Submissions for the Next Update 2

[Olimar12345]

Post a maximum of 3 Submissions.

1) Make a SINGLE post with your three pieces. Any other posts will be deleted. (We have a general questions topic) Discussions about arrangements should take place in individual threads.
2) Submit sheets using ONLY dropbox. It's more efficient and safer than mediafire.
3) Put separate links for all your files (MUS, Midi, and PDF) for each sheet.
4) Before posting, be sure that your sheets are in tip-top shape (i.e. formatted to perfection, well arranged, etc.). This is NOT the place to ask updaters to fix things for you. This is.
5) Your post will be edited with feedback.


Here are the Formatting Rules. Please read & follow them, it makes things easier and it makes the site look more professional. If a sheet is not formatted properly, we may not even bother to look.

Please provide PDF, MUS, and MIDI format, and make sure to write the arranger name in your post, if it is not your own username. Just to avoid mix-ups.

If you are submitting a replacement, be sure to check out the New Guidelines for properly crediting the arranger.

[Zunawe]

[GB] Pokémon Red/Blue Version - "Surf" (Replacement for "Surf Theme")
[MUS] [MIDI] [PDF] [YouTube][/url]

Olimar12345: Try this out. Also remember that you don't get more than three voices in GB music.


[GB] Pokémon Red/Blue Version - "Oak's Laboratory" (Replacement for "Oak's Lab")
[MUS] [MIDI] [PDF] [YouTube][/url]

Olimar12345: The inner voice is almost entirely incorrect. Also, staccatissimo markings DO NOT mean to shorten the note length. Use a smaller note value if you want a shorter note.

[GB] Pokémon Red/Blue Version - "Victory Road" (Replacement for "Indigo Plateau")
[MUS] [MIDI] [PDF] [YouTube][/url]

Olimar12345: You have notated more voices than are actually present. Thin it back out to the original pls. Also missing dynamic(s).

Zunawe: Apologies. It's been a while. I'll make sure to look through everything again eventually. However, I've been getting busier, so don't prioritize me.

[Yugi]

Olimar12345: To prevent future formatting errors, use this template file. Simply edit the file info and time/key accordingly per arrangement. For these, copy and paste them onto the template. I'll commence reviewing your arrangements once you do this.

Yugi: It okay if I only convert the MUS files, and then convert the other two when the sheet is accepted? Because making files for all three is pretty tedious and I don't want to have to do it multiple times.

Olimar12345: Yes, this is fine.

Yugi: Jewel Temptation is updated. Haven't done anything about the other two though.

EDIT: hey olimar

are you there

can you please look at jewel temptation while I fix the other two

Olimar12345: Missing the copyright info. Also, split your composers' names into two lines, and rather than separate them with a comma, use an ampersand. Watch out for finale nuisances like in measure 5. The layers' unison have separated the accidental and it now looks like a double flat. I believe the patch for this came in Finale2014, so in earlier versions the only thing you can do is move one of them behind the other using the "Accidental Mover Tool" in the special tools.

Bloop: Oh wow, I always forget that or something. Also is the ampersand a requirement? I've always done ut like this, and it has been accepted multiple times.
I've got Finale 2014, so I'll be able to fix that ^^

EDIT: Fixed!

Olimar12345: I guess the ampersand isn't really required, it just looks nicer imo. Anyway, it is fine now, and I'll accept it. I might do a few ocd formatting things later, idk.


Francis Battle
[MUS]
[MID]
[PDF]

Bloop: This version of Francis Battle is a solo version, but if possible, I'd like to replace the duet version with this one. The duet version isn't that great and the solo version doesn't really look like it.

Olimar12345: Yeah, replacing the duet seems okay.
-Incorrect bass from the last half of measure 16 until 25, then 26-28.

That might be the only thing wrong with it, actually.

Olimar12345:
-Incorrect bass in measures 1-2.
-Missing harmony in the first two measures RH.
-Remove both lower C's in measures 3, 7, 11, & 15.
-Missing harmony on the up-beats of the LH from 3-18, 23-26, then 31-50.
-Up-beat chords in the RH in measures 19 and 21 should be F minor in first inversion (Ab - C - F bottom-up), then C minor in second inversion in measures 20 and 22 (G - C - Eb bottom-up). Surprisingly, you do this correctly in measures 27-30.

There's probably more, but lets start with this stuff.

Olimar12345:
-The arrangement overall has too much voice/hand crossing and doubled notes in hands. Go through it and weed out all the things written for both hands and make a decision of which hand will play what. An easy way to fix this is to play it at a piano and adjust it to how you play it.
-Try to be consistent with your layer voices. Sometimes have one, sometimes you have two, other times you have four. Just try make it consistent throughout sections.
-Using the pedal might be helpful in places of this arrangement.
-The last eighth note in measure 68 should be a Db in the staff.
-You've got two hands playing the same note in measures 69-71. I'd suggest moving the Eb down an octave in the LH.


[WII] Super Mario Galaxy 2 – "Clock Time Attack" – spitllama [MUS]

Olimar12345:
-Use a slur mark to emphasize the weight of the notes not marked with a staccato mark (measures 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17).
-Change the Eb's in measure 16 to D#'s to correct the harmony.
-You're missing another voice that plays in harmony with the RH from 10-17.
-Add the upper octave of G's to the RH from measures 34-37.
-The 16th note pick ups into measure 18 in the RH are extremely demanding. Fast repeated notes at this tempo in this fashion aren't something you usually ask pianists to do (the wrists work on a Z-axis, not an X-axis). I would recommend leaving out a voice. Cut either the last bit of the melody or the pick ups.
-At 42 the LH should be planing perfect fifths, not octaves.
-Change the C# in 35 to a Db, and add a courtesy accidental to the F natural. Also add a courtesy accidental to the C natural and D natural in 36. Do this every time this melody happens.
-Move everything to the first layer if there is only one layers' worth of stuff in said section lol.


Olimar12345: Go ahead and throw in a couple more since we didn't get any of yours in the last update.

spit: Great

Spoiler

Olimar12345: Formatting Guidelines. At a glance I see a non-bold title and composers' names, non-italicized arranger, and "Composed by" text is missing. Other odd things I noticed were the double bar-line to the left of measure 4, the text measure numbers (?)(my bad), and the section at the end that had everything in the LH in layer two, but nothing in layer 1 (why not keep everything in layer 1?). Let me know when these issues are resolved and I will continue reviewing your arrangements.

Maelstrom That's the only weird one. I can't believe I didn't notice it. I'll fix it in 5. Fixed.

Olimar12345:
-Remove the staccato marks from measures 17 though the end of the piece.
-Remove the lower octave from the LH in measures 24-26.
-Why is the rhythm in 25 & 26 different than the one preceding it? It doesn't change in the recording. Revert it.
-Move everything in the LH second layer (measures 19-26(excluding 23)) to the first layer.
-The bass voice in measures 9-16 should be notated differently. Combine the second and third eighth notes, as well as the sixth and seventh eigth notes, to make quarter notes. This will be much easier to read.
-Remove the double bar-line to the left of measure 4.

Maelstrom: All fixed and links updated.

Olimar12345:
-The last eighth note in measure 2 (LH) should be an F.
-The last two eighth notes in measure 3 should be Fb - Eb (takes us to Db minor).
-The second eighth note in measure 26 should be an F.
-As for the RH...well, there is actually a lot of harmony missing. Here, I think I got it all for you.

Maelstrom: Thanks, but I got finale '11 I'll see if I can make the changes in notepad. And what happened to measures 17 and 18?

Olimar12345: If you want to make the changes to a file you can view on finale2011, you could always pull up notepad2012 alongside it and switch between tabs to view it.

What's up with 17-18? I am away from my PC now, so I can't see d:

Maelstrom: The harmony was added above instead of below. It's fixed and the links have been updated.

Olimar12345: Slow the recording down and listen to it. What I had notated was correct. If it helps, this is the exact file I am listening to.

Mael: I guess you're right. It just didn't sound right.
Links have been reverted. Anything else?

Olimar12345: I think it's fine now. Accepted.

Olimar12345: Oh my god your mus files are horrendous. Review the

Formatting Rules.

Jegilmer: I'm sorry! I've read the formatting rules and I'm following them in Sibelius 6. I'm a Sibelius user, so I only have Finale Notepad (which doesn't let you edit crap), so whenever I import the XML file it looks terrible. I would love for you to review them, and obviously my MUS files aren't acceptable at the moment. Do you have anyone you would recommend to fix up the MUS files for me?

Jegilmer: Also, Are we allowed to post more than once (post 3 and then post 3 more)? I want to say I've seen it done before, but I don't know if it additional posts would be considered.

Olimar12345: No. The only time I have seen something like this, it was from Spitllama, and he was submitting arrangements for another user (with their permission).

Jegilmer: Alrighty. Looking forward to some feedback!

[JDMEK5]

Let's try this again. I think I fixed everything you mentioned before but if a note or two is still off in either run, a little assistance if/whenever you could get the chance would be hugely appreciated. If it's not accurate now, I'm stumped.

[3DS] Pokémon X/Y - "Battle! (Wild Pokémon)"
[MUS] [MIDI] [PDF] [YouTube][/url]

Olimar12345:
-The intro seems to work, except for the LH's 5+ octave leap. Try to do something about that.
-The chord in measure 20 should be held through measure 21 until the pick up.
-At least the third is playing with the RH from 22-25 (C from 22-23, A from 24-25).
-The last three eighth notes in the LH of measure 9 should be descending: Bb - A - F.
-The bass changes in measure 17, which you didn't write.
-The LH in 22 to the end needs some work. For the first four measures of that, it outlines the triad of the harmony ([C - Eb - Ab - C - Eb - Ab - C - Eb] for 22-23, then down to [A - C - F - A - C - F - A - C] for 24-25). At 26 it changes, so listen carefully.

Despite the issues above, this one is quite close to being there!

JDMEK5:
I went through again and I believe I addressed everything you mentioned. Between slowing it down and changing the key of the original version, I think I got the bass more accurate in those spots than before.

[NES] - Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! - Boxing
[MUS] [MIDI] [PDF]

Olimar12345:
-The upper-octave accents in the LH are off in measures 8, 10, 12, and 14.
-Over all, your note lengths are incorrect. Many notes should be shorter than you have written. The bass can actually help you with this. Since it's all eighth notes, just count how many eighth notes play for the duration of the note in question. For example, the first chord in the RH should be a quarter note.
-The last eighth note "E" in the RH measure 18 should be a "D."
-Change the title on the second page and make in not bold.
-You are also missing several grace notes throughout the piece.

K-NiGhT: I'll get on this ASAP.
