I don't see anything wrong.....without the Original.
Youtube hasen't been working for me
Great Job!

[Nebbles]

Woops! Here's the original:

I know this isn't ninmidimusic, but there is something terribly wrong with the midi. Just give it a listen.
Nice job Nebbles, btw.

Finale for some reason hates arpeggios. Doing the audio for her tumblr post was a pain in the butt.

[Nebbles]

Is there anything possible to do to fix the midi, actually? I mean, a bad midi is gonna affect this getting accepted...

[Bespinben]

I would consider myself pretty good at dealing with Finale's crappy MIDI playback. I'll see what I can do, especially for such an aspiring arranger.

[Nebbles]

Aw, thank you!

[Maelstrom]

Additionally, measure 9 might look a little cleaner if those unnecessary 2nd layer rests were hidden, as they are in measure 20.
And, it might look a little nicer if it were a little smaller. Maybe the % tool could fix that.

edit: And, although it's kind of nitpicky, check your note barring in measure 27-29

[Shadoninja]

Nebbles' editor here.

I see little point in shrinking a sheet needlessly.

You're going to have to be a little more specific about the barring in 27-29

[Maelstrom]

It's not really needless, but it's not that necessary either. The song has very few notes, and, mostly when printed out, it becomes clear that it might look better and more professional to have a somewhat smaller font, although that is not the correct wording.

I suppose more contemporary pieces don't go out of their way to make all 4 beats visible. It's not that complicated of a rhythm, so I guess it's not that necessary. In case you were wondering, the last beat was obscured slightly in the RH.

Especially when I'm all about Midis...

[Nebbles]

How much smaller would you recommend?

[Maelstrom]

idk. I usually apply use the % tool (sorry, not in notepad, idk if you use it) and change it to 90% but just a 95% might work as well.

[Nebbles]

I believe I have Finale 2012 notepad or whatever, so I believe I can just adjust it in there.
