Original Song (NES):

I realized that the console for Yoshi is GameBoy on this site, but I'm not sure how different that version is (except for being higher pitched):

Also, I have a question. If I were arranging this piece for somebody I know, could I put "For (insert name here)" somewhere on the sheet?

[FEZ PEZ]

(Bump) Wondering if anyone has noticed this yet...

[Maelstrom]

Also, I have a question. If I were arranging this piece for somebody I know, could I put "For (insert name here)" somewhere on the sheet?

Probably not. I'm not sure how they'd feel about their name being put on a sheet published on the internet. In addition, we don't really do that here.

As for the sheet, you have one massive problem: half note = 150 is wayyy to fast. Halve all note values and put it in 4/4 with q=150

[FEZ PEZ]

Probably not. I'm not sure how they'd feel about their name being put on a sheet published on the internet. In addition, we don't really do that here.

The person I'm arranging this for is my brother and I would use his alias, not his real name, so he's okay with that. And I've seen some sheets that have "special thanks to (insert name here)" on them, so why is this much different?

When people write that, it means they helped out with arranging the sheet. It's not a dedication of any sort.

[FEZ PEZ]

When people write that, it means they helped out with arranging the sheet. It's not a dedication of any sort.

Well, I meant in terms of Ninsheetmusic policy, and the format of the sheets. Couldn't "person 1" who wrote "Special thanks to (person 2)" have written "Arranged by (person 1) and (person 2)?"
It seems to me that if it's acceptable to write "special thanks to (person 2)" if they helped out a little to write the sheet, it would be acceptable to write "special thanks to (my brother)" (or something of the like) if he inspired me to make this sheet. And, by consequence, helped out.
Sorry if I sound demanding, I just don't understand the issue.

[Maelstrom]

Nah, not really. The special thanks generally means someone who gave ideas or maybe a helped a little, but not enough to be counted as a co arranger.
Completely forgot that was a thing, so thanks, Yug.

[FEZ PEZ]

Nah, not really. The special thanks generally means someone who gave ideas or maybe a helped a little, but not enough to be counted as a co arranger.

In that case, it's fine to put "special thanks to (my  brother)" on the sheet, correct? Someone who "gave ideas or maybe helped a little" isn't very definitive.

[Latios212]

I understand what you want to do, but to clarify what Maelstrom said, the "special thanks" field on NSM sheets is for people who have contributed musically to the arrangement. Like for helping write out a certain section.

[FEZ PEZ]

As for the sheet, you have one massive problem: half note = 150 is wayyy to fast. Halve all note values and put it in 4/4 with q=150

Fixed.

Follow the guidelines on whose name to include. There should be the composer(s) and the arranger(s). Nothing more.

[Maelstrom]

This arrangement suffers from one main acute problem: a lack of voice separation.
For example, measure 6 should really look like this:

and measure 10 should look something like this:

Spoiler

[close]

Go through the entire piece and, when you hear the voices doing their own separate thing, like 11-17. Fix that throughout the entire piece, and then we'll check this further. Just remember to only split then when they go different directions, and not in places like m3-5.

Oh, and add measure numbers, respace the measures to have less white space, and maybe shrink the left margin?

[Maelstrom]

bump for arranger
