from m16 on. Thoughts on including a key signature there or for the whole piece?
-m12 beat 3.5 to m15: There seems to be a lower Bb here in the strings too. If the R.H. takes the top notes here, the L.H. can play that lower Bb.
-m44: The Bb in the R.H. on beat 2 is an octave higher in the original
-m47: I'm assuming you used the Bbb here in the R.H. for a Gbm chord, but maybe you could write it as an An too, as it's functionally similar to dropping to a leading tone?

Great suggestions, I've done them all. I added the key signature at 16. The file has been updated!

Hi there, Kricketune. Thank you for taking the time to look over my arrangement, I really appreciate that. ^^ I am, however, not quite sure where these visual discrepancies are coming from, as I've been using this template just fine for so long and have never had issues with submissions here about fonts and sizes, etc. The notehead font for the tempo is Finale's default for tempo marks, EngraverText, which by the formatting guidelines should be acceptable (it actually does not make mention of requiring ANY specific font for that...). As for the other fonts, all of them are the exact pitch as required in the formatting guidelines (I went ahead and double-checked. You can do this by double-clicking the text box, highlighting the text and hovering over "size" in the text tool drop down at the top).  ???

-Sorry about the tempo text-it probably does seem a little odd as-is. This is the second iteration of this piece in-game, which I've also arranged. In that arrangement I instructed the player to perform it as simply "Warm and Nostalgic." This version is more grand and fleshed out, which is why I kept the previous instructions and just basically asked for more of that XD As for the word "even" not being capitalized, let me ask why do you think it should be?
-Oops, thanks for catching the date. I've fixed this!
-Could be either, doesn't really make a difference. It will be known what is being asked d:
-This is most likely a blur caused the different timbres and note lengths. The original track this is an arrangement of doesn't have anything like that. Not that I'm saying that's impossible, just that it seems more farfetched since its supposed to be a call back to the 8-bit version which is very clear about that ostinato.
-Good catch. I think it's more likely an eighth rest by the sound of it. This has been updated!
-Honestly I'm not sure why you suggested just those measures. The part I grabbed that from occurs in every measure from 22 until the end, and I excluded it because imo it sounded tacky and intrusive ot the flow of the linear melody, so I only used it as an effect in that one place after the run.
-You mean left, right? and unfortunately it doesn't snap until the line is gone in those measures, which is a pain ik...
-Yes, it does repeat in-game.

-I agree, changed.
-Left that out on purpose tbh. I tried to make more of a break for this cadence rather than make it entirely nonstop. Gives the LH more time to reset too.
-That's fair, I'll change it to that then.
-I kind of like the unambiguity it has as it is, tbh. I think it's pretty safe to assume anyone looking for Pokmeon Route themes know that they loop indefinitely. Adding "Opional [anything]" to the already wordy D.S. al coda setup would, imo muddy things up more than clarify an obvious thing. Keep things concise, you know-does that make sense?
