Ennea, this posting has the pictures, courtesy of auriplane http://www.gametabs.net/article/kabukibears-way-too-long-arranging-tutorial Alucard1996, what you wrote on that fretboard picture is an Eb major scale if you start playing on the Eb note. But you could use those same notes and start playing on the C instead to get a C minor scale, which is the key of that Monochrome song. C minor is the relative minor to Eb Major and they both have 3 flats in the key signature. It takes some practice to be able to figure out what the tonal center of a song is. As for transcribing, you really don't need any theory knowledge, so don't get too caught up on that. I'm not sure if you wanted to do all the instruments or to try to combine the melody and bass to make a fingerstyle arrangement. It would be easiest to start with the melody and just try to replicate the notes. Here is the first part of the melody: e------10--11--10------------------ B---8--------------11----------8--- G----------------------10---------- D---------------------------------- A---------------------------------- E---------------------------------- Try to follow it from there and ask if you have any questions

Hello, I'm kinda new here.
I need help with arranging/transcribing this track.
I don't know much about music theory
(Except E Major scale and few note names/degrees on the fretboard, I know that pretty good)
Anyway 5 years ago I played this game Hotel Dusk, and I just can't get this tune out of my head called Monochrome: LINK
Like I said, my scale knowledge is pretty poor, but this is what I managed to create so far:
I DONT KNOW HOW TO POST IMAGE HERE
Scale degrees.
1-----2----3-4----5----6---7--1
Eb---F---G-Ab--Bb--C--D--Eb
I guess I could call it Eb Major Scale maybe ? I don't know, but I strongly believe that this track uses these exact notes I just worked out above.
The thing is I have absolutely no idea how am I supposed to use this information to create an arrangment/transcription Obviously I have to use these notes, but I really need some directions here, cuz I'm totally lost. So any advice would be very much appreciated :)
