Quote from: Dudeman on November 24, 2016, 12:19:47 PMI think it's really just that: there's a 2/4 measure every 8 bars in the opening section. It's not frequent enough to warrant a completely different time signature imo.
Yeah, I felt like that was the case. I just got confused by the bassline.

 - key signature, all natural works fine (no major sections where I put a lot of accidentals), maybe E Minor, but then the LH would have naturals running on the F from 0:35 - 1:06; the trumpet in 0:38 - 0:43 seems to be in B flat but then the violin (?) directly after has a B natural? I have NotePad so I couldn't just change it whenever I wanted to...
 - time signature for first 30 seconds (plus beat placement and BPM), the majority if the piece is in 4/4 (with 3/4 starting at 2:26); I attempted to arrange it in the same 4/4 timing as the rest of the piece, it worked fine but I decide to put a bunch of caesura in to compensate, wondering if there's a better alternative.
As aforementioned I use NotePad so if you want to put some special changes onto the arrangement that would be great!

I get the feeling that this isn't in 4/4 time. 12/8 maybe?

It's a march with triplets, although I'm hearing some places with what sounds like sixteenths in there as well. I'd use 12/8 personally.

If I was going the march route, I'd def use 6/8 over 12/8.

The key for this song is weird, and after discussing it with Latios, I think it isn't what I have written, but something else...

I put that it starts as Dmaj, then changes to Abmaj at 0:26, and changes again to Gmaj at 0:42, and back to Dmaj when it loops at 0:45.

If someone could double-check for me that'd be cool

Might go for a hard song, and GT3's OST is pretty damn great. I'm assuming C Minor, 4/4 and around 120 BPM tempo.

I think it might be in a D key signature, but full notation might say otherwise.

Also I love this song now.

2nd most obscure Kirby game, next to BS Kirby's Toy Box; this game, however, is less known. The song starts at 0:59. This was my best source. It's tricky finding out the key because there's no bass and the song only lasts 2 measures.

Don't know if you've already sorted it out but I would say A major as that's what it's in for two phrases out of three, then it's F minor. Maybe just not having a key might be better?
innit

Yeah, I think it would be better without one. Thanks, Andy!

I wrote it out, and it feels like the whole thing's in F Minor. There's just some naturals/flats to throw you off.
