I can't sightread and the last I played recorder was 15 years ago so absolute beginner. Youtube tutorials seem gay to me. I only remember 4 touhou songs on piano by memory, without bass.
The thing is that I have to apparently translate musescore Piano sheets that have the wrong bpm probably, with only the melody I need and actually know fingering. Is there a easier way? does anyone play Wind?
Does ai scanning sheet pngs actually work

I'm sure the /mu/tants will disapprove, but IMO the easiest method is to pretend it's a one-string guitar and write it out as tabs. 0 is lowest note, 1 is a semitone up, 2 is two semitones up, etc. You have to memorize the fingering for each number. Advantage is you can easily transpose by adding/subtracting from the numbers, and you can play the same tab on a different size recorder and it automatically transposes. Disadvantage is real musicians will look down on you because tabs are too easy, even though they're actually older than sheet music.

I would say at least try and commit to learning how to read music. Children learn the basics the first couple lessons of band while quickly being thrust into actually playing to reinforce the basics to build the read+play synch. It's not something you do in isolation vs playing.
You're simply not gonna make it in a reasonable time frame if you can't handle lessons. Playing by ear is possible and plenty do it, but it's a skillset that takes much longer to adapt to.
