DarkeSword Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hey guys. I have kind of a big request. I often get emails from people asking for sheet music for Ancient Hero, my Wind Waker remix. I always have to turn them down because, well, I wrote it using Piano Roll in FLStudio. I could export MIDI, but even then, it's not really a feasible arrangement for wind band or orchestra to play. I always feel bad turning them down, because it would be cool for kids to play VGM in school. I'd like to request someone to take my Wind Waker arrangement and do a full wind band or orchestra treatment for it, with a properly written score including dynamics, tempo, etc. I'd do it myself, but I have neither the time, the tools, nor the experience required to properly arrange something for a large ensemble. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abadoss Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Do you have a deadline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 I don't have a deadline. This is basically just something I want made up and I have that I can send to people upon request. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I can do that. I can produce a Finale file as well as a .pdf of the sheet music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabond23 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I know this is kinda random, but Mixcraft 5 lets you view the virtual instrument tracks as sheet music instead of just a piano roll. Its only good for midi instruments though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its only good for midi instruments though. There's a difference between Sheet Music made out of a MIDI and Sheet Music. I don't think any converter would give you "real" sheet music out of a MIDI. (just note lengths and pitches) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gario Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Hey DS - shoot me a PM with the MIDI and I can score it in Sibelius 6, if you'd like. Get all the dynamics, break it into parts, all that good stuff if you need it. Or I could dictate it from the Mp3, but that would take understandably longer .

DarkeSword Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 Oh, my bad. Sorry man, i forget not everyone is still a novice in this music world like myself. No worries. Also, Abadoss is taking a shot at this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gario Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Ah, so you don't need anyone? Sad, I was looking forward to scoring your music, DS... Ah well, I'm sure Abadoss has it under control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 Giving this a bump because I don't think Abadoss has made any progress on it. Anyone else want to take a stab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifthom Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd happily take a stab. Currently working on Wind Waker music quite extensively for my own project, and I'd be able to create sheet music for each instrument as a pdf, as well as a mastersheet that covers all... Currently working with FL Studio 9, if that's enough to read what you have? Then I have an old copy of Sibelius to write the sheet music out in. If you could email a midi/FL file i'm happy to go from that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you capable of actually arranging the piece for either wind ensemble and/or percussion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abadoss Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Ah, damnit... Now I feel like a douche. I'll still try, but if someone beats me to it, no worries. Shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifthom Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I'd be capable... Havent played in a big band like that since I left college but that's not what daunts me. Sibelius, The program I was going to use is on an old laptop (my old college one) and I fetched it out of the cupboard to find it wont turn on. So that's all my old college chemistry notes gone If I can find the disk it wont be a problem but I havent seen it in years and about two house moved... Sorry.

LucasFlicky Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 orchestra is my specialty, if you hand a midi file and describe the dynamics and nuances. i can do it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted January 3, 2015 Author Share Posted January 3, 2015 Giving this a bump because I'm still interested in someone doing this. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) I might give it a shot. We'll see if it works out; at the very least, I hear every single component in the mix clearly enough to notate it, and I'm using noteflight, which lets me play back what I notated.

Tuberz McGee Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Hey. I study classical composition, and a tonne of my course is to actually arrange and make good looking typesetting. If you sent me a MIDI I could do it probably within the week. Without MIDI possibly in a month. Just offering that possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) I'm currently through it about 3/4ths of the way if you wanted to know (started yesterday). Edited January 5, 2015 by timaeus222 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Okay, I finished the main compositional part of it, along with dynamics and all that Italian stuff. It's pretty darn close to how you originally intended it, IMO. Gonna keep revising it and making it look better/more presentable for now. It's worth noting that it's 36 pages for the convenience of not turning back pages. I'm also recomposing and re-mixing a demo track of the result if you wanna hear.

timaeus222 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Haven't really forgotten about this; just busy. But right now I'm really just working on the track demo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
