I feel like I messed up something very simple for this sheet . . .

Anyway, since I have Notepad, I'll have to have a little formatting help.
 - I tried to copy and paste the music into the NSM template to get the mini-titles on subsequent pages, but too much got messed up
 - Lots of overlapping junk when I have multiple voices

Thank you in (game boy) advance

I feel like I messed up something very simple for this sheet . . .

What do you mean? Something in particular?

Anyway, a few passing comments (we'll get to formatting in a bit) -
- I think the key signature would be better off as E minor
- The offbeat thirds you have written in at the beginning (G-B) sound more like open fifths (E-B) to me
- Consider playability as well as sound - having both hands play in the low bass register and overlap in the second to last system on page 2 won't play easily nor sound good

Ah - it was a dynamic marking, but I quickly edited the files once I remembered.

Everything's been changed - there are sure to be lots more edits so I just changed it in the .mus file for now.

- Consider playability as well as sound - having both hands play in the low bass register and overlap in the second to last system on page 2 won't play easily nor sound good

I moved it an octave up - sounds good, more playable

Cool cool. This looks like a pretty solid arrangement, I'll get back to you shortly with formatted files

[Latios212]

Doing some formatting for you now. Some things I noticed that are included in these here files:
- Sharps were missing on some notes, like the G# in m. 12
- A# should be spelled as Bb (flatted 9th, centered around A) similar to how Fn is used for the other melodic phrases
- Rest positions are a bit wonky, and also in this sheet it would be best if they were always shown
- m. 25-27 (and 51-53) bass was wrong
- m. 29/55 beat 2 (layer 2) should be An instead of G#

Other than that, looks great! Please have a look and review the fixes.

[Jack]

Awesome - thanks so much!

Looks great, the only thing I can see is that since we're being so meticulous with note lengths, the E in bar 57 is a semibreve rather than a minim.  Since you can't edit the musx I'll just make that tiny change for you.  If you're happy with that change then I'll accept this.

[Jack]

I'm very happy with this! Thanks for your help and for a speedy submission process.

[Libera]

No problem!
