                    Re: Xoon 5: The Transition Submissions Open

                    Finally submitted my file. Uh, here's some important info on it.

                    A few technical aspects I'd like to address:

                    M23 - Initially the colored jumps preceding the 8ths were more prominent, but they soon crossed over as the 8ths segued into predominance. In fact it's actually a simplified pattern because the colored notes don't quite align at the point of the 8th's culmination.

                    M32B3 - Unfortunately this trill alone wasn't sufficient once the other sounds were introduced. However, since the 8ths don't occur every other note like a standard runningmen configuration, placing them as single steps would mar fluency since they'd be misconstrued with sections of the trill. Jumps were the best option by default.

                    M36B3 - While Jordan was playing this segment he did so by running his thumb from the far left bass notes to around (perhaps a bit before) middle C which is exactly 24 notes. Now considering this, its unintelligibility, plus the assist tick, and producing a concise number for the sake of pattern configuration, exactly 20 notes seemed best.

                    M37 - Most bass notes were omitted here because they detracted from the notes I wanted to emphasize.

                    M65 - Sadly this jump stream presented a sort of stepping impasse for me. The bass and treble clef aligned terribly with the bass preceding the treble by a notable margin. Since I didn't like the prospect of a dump pattern (I tried it actually) the only solution was to place whatever sound was more prominent/crisp. Obviously this was the treble clef (another best-by-default situation).

                    M72 - I didn't layer the two potential jumps because one followed the last single note which I wanted to accentuate and adding a subsequent jump would have marred the effect.


                    Took me long enough .

                          The songs that he picks to step should answer that question.

                            Well if a section's accuracy may seem questionable to a player I wanna explain how it's necessary.


                            It's a very... well.. "unique" file. I hope the guys like it.

                            An embarrassingly-long 15 hours or so. . I'm not too happy about that. I'm too much of a perfectionist. I'm into details that 99% of people aren't gonna notice.
