The Jayamen Music Guild

[Sofetios 292]

We are back as of 10/27/2024!

 

Hey there! Welcome to the Jayamen Music Guild! Because most of what I'm going to discuss is ooc, (but ic when used in-game) this is going to be mainly ooc to not confuse people.

 

We are a group that enjoys and wants to learn how to perform music in-game! This can be in one of two ways. The original way, (using noteblock pianos, basic and harder, but everyone can hear and use it.) or the figura way (using your keyboard, basic to advanced, but not everyone can hear it or use it unless they have figura.)

 

 

_________________

 

 

We have 5 ranks for each type. Figura users will have a F in front of their rank. The ranks for both are,

 

 

Beginner

 

This rank is given to those just starting the piano, when you get the basics down, then you move to Novice.

 

Novice

 

At this level you can play simple songs, get the timing right, and are working towards more complex ones.

 

Journeyman

 

At this level you can play complex songs, have the timing right, and are working towards being able to improvise as you play.

 

Advanced

 

At this level you can play advanced songs and also improvisation.

 

Teacher 

 

Journeyman to Advanced students can also teach if given permission by Orizen Jayamen.

 

I will give a card with your rank to each person who joins. Signed by me so it's official.

You can join for individual play or group play. Group play works for both figura and non figura, though for non figura, you need a fair bit of flat room to set up.

 

 

 

Non figura is played by setting up noteblocks, usually in a 3x3 pattern flat on the ground. I call this a grand noteblock piano. There are more advanced versions I have made called the grand master noteblock piano, but we'll stick with this. The noteblocks are set to certain notes via right click, and you have them play the same note they are on by left click. So it's like being able to  play 9 of the notes on a piano at will.

 

You can of course do this for different sounds, like flute, banjo, piano, bell, etc. also drum sounds as well. I teach all this and more at the Guild.

 

For obtaining the noteblock piano and optional songbooks, I do charge a "Pay what you want" fee. Though coming to the shop and using the instruments there is all free.

 

See post 2 for costs of songbooks/guidebook/pianos etc.

 

 

Figura version

 

This is done through three ways.

 

I have figura profiles for certain Minecraft instruments. Note you can make it sound like rl instruments, but I kept it with the Minecraft sounds for immersion. Also I know how to make visual instruments with block bench, but that will take time. Right now I have guitar, harp, piano, banjo and three others ready to go.

 

Way 1

 

You use the numbers 1-9 to play the same songs a non figura grand piano would, but it's a lot easier this way and you don't need to re keybind your irl keyboard. But you can only play these 9 notes. You CAN play chords.

 

Way 2 

 

Same thing. But a much bigger range of notes, also it is like playing your computer keyboard as a piano one irl. You WILL need to rekeybind a bunch of keys, but you can do so much with this. It's a bit of a learning curve, but once you get it, it is so good. You can play more than one note at once here as well.

 

Way 3 

 

This way you just hit a key, and it plays a short audio file. I personally do not like to use this method when possible.

 

With way 3 I can make this happen for any song I can get the right file for. I can transform a complex song to a simple one or complex to complex. I can also change the notes to be in the minecraft noteblocks sounds. Also due to the figura file size limit. The song will be pretty short. I can play an example in-game.

 

 

Prices for 1 and 2 are "Pay what you want" as well. Also you cannot copy and redistribute the figura files I send.

 

See post 3 for mina commissions for new song transcribing for figura and non-figura methods.

 

Aaaanyway, this place is for me and others to learn and play music together. Even have performances. Learning, playing, the whole thing is free except for getting the figura files needed to play or physical noteblocks/lesson books. If you are interested feel free to dm me or pm me. Dms work better though. My discord is Sofetios . I already made the figura lua docs for this, so I can send ways 1 and 2. Easily enough. 3 will take less than an hour per song.

 

Ic I am Orizen Jayamen. We are located at Krawnstriet VI in the capital of Haense. My IGN is Sofetios. Go in the town, the road left of the tavern and it will be on the right.

 

If you have any questions or I am missing information here. Please let me know.

Pianos, Songbooks, and Lessons (non figura method)

!! EVERY PRICE HAS CHANGED TO THE "PAY WHAT YOU WANT" MODEL. !!

 

 

 

((The Piano is a noteblock piano. You can actually play songs on it that people hear regardless of mods))

 

 

We Sell Pianos, Songbooks, and Lessons! Come by and practice for free or just use it for fun! We also sell a piano guidebook for self installation of a piano!

 

 

The first thing to buy for owning a piano or for learning from songbooks is The Piano Guide (With Lessons it isnt needed). It covers how to make a piano, tune it, types of sounds it can make, and also how to read songbooks. YOU NEED TO BUY THIS AND READ IT BEFORE BUYING SONGBOOKS! The Price is Pay what you want and comes with a piano installation or materials to do it yourself if you choose that. Me coming to tune the piano is free. (The book teaches how to tune. The visits are if you don't want to do it yourself.) The Guidebook Comes with buying the book and/or the piano.  You do not need the guide book for 1 on 1 lessons.

 

 

 

Piano Sounds

 

The Pianos I sell can come in 6 different sounds. Piano, Double Bass, Wind (( Flute )), Pluck (( Guitar )), Xylophone, and Twang (( Banjo )). All of these cost the same.
