1. Didja accidentally blow through the whole, "We're using our real names" thing on registration? No problem, just send me (Mike) a Conversation message and I'll get you sorted, by which I mean hammered-into-obedient-line because I'm SO about having a lot of individuality-destroying, oppressive shit all over my forum.

You Guys Still Want This?

Discussion in 'Score Study Resources' started by Mike Verta, Jul 2, 2021.

  1. Guess who finally made it to the back of the storage facility?*

    Do you guys still want this?

    Somebody was talking about doing a proper Sibelius/Finale version of this score, if I recall...

  2. "Do you guys still want this?"
    If you mean getting your Forbidden warrior as a score then yeah. It would be awesome to study it.

  3. But before this will happen somebody has to transfer Mikes score from paper to Sibelius/Finale. I guess so ...

  6. If this is the only problem maybe we could do it as a community effort?
     
  7. Yes, it would be extremely useful as there is a high-quality recording to accompany this. Mike, you should be able to make a very useful class out of this too (I know you've already covered it somewhat). It would be great to release the pdf section and let people come up with questions that could then be discussed. Sibelius would be a nice perk, but just scanning the pdf would be enough to study. The HUGE advantage with Sibelius is that you can highlight sections or individual instrument lines for study and discussion. For example, what do the woodwinds sound like by themselves? What would the piece sound like without them?, etc. This is the next best thing to a live instrument class. And particularly as it was mixed by Shawn Murphy there's much to learn about what happened between the dots on the page and the playback we hear through speakers.
     
  8. How is that even a question Mike, of course we want it!
     
  9. Oh..... you actually did it !

    @Mike Verta
    I was the one who offered to do the typesetting. From the posting of 1m2


    I'll make you a deal: If you can brave your storage facility and wade thru any perversions you have in there (Dead bodies, Blow up Sex dolls, MAGA hats) I'll typeset any, or even the whole, Forbidden Warrior score in Sibelius for you, and send them to you. Free. You get the typeset scores.Just scan them and I'll copy exactly what you wrote into Sibelius for you.

    Same for the Batman.

    If I said it....I'll do it. Man's gotta keep his word.
    Currently I am on a rather large project that runs thru mid-August to start of Sept.
    After that I can get on this.

    Perhaps it could be a combination of group and myself.
    If the scores were scanned and uploaded anyone eager enough could begin the note entry.

    Then, if that person left the Sibelius file there, I could use that as a starting point.
    Obviously I would create a unified house style for the whole score so it would like a published score.


    Now we need to make a poll.

    What does Mike have more of in his storage facility:

    MAGA hats, or sex dolls.
     
  10. Aproved. Taking the hats and the dolls.
     
  11. That leaves me with the dead bodies. Sheesh, thanks guys.
     
  12. I offer myself to collaborate with the note entry if needed
     
  13. I'd love to participate as well!
    I started to do some work for a french publisher a few months ago.
    I work on Dorico but I still have my Sibelius 7 licence if needed!

  14. I think it would be good for us to do the note entry in whatever program we wanted and send it to a single person as MusicXML to organise a final consistent layout.

  15. Definitely!
    It's part of my job for the french publisher I was talking about.
    I've mostly been working on contemporary music from awfully written manuscript so I'm sure reading mike should be a piece of cake!
