Haven't played 3 Houses is this for the House of Skrillex???
Love the tempo note lol (I know enough to know the reference)
Haha this map is played on two routes actually. It was pretty surprising to hear that this was a track in the game
-RH melody starting at m1 and continues throughout the piece- have you considered notating the top layer quarter notes as either staccatos or staccatissimos? The violin part in the original sounds like that's how the rhythm is being played
I wasn't sure if it was just a particularly strong attack that's still held or actual staccato'd notes. I switched it to staccato quarter notes (and it's also closer to what would actually be playable too). I left m21-24, m29-32, and m45-end as half/quarter notes though since those seem different, and then I noticed that the additional voice in 25-28 is actually held so I changed that
-m5 move the mp and cresc. a bit higher
I wanted to keep this on the same line as the cresc. hairpin, so I just increased the space between staves a bit more
-m11 LH beat 4 I hear this as the two sixteenths dotted eighth rhythm also seen in m9 and 10.
I think I got confused by one of the percussive instruments, fixed
-m12 beat 4 I think these notes sound even, and could be written as triplets
It's hard to tell so I changed it, but then I'm also wondering if beat 1 of measure 17 should be changed too. I left that one as is for now
-pg 2 seems quite high margin-wise, but considering how all the measures and systems are currently set up I can understand and it's probably fine
Yeah, I'll keep it for now but if someone else also thinks it could be changed then I'll do it
-m13 beat 2 I think would sound better going to C# rather than Bn. I did pitch it up as well to confirm, but that is what that "part" sounds like it is doing in the original and in my opinion fits the structure of the key/chord a bit better.
This also fits the rest of it anyways because I stopped including Bn's/A#'s later, so it's been changed
-m13 feedback is kinda subjective because I can understand progression that's going on in the LH here in this arrangement. Otherwise the pitches would just be C# varying octaves.
If you have any other suggestions then I'll consider them :3
-What is the purpose of doing the big numbers for some of the measures? I've never seen before/known the reasoning
In ensemble pieces, there are either numbers or letters (if there are more symbols then I am unaware) for rehearsal markings placed at different sections to make it easier to follow along and start from x section. I just like doing it in piano sheets even when they're solo because those stick out more than double barlines. They're not actually necessary (and probably aren't worth it for smaller pieces anyways, mainly just larger ones). I think some have claimed that it is uncustomary but there's no hard rule on NSM
-m17 beat 1 these notes are certainly much more standard than the last time there was as a similar rhythm. Was this done to lead into beat 2 better for the melody?
I felt that the melody sticks out more in this half, so I wanted it to be different. I'm open to making changes though!
-m20 manually move the "x" accidental up so it's not colliding with the gliss
I just lowered both glissandos and moved the accidentals to the left so that they're still on the same line
-m9 move the mf and cresc. just a little bit higher
-m10 increase the distance between the staffs, as the forte later in this message is scrunched
-m13 beat 3.25 given how wide the space is, I think you could manually move some stuff so that the roll isn't so scrunched against beat 3 and the #.
-m21 move the p slightly to the right to center on beat 1 in the RH
-m45 widen this system just enough to center the p between staffs and to give the bottom RH layer a little more breathing room
Feedback def skewed on the aesthetic side but hope this helps! Very cool arrangement
Thank you! These changes were made, and I also adjusted the length of the glisses in m16/17 and m20/21. In addition to that, I made some changes with the dubstep parts to try and emphasize the kick and snare more, it is slightly more consistent (e.g. beat 2 of m14 and 18 are the same now, although I kept beat 3 different), and I changed the G#'s on beats 2.5/2.75 of measures 15/19 to B's
