What do you mean? Frequencies? Or universal keys?

[AABattery]

I'm guessing that he's asking for beats...?

[Hodou Okappa]

Do you mean... letters...? Like the first two measures being "A B F B F?"

[Drey Wilkins]

Well, It's sheet music, So I can do it easy... But Like everyone said: What exactly do you mean?

[CrackerjacK]

I mean that the notes c,d,e,etc. Into numbers like the first key is 1, second is 2 and the hight notes have dots on top of it. Thanx !

[Drey Wilkins]

Why into that format?

[CrackerjacK]

that's the only way i could read it dude.

[Drey Wilkins]

Ah. Into Guitar Tab, I take it.

I cannot do that. I have not learnt Guitar.

Do you want my advice? Learn to read the That style of sheet music. a lot of music is in that format, and it would save a lot of trouble to learn it.

If you want to: Here is my advice:

Spoiler : Notes :

The middle line in the Treble (Upper) Clef Is B.
The middle line in the Bass (Lower) Clef is D.
The next spot up, which is the gap between the two lines is C and E respectively.
Then it is D and F respectively.
If a note has what looks like an Italicized Hash symbol (#) next to it, it is sharp.
If a note has what looks like a small, bold 'b' next to it, it is Flat.

That is how you read Sheet music.

actually, i mean piano tab dude. the only piano notes i can play is the ones with numbers under it.

[Drey Wilkins]

Piano TAB? Why on earth...

Never mind. my advice is still the same. Even more so now. Almost every Piano song I have ever seen is on Sheet music, not Tab. And no matter what, the pointers I put earlier are still the same.

Seriously. It's better if you learn to read it. It will save you, and other people a lot of time and trouble.

i'm learning it right now but i have exams coming up. it's my final year in junior high school and i've got to focus on studying. please! i really need those numbers to pass my comp test. thanx

[EmaTheScienceSkye]

So you mean numbered notation? I'll do the melody, I guess. Bold underline is double underline. Dot before is dot below and dot after is dot above. Dot in brackets is dot after. Small numbers are grace notes. In respect to D major. Rest of them are standard numbered notation.

.5 .6 3 .6 3-- 3 2-- .6 b3 3 .6 3 2 1 1 .7 1 1- .4 .5 #.5 b.7 1 2 b3 4 #4 5--(.) 0(.) 0 5 #4 5 3 3 1 1 .6 .7 1 .6 1 2 1 2 3 1 1 .5(.) 0 0 .7 1 b.7 1 b3 2 1 2 b.7--(.) 0 .7 6 7. 6--- 2 b3 2 1 2 1 .7 .6 .7 #1 2 1--(.) .5 .6 b.7 .6(.) 2(.) .5--(.)

This is the most ridiculous notation method in the world. Even in China, they have normal sheet music. You should just learn normal sheet music, 'cause this is unintuitive and super complicated. That tiny leitmotifesque line took like an hour to transcribe. So ridiculously complicated.

thanx ema! this'll help me alot!

[Hodou Okappa]

Numbered notation is complicated, yes, but it's necessary for MIDI music. If you're doing something involving that, or if that's how you learned, then it makes sense.
