Maelstrom

m24 - I hear the dotted 8th+16th rhythm for beat 4 in the RH

Aaaaaaaaaaand that's it.

(You mean LH?) Also for m18, 20, 22, 33, 35, and 37.

Was also just wondering if it was an intentional decision to make m32 LH a whole note instead of a dotted half.

Just checked again, and I'm pretty sure in those places it's the percussion, not the bass, that's playing on beat x.75. However, I wouldn't be opposed to filling those in anyway to make the arrangement a bit more interesting by incorporating that rhythm. Thoughts?

Nope, that was a mistake, thanks :P

Yeah, listening again, it sounds like most of them are percussion, but they're easy to hear as pitched notes too. It's hard to tell, but m35 and m37 in particular sound like those notes might actually be part of the bass instead of just percussion? I think it's fine either way.

Haha thanks Levi, good to know I haven't lost my ability to mentally separate parts in the new year :P

I'll just leave it as is (i.e. transcribed verbatim bass) for now unless someone else feels strongly about adding in those extra 16ths.

Looks good, although I'd probably have written this in heavy swing rather than dotted quaver semiquaver.

I second this sentiment. You could also add a thing to the tempo marking that says "Swing (2 8ths = dotted 8th-16th)", but I don't know how to make that from scratch to have it look like the regular triplet one.

Latios212

I would rather not do that here. Leaving it like this makes it abundantly clear where the long and short notes are making it easy for the performer to interpret.

Alright, fair enough I suppose. Many old jazz scores have swung notes written out explicitly the way you have it, so it's not incorrect, just not my personal preference here. I'll accept.
