Well, that's rather insulting.

My point stands - where are you getting the idea that the sheets we upload outside of submissions are not checked over as thoroughly by as many updaters? Not everything the updaters do is public, you know.

Show me a sheet uploaded to the site in the past year that doesn't meet quality standards.

Try this

You're not doing any good trying to fit it on 3 pages when you end up with cramped 5-measure systems. Give the music some space to breathe, even if that means one extra page.

(also lemme know if I made everything a little too small, I may have accidentally done that)

(Beautiful piece, by the way.)

I'm finally getting around to redesigning my OP! Right now it's a pretty bare-bones table but at least I've updated it with all my links to all the relevant files - everything has been re-checked. All 86. Whew. That was the tedious part.

Now comes the fun part, re-sorting it so the games are ordered how I want, making headings for each game, and adding extra fun things to the table! Stay tuned~

Oh, and I added an arrangement from Pokémon TCG.

Well one thing you can do is play it at like 10 bpm and then speed the video up!

Hi there!

Cool arrangement. I noticed you have Notepad so I fixed some formatting things up for you: [MUS]

Other things:
- The whole arrangement was an octave too low. I think keeping the notes at the original pitches would help maintain the music-box-like feel; what do you say?
- Some of the left hand notes were incorrect. Compare with what you had before.

Thank you both! ^^

Now for today's...

[NDS] Yoshi's Island DS

"Yoshi's Island":

Uhh we did the majority of what we have in about the timeframe of a week or two but that was a month or two ago before we became busy with other things. I don't set deadlines for finishing arrangements, but hopefully another week or two will do it.

peek at the tip of the tip of the iceberg, page one

Solo piano reduction will come after vocal+accompaniment arrangement is complete.

Help! / Re: How can I become a better arranger?

Yep! Just don't be afraid to try and fail.

I would stress the importance of picking something easy to start with - NES or Game Boy music is a good starting point because it has a maximum of three voices of roughly equal volume (generally speaking). My first two sheets were really bad because they involved chords and heavily orchestrated sections. But then I started arranging Pokémon Gold/Silver music, became more familiar with listening for voices and putting notes on the page, and used that as a jumping off point before attempting harder pieces.

One thing I would like to add is to browse a lot of sheets (from the main site, perhaps). Try to pinpoint what you like about the masterpieces, and avoid doing the things that the... less desirable... sheets on site do.

Being helped out by a professional/mentor? Not in person, but by working closely with a select few people from NSM, essentially, yes.
