What key/time signature is this song in?

[Maelstrom]

I guess this doesn't really count, but didn't warrant making a new topic.
So, how do I get the dotted-eighth, dotted-eighth, dotted-eighth, dotted-eighth, eighth, eighth with staccato marks?
Tying it for proper note barring takes away from the staccato effect.

[MaestroUGC]

You can just put a rest for the value of the tied note and put staccato marks on the first note.

[Maelstrom]

But it looks weird with a dotted 8th, 16th, 8th rest, quarter, 16th rest, dotted 8th.  That's why I asked.

[MaestroUGC]

It's a clipped note anyway, you can't have it both ways.

[MaestroUGC]

Or just use eighth notes and rests.

[Maelstrom]

Or just use eighth notes and rests.

That sounds good.

No it doesn't. Staccato has absolutely nothing to do with a note's length. It is a stylistic mark. If you want a shorter note, make the note vault smaller, otherwise, what you said would be correct. Just be sure to use proper rhythm groupings according to the time signature used.

Um, actually, staccato can well and truly mean that the note should be played shorter, but traditionally, staccato has been treated as a stylistic mark in classicl music. But that just means the mark has more meanings, like a lot of other articulations also have.
Most people would say that staccato means that the note should be shortened, and I'd say that's what it means first and foremost today. But I'd also say that what you're saying isn't wrong.

Is this supposed to be in C major or C minor?
[MUS]

C major is the tonic chord, but it's obviously a c minor scale. wut

[Maelstrom]

link doesn't work. 

[FireArrow]

works for me. 

[FierceDeity]

Of course it does, it's your account, haha. You probably linked to the file as you would access it from your own dropbox; make sure you actually share it.

[Jompa]

C major is the tonic chord

Then there's your answer.

[FireArrow]

Try the link now I guess.

[Maelstrom]

Pretty sure that's C with a lot of accidentals
