Welp, never played the game, but here's a song. Apparently a boss theme.

omg wind temple.

I'm not sure why you arranged the echoes in the song. It doesn't sound that well on a piano, and reading it is a hell. It also makes the sheet pretty messy.
By the way, I believe the notes of the strings are F - F - Gb and F - F - F. I'm not sure though. The trills don't sound that good either, but I don't know what else to do about it.

Bar 1/4: There's a pianissimo in bar 1, but a (hidden) piano in bar 4. I guess that the pianissimo was meant to be a piano.
Bar 4: I think a ottava marking in this bar would make it easier to read.
Bar 13: Is it possible to play that first note? I don't have hands that big. I should put the bottom F an octave higher. Probably also do this with the other bars like this one.
Bar 35: A wild Forte appeared!

I disagree.  10th intervals are challenging to hit, but I see them all the time.  It's fine.

lol XD

EDIT:  I also feel like all melody should be an octave higher.  More tinkly.

Wooo feedback! Thanks Bloop!

I feel like the echoes are really necessary :/ But, if it would make things clearer, I could move the echo into another layer. What do you think?

Wait what section are we talking about?

QuoteBar 1/4: There's a pianissimo in bar 1, but a (hidden) piano in bar 4. I guess that the pianissimo was meant to be a piano.
The hidden piano is just for playback sake-- the left hand gets drowned out without the hidden piano, but on the same channel, the left hand is too loud

QuoteBar 4: I think a ottava marking in this bar would make it easier to read.
Sure I'll put that in. I actually started with an 8va here, but Bespinben, Slow, and Shado said that three ledger lines is not worth worrying about.

QuoteBar 13: Is it possible to play that first note?
Yep! I tried it before-hand. I also justified it with the fact that Bespinben uses these intervals in his arrangements.

QuoteBar 35: A wild Forte appeared!
xD Oops. Muchas gracias

You're absolutely right! :o

Maybe that's a solution, but it still would be pretty weird to play.

The one with the trill strings.

I meant that it's a hidden pianissimo, and not a piano. Doesn't that make it softer?

Quote from: spitllama on December 30, 2012, 03:36:48 PMSure I'll put that in. I actually started with an 8va here, but Bespinben, Slow, and Shado said that three ledger lines is not worth worrying about.
I just start worrying about the F.

Oh. Alright.

.-. I'm looking at it and it's a hidden piano on measure 5, not pianissimo. The visible pianissimo for measures 1-4 is intentional.

And okay I'll fix the rest! Thanks.

Oh, I didn't open the sheet and I thought that the pianissimo was hidden. I didn't knew if the pianissimo was intentional or not, so I pointed it out.
