... Are my arrangements really that accurate?

Anything to say at all?..?

[Jompa]

... Are my arrangements really that accurate?

Yes, they are.

[JDMEK5]

.. Oh. ...  ..... .. Cool.

[wariopiano]

They are very accurate! (in my humble opinion!)

[JDMEK5]

Thanks! I wasn't expecting them to be 100%... (I can hear most things, but some things sound sorta sketchy sometimes..)

[wariopiano]

I like the snow mountain u did from super mario 64!
I see u are doing oil ocean from sonic 2 for me.
thank you!

[JDMEK5]

No problem! It's nice to see some feedback about my work. It feels strange when you get no comment at all, good or bad.

[Dudeman]

^ I know what you mean.
Also, Snow Mountain is very well done! I just have one part that I think needs to be added in: in the last 4 measures before the repeat, there is a horn in the background that plays a C-G-A-G run twice and I don't hear that. Does that make any sense?
EDIT: The horn plays from 1:22 to 1:27 in your youtube link.

[JDMEK5]

There. Changed it. You mean like that?

[Dudeman]

Eh...no. The notes should be C4-G3-A5-G4, with the G4 being held as a whole note. The pattern repeats in the next two measures. (Hopefully you know what I mean...if I'm not making any sense, you can just leave it out. )

didnt u do the desert theme and battle theme from new super mario bros wii?
i thinku should do the beach theme!

[JDMEK5]

Yes, but neither was accurate at all... I might go back and redo them if I get the chance.

Beach huh? Seems easy enough... But everything in it's proper perspective; I have to finish requests and stuff first.
I'm done the MIDI for your oil ocean by the way. I should be done the MUS soon.

[JDMEK5]

There. Done. How's that?

Unfortunately, the percussion keeps the beat for basically the entire song, which you can't do with piano.
So count hard, because it's easy to lose timing.

EDIT: Changed. Should be a lot better now.

The full title is "Sonic the Hedgehog 2" not "Sonic 2"

I feel as though the first notes should be an eighth notes worth of pickup.

Have you tried adding that melody that plays a hair after the end of the chords at 4-7?

I think you're adding too many notes at the ends of the bass lines.

The bass pattern about 5 measure from the end that lasts for 3 measures gets higher, not lower. There are incorrect notes too.

You're using Eighth Eighth-Tied-Eighth Eighth, when you really should be using Eighth Quarter Eighth.

Fixed.

I feel as though the first notes should be an eighth note's worth of pickup.

I thought that too, but I thought it would mess up the timing if I tried.. But it worked!

Not till now. But it adds tons of the original feel to the piece. I should have put that in from the beginning.

I did that to do it by-the-book. But sure, it's simpler to put it the other way. Done.

So, how is it now?

I need a custom layout to make the mus though..
