I am inputting notes into Musescore and getting music out, so I guess I'm doing something right? (It's nothing I've written, it's stuff I've already got in books/on the computer*). I am also revising/learning new music theory on the internet, and wow intervals are confusing**. I'm going to have to look at them again.

I played some Dragon's Dogma for the first time in a week. I am still mad about that wight fight. However, I loaded myself (and my pawn) up with arrows, and am off to slay a dragon. I didn't get very far, because I am partially an idiot, and all I have done is talk to the Dragonforged. He gave me some armour, so I guess he's not all bad (I can't equip the silver bangles, though, because I lose more than I gain from them. I suppose I could leg it back to Gran Soren (as I'll be going that way anyway) and level them up at the armourer's???)

WHATEVER.

I am level thirty six (out of 200) I think I've done one of the side quests (saving them for the next save file). I can kill a chimera in five minutes as opposed to fifteen now! (Cyclopes are still causing me a major, major pain in the arse every time whhhhhhhhhy however they should be easier by now you encounter them firrrrrsttttt).

Also I am unable to make my Arisen jump on anything or climb up it. I think she clung to a Cyclops' leg once, but never since. I think I play this game with the RPG equivalent of button bashing, and nobody is surprised, right.

Undecided what to play after this. Do I finish FFIX, or do I have a bash at Breath of Fire? (Realistically it should be BoF, because it's not my game but really IDK).

*I will have to have a day of The Printening. Because swapping between windows is doing my nut.

**I came away from school with THE most basic music theory, since I didn't do GCSE music (I wish I had). Though as I went through later lessons, it occurred to me that I did pick up a bunch of stuff from the multitudinous guitar books I read as a teenager \o/
All right, thanks to [personal profile] beccatoria, I have spent a day and a half messing about with MuseScore. Which is a fabulous FREE piece of software, which you can use to compose music on. Well, that's what it's meant for. I'm going to use it for the playing of music and then recording it and doing stuff with it and posting it to the internet so people can point and laugh at me listen to it.

Which is why I'm here! I've got a buttload of sheet music on my computer so I've been transcribing some of it into Musescore to get my head around how the program works (because my grasp of music theory is weak, aside from anything else).

This is, like, the fiftieth thing I've done, and it's not brilliant, and it lasts about thirty seconds. It's about as much of Terra's Theme as I could deal with transcribing (tired + program not doing what I want it to = grumpy Jae). So here it is: https://soundcloud.com/tubelined/terras-theme-ffvi-incomplete

(better user picture coming when I can find one) found a better, more vaguely relevant one!

Feedback is good, if you've got it. If you haven't, no worries. Just wanted to share like the overeager puppy I am.
