PianistAko Style
music transcription service
*chuckles* ayos ba sa pangalan ng bagong pakulo ng PianistAko?! lol click the Q's to expand ^__^v
Q. What is this all about?
A. Express Music Sheet or tatawagin natin syang "EMS" is all about OPM Piano Sheet Music / Piano Scores trancription but in a RUSH version. so, for those of you who can't wait for the requested music sheets to be uploaded here at PianistAko, you can opt to avail this service BUT this aint for FREE.Q. Why not free?
A. because i said so... why ask?! hehe kidding aside... normally, the music sheets provided here at PianistAko are transcribed/arranged at my own pace ( hindi mukha okay... pace not face ^_^v )... i made all these music sheets whenever i feel like doing it... in tagalog ginawa ( at ginagawa ko ) lahat ang mga piano pieces na ito kung kailan ko feel gumawa, kung kailan lang ako libre, kung kailan lang ako nasa mood gumawa, basta may free time ako, gumagawa ako ng piyesa sa hindi madalian na paraan... ( ang haba naman nung translation na yan hahaha ) but since this service i'm offering is the RUSH version or MADALIAN or KAILANGAN na ASAP, eh ibang usapan na ito... DEMAND na ito... so kailangan lang may BAYAD... ito ang tinutukoy kong SERVICE CHARGE... aba ang hirap na ng buhay ngayon noh?! kailangan rumaket ako para sulit naman ang eyebags na inaabot ko dito! and besides the money that i'll be getting from this service will be added to my Piano Fund so parang DONATION in a MANDATORY manner hehe ^_^vQ. how is it different from the FREE piano sheet music?
A. sa totoo lang... waLa! except na mas ipa-prioritize kong gawin itong mga songs requested under EXPRESS SHEET MUSIC... if you choose this option, iiwan ko muna yung ginagawa kong piyesa para unahin ang request mo na EMS. same quality of the piano sheet music based on my previous works pero mas uunahin ko itong gawin since may bayad ito at RUSH nga eh... diba?! kelangan ko pa ba i-esplika?! okay hindi na... good! ^_^vQ. how soon PianistAko will be able to finish the requested music sheet under "EMS" mode?
A. it depends on the complexity of the song... but basically it can be as fast as 1 day or within 1 week but no later than 3 weeks ( depende nga rin po sa availability ko... ^_^v ) basta i'll give my estimates/quotations upon receiving your ORDER FORM...if by any chance, i can't make it until deadline, i'll let you know before hand since i have 9 hours of work including breaks + 4 hours travel (back and forth) + 4 hours of free time (after dinner before midnight) + the rest would be: sleeping-bathing-eating-waking up-cleaning-upgrading PianistAko... so imagine my busy life plus PianistAko, PianistAkOST and PianistAkOnline under my belt... whew ^_^v
Q. what kind of songs are you open to "EMS" transcriptions?
A. as much as possible OPM pa rin ( or any songs popularized by our OPM artists ) since these songs/music sheets will also be uploaded here in PianistAko... ( BUT i'm also accepting non-OPM requests din naman, pwede ring other instruments ) the only difference is that i'll alot time and prioritize these music sheets ( EMS ) compared to those songs already been requested and listed on ON QUEUE OPM SHEET MUSIC section.Q. how much will i pay per piano sheet music?
A. sa totoo lang... mahal talaga ang magpagawa ng piyesa. kita ninyo naman kaya halos walang gumagawa ng piano pieces kasi mahal talaga ang singilan tapos ang gagawin mo lang ipho-photocopy mo or isa-scan mo tapos idi-distribute mo na yung piyesa. so ano na nangyari dun sa arranger/transcriptionist? WALA! wala siyang kita. sa labor palang lugi na siya... sa tingin mo sisipagin pa ba siyang gumawa?! HINDI! eh bakit ako gumagawa?! BECAUSE.... hehehe pero since i assume pinoy naman tayong lahat dito ( or atleast Pinoy at heart ) the rate will be based on the song, as a whole ko na siya ie-estimate... compared sa ibang nago-offer ng transcription services na LEAD SHEET lang ang binabayaran ninyo, dito sa EMS... whole song with piano accompaniment, melody and lyrics. mahirap magbigay ng fixed amount kasi baka bigla ninyong i-shutdown ang computer ninyo pag nalaman ninyo kung magkano ang range rate per song... hahahaha... so i'll let you know the amount after i heard the song.pero sige to give you an idea/overview kung magkano ang serbisyong ito...
NORMALLY sa mga ginagawang career ang pagta-transcribe/arrange/notate ng isang song into a sheet music, the rates depend on "how many systems/lines are there per song..." or "how many measures/frames per song?" some charge "per hour basis" etc. at ito ang mas malupit na balita for the LEAD SHEET lang talaga madalas ang ino-offer ng mga music transcriptionist out there... if you don't know what is a lead sheet ito yung parang VOICE PART or MELODY PART lang nung song with lyrics and chords...
ang range ng per SYSTEM/LINE basis sa isang lead sheet music is around $2.50 to $3.00 or higher. kapag per MEASURE/FRAME naman it could range from $0.25 to $0.70 or higher. kapag naman per HOUR $25 to $50 or more... yung iba $50 to $70 above per song... now do the math... imagine ang mahal magpagawa ng piyesa noh?! yung iba for lead sheets palang ang price hindi pa kasama yung piano accompaniment hahahaha =D
pero since mga pinoy naman nga karamihan ang mga naghahanap ng OPM sheet music, EMS will be based per SYSTEM or LINE or at times as a whole piano sheet music. so, ano ba ang hitsura ng system or line na yan... eto yun ( click the image the view )
magkano nga?!
$1.00 to $2.00 per SYSTEM or LINE... very reasonable price! wala pa sa kalingkingan ng sinisingil ng ibang music transcriptionist, tapos hindi lang lead sheet ang ibibigay ko but the whole piano accompaniment with melody notes pa! and this EMS rates eh nakadepende sa difficulty ng song... if i sense na mahirap yung song na pinapagawa ninyo or mabibingi ako ng husto mapakinggan lang yung accompaniment ng song, eh may konting adjustments lang sa total amount but i guarantee you that you'll not be ripped-off in availing EMS ( for piano only huh... kung gagawan ko ng another staff for a different instrument siyempre may dagdag ng konti... konti lang naman... mga 1 million! kaya ba?! hehehe joke... basta may additional kapag may additional instruments... ^_^v )
so, let's say for instance this song na FOREVERMORE by SIDE A. i've transcribed it with 28 SYSTEMS/LINES all in all [ 7 pages with 4 systems/lines per page and 257 measures/frames ( excluding the frames without notes in it ) ] that would be: [ 28 systems x $1.00 = $ 28.00 whole music sheet ]. since piano mismo yung accompaniment dito sa song na ito, no adjustments made na sa price, i give considerations naman. see, it's a lot cheaper compared to those people offering the same service.
paalala: huwag ninyo ako baratin, hindi ako divisoria! lalz.
o ayan may idea ka na... madali lang naman ako kausap... kung sa tingin ko madali naman yung piyesang ipapagawa mo eh di mas mababa yung singil... ganun lang yun kasimple... mas maraming ipapagawa, may additional discount pa akong ibibigay *ang bait ko talaga lol* ^_^v
if you have the available audio that you want me to transcribe for you using EMS then just send me the copy of that song... be sure to send a decent sounding one... or kung wala kayong saved copy sa mga computers ninyo, be sure to attach a youtube link ng song or any links basta hindi na ako maghahagilap pa . 'wag ninyo na akong pahirapan... mahirap na ang gumawa ng piyesa... masyadong ng redundant ang word na MAHIRAP para sa'kin hehehe =p 'wag ninyong ise-send sa akin ang isang audio na mas malakas pa yung ingay sa background na parang may dumaraan na tren or eroplano... 'wag ninyo akong gawing bingi hehehe darating ako sa stage ng pagiging bingi pero hindi pa ngayon ang oras hehehehe ^_^v
Q. what are the requirements/procedures/steps needed for EMS?
A. simple lang naman...first, kailangan atat ka! joke hehehe well, just fill up this EMS CONTACT FORM below with your Full Name, Email Address, Title of the Song, Artist for that Particular Song, Date ( when do you need the music sheets ), Mode of Payment ( BDO or PAYPAL ), Special Request ( if you need it to be transposed or what ), with melody/lyrics or piano accompaniment and check the box If you Agreed to the Terms applicable only to EMS service. don't use my facebook to send in your requests. i need the above informations kasi para mas madali ko ma-prioritize or else baka maoverlook ko lang yun.
second, after sending the EMS CONTACT FORM, wait for my reply... let me confirm first your ORDER FORM or your inquiry on using EMS service thru e-mail... after that, i'll send my estimates and will wait for your reply. if you're ok with the price then i'll now ask you to deposit* ( goodwill money: non-refundable but deductible from the total amount ) atleast $15 or Php750 ( whichever is higher ). if you'll be using PAYPAL, wait for my paypal invoice which i'll be sending thru email. after verification of the payment, i'll start to transcribe the sheet music of your request.
FIRST to PAY the down/full payment, FIRST SERVED policy is observed sa lahat ng paid transcriptions ko. so, if i don't receive your DOWN PAYMENT man lang, i won't start with the transcription. be sure to settle the agreed amount as soon as you can dahil dito naka-base ang pagkakasunod-sunod ng gagawin ko. hindi porket binigyan mo ko ng isang linggo to meet your deadline eh 1-2 days before ka lang magdedeposit. most likely masisingitan ka ng ibang atat na musiko lol and for sure magkakaproblema tayo sa deadline pag ganyan. aba! hindi lang po ikaw ang nagmamadali. always check your e-mail if on going ang transaction and be sure to inform me thru e-mail that you've already deposited the processing fee lalo na if you use BDO in depositing the amount... or else hindi ko malalaman at all...
third, once i'm done i'll send you an email regarding the full details including the amount to be paid ( balance if there's any ). i'll then require you to deposit the agreed full amount. once verified, i'll send the sheet music in .pdf format and voila! done business! [ No Payment ( in Full ), No Sheet Music Policy for EMS only ]
'wag kayong impossible na magrerequest sa akin na kailangan matapos within a day?! mind you, music sheet transcription is very time consuming. i even tend to skip meals at times kapag i have the momentum to finish it... eh since i don't wanna die early hehehehe i'd rather take my time doing these stuff... okay?!?!? ^_^v
note:
about the DEPOSIT / DOWN PAYMENT / PROCESSING FEE / GOODWILL MONEY thing.. bakit meron nito? okay, here's the reason:
as you all know NOW ( that is if you've read my GUIDELINES ) i'm such a busy person. aside from work 5 days a week, i go to church in the morning and have choir practice to attend to on saturdays and sundays piano lessons and for my other chores... i only have weeknights and the rest of the remaining hours ng sundays to transcribe/arrange music sheets.
eh ano ngayon ika mo?
kapag may nag-send ng form requesting to avail EMS, pina-prioritize ko tlaga ito more than dun sa mga piano pieces na nakapending at naka lista sa ON QUEUE OPM SHEET MUSIC... and i assume, na kaya mo inavail itong EMS eh dahil atat kang mapasakamay mo ang piano piece na gusto mo.. kaya nakakapika lang na malalaman-laman ko, pagkatapos kong pagpuyatan itong ni-request mo eh hindi ka na magpaparamdam na para bang natabunan ka na ng semento sa loob ng isang drum na kasamang lumubog sa titanic. ABA! don't waste my time and don't test my patience hehehehe... nagtya-tyaga nga ako gumawa ng piyesa eh parang niloloko ninyo pa ako.. buset! ^_^v to make the long whining-story short... para maiwasan ko lang ang mga bogus na nagrerequest, i demand now for a down payment, tutal... ile-less naman ito sa total payment para sa buong piyesa. ayoko sanang gawin ito kasi wala naman akong nakkitang dahilan noon... pero after experiencing a few times yung scenario na magrerequest tapos biglang maglalaho eh parang nakakaloko na ata... kung ayaw ninyo pong makatulong sa akin sa pamamagitan ng EMS ko dito, eh just wait for your opm sheet music request to be uploaded according to my time frame... ^_^v
