The "Fixing the Sheets" Project - Super Mario 64

The "Fixing the Sheets" Project - Super Mario 64
The "Fixing the Sheets" Project is an organized effort brought to you by the NSM community to bring each and every sheet of music on NinSheetMusic up to the current standard. Some of the target sheets were submitted before any quality standard was required. As a result, some of those sheets are abhorring. In no way does this project forbid replacement submissions from other games/franchises. This is simply a united, organized effort to deal with the substandard sheets one game/category at a time.

This time, we will be focusing on Super Mario 64.

What you need to know:
- If you begin work on a sheet, post here so I can edit this target post with the updated information. This keeps multiple people from working on the same song at the same time.
- Can't arrange? No problem; critique other sheets that either have not been looked at yet, or have just been revised.
- There is no limit to how many sheets you may work on simultaneously, but before you claim you should make sure you will be able to complete all your claims.
- The same rules for crediting replacements apply here.

Here is the [OST] with official names. You can find more about the OST listing [here].

Composer info: Composed by Koji Kondo

This one is probably going to be a bit easier than the Gold / Silver one, since Koji Kondo is the only composer for this game xD

The soundtrack is pretty short too, unless we're also doing the unique tracks from Super Mario 64 DS.

[Tobbeh99]

Do we really need a new topic? Can't we just move the already existing thread over here instead?

Yup lol.
We're fixing the ones in the section currently, and I'm currently unsure if we'll accept new sheets or extend it to SM64DS (but there are a couple wrongly placed in the SM64 section that we'll fix.)

I'm working on getting everything better organized here.

Hey

[Latios212]

PSA:

I know it looks like there's not much to do since most of the sheets already have blue status, but you can help out by helping to critique and check the sheets in the Dropbox folder. It really helps moving the review process along.

The more feedback we get, the faster this will go!

[Sebastian]

I'll take Piranha Plant's Lullaby (Piano). It just needs some very minor fixes.

[FireArrow]

Uh, where's the dropbox folder? I thought the NSM folder was deleted...

[Olimar12345]

I put brackets around it in the op so that it is easier to see.

[FireArrow]

 Oh, it was there the whole time. Thanks for helping the intellectually impaired :J

[Sebastian]

Aren't we adding the new arrangements too?

[Latios212]

Yes, I'll add that in tomorrow.

Now, the moment you've all been waiting for (probably not, but it makes me more excited if I think you might possibly anticipating this). The Medley is complete! This rendition features the Main Theme, Snow Mountain, Dire, Dire Docks, Inside the Castle Walls, Koopa's Road, and the Staff Roll. Note: The version of Dire, Dire Docks currently in the medley is not the version by Latios and MLF; it is a placeholder from the main site until theirs is done.

[Brawler4Ever]

It sounds amazing!

[Tobbeh99]

The Medley:
I'd write all the arrangers in the beginning like:

Arrangers:
Super Mario 64 Main Theme by DonValentino
Snow Mountain by The Deku trombonist, edited by Mariolegofan
etc.
Compiled by TheMarioPianist

Also check the spacing of things, some dynamics are too low almost on the staff lines.

Measure 91: The "come pizzicato". First of I think it's more common to "quasi pizzicato", secondly and more important, I'm guessing your indicating this on measure 91 but it's a bit obscure since the expression lies in between the systems, so one might though it is connected to measure 95 or 96. put it above the right hand staff I think is more clear.
