Easy
Sounds good for me. (but a 4 STAR EASY? Try a more intuitive overall spacing and make this mode easier, please.)

stragerfly
00:43:182 (2) - move it a square left
00:56:022 (1,1,1,2,1,2,3) - too many finishes... try to replace some of them with something else!
01:07:352 (4,5,6,7,1) - fix spacing

H-Mix
[General] fix overall hitsound-placing... some parts are pretty weird...

Every mode has something to improve, but I can see individual mappers's skills.
Go on and keep up improving!

Whee

Blue = design/minor issues. you do not have to change these if you don't want to
Orange = moderate issues. it would be best if you change these, but you may be able to get away with not changing it
Red = major issues. you need to change these

  1. BPM = 158.900 I'd say
  2. No source. Is there an album name or something that you could put here?
  3. You could use some more tags too. techno or dance might be good to put in there
[EASY]

Might be a little hard for the easiest difficulty. You should remove some of the beats since the constant stream of beats in this might be a little too much for beginners.

No technical problems. A little short though. I'm sure you could map a little more.

[STRAGERFLY]

Like easy, Its a little on the short side. You can keep it like this if you really want to, but It'd be better if you mapped some more.

And like easy, looks fine. Someone might complain about the sliders at 00:59:043 and how they overlap, but they don't bother me so I'll leave them.

[NORMAL]

The BG's broken for me on this. You'll need to add it to normal again.

I guess this is still a WIP, so I won't mod it. That spacing looks a bit wide for a normal though :o

[H-MIX]

00:13:158 (1,2,3,1) - These jumps don't fit to me. They seem to come out of nowhere. Maybe you could tone them down?
01:03:197 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - ^ (Ignore me on this if you want though)

Not too bad. Some of the jumps in H-mix were a bit nasty but thats probably just me.

Extended the [Easy] map.
The jumps stay. D:
The song is a single I think so no album name or anything for the source.
Added tags.
Removed
[Normal]. I didn't mean to upload it. D:

Yo ,
Easy
01:36:416 (2) Ignore DS on this one and move it 1 square to the left ? Looks better

stragerfly
interessting spinners...
i dont get the combos.. but i dont care bout them a lot anyway

H-mix
01:26:221 (1) 1 to the left
01:44:346 -01:47:178 Claps here are ugly not so good... change/remove them maybe?
02:27:769 (1) well THAT is insane
02:38:719 (8) New combo ? :P

EDIT:
The song is a single I think so no album name or anything for the source.
Well, i dont think calling the source "Single" is correct ^^.

add strager to tags on all difficulties
delete osb file in folder
cut any of the mp3 you aren't going to use

Easy:
00:04:660 (5) - new combo
00:16:743 (4) - ^
01:36:794 (3) - repeat is kinda hidden and might confuse beginner players..so move note before it
01:47:366 (1,2) - I would separate these just to make it simpler (up to you)

stragerfly:
personally im not a fan of the finish usage at the start
00:56:013 (1,1,1,2,1,2,3) - finish spam doesn't sound good
01:08:474 (2) - add note?

H-Mix:
00:09:191 (4,1) - switch new combo
00:10:513 (1,2) - ^
00:11:835 (4,1) - ^
00:28:638 (1,2) - ^
01:02:999 (1,2) - ^
02:09:645 (5) - new combo
02:12:665 (4) - ^
02:15:686 (7) - ^
02:21:728 (5) - ^
02:38:153 (7) - delete?

Added, thanks Xero.

Note to modders: stragerfly will either be made longer or removed. That doesn't mean don't mod it; it just means you may be asked to remod it later if/when it gets extended.

You should write Xero_HT in all diffs
Delete the .osb and full upload
Easy_HT

[00:36:473] i like this but idk whether 1/4 can be used in easy..
[00:46:007] how about make volume = 20% ? 10% is too Low to hear
[02:37:634] ~1/8, same as [00:36:473]

Normal

[01:13:760] I suggest you remove this finish . Add a note at [01:14:138] and finish it

stragerfly

[01:17:719] remove the whistle

Insane

[00:49:594] Timing section should be set ahead the note when you change the BPM,sample set or volume (you can set at [00:49:217])
[01:26:221] ^
[02:16:252] (slider-ending) whistle
[02:17:008] (slider-ending) remove whistle

I like your mapping style , keep it up~

- Why is this diff so short? Get this mapped to where all the other diffs. are mapped to... otherwise I would personally remove this difficulty ._.

Fine.

stragerfly? where'd that go?
Timing feels and sounds fine to me, might need double check, but yea...

Easy_HT-
00:06:171 (2) - ... try increasing the volume at a bit of a slower pace (add more timing panels which slowly gets louder before 00:13:723...?)
01:08:096 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - have the spacing equal for these two formations?
01:38:304 (1) - not that it really matters... but wouldn't a finish fit here? (on start of slider)
02:06:057 (2,3,4,5) - spacing? (2 is kinda close compared to the other combos, and 3 is a light jump, not hard, but not very constant)
02:33:811 (4) - maybe add slider slider whistle?
Would prefer if the map didn't have the 1/2, but its still easy, no problem

Normal-
OD felt kinda low.. whoa, really low O.o its playable, but still... OD up please (Drain too)
00:32:980 (2,3,4) - imo, replace 2,4 with claps and remove 3's repeat's clap o_o?
00:35:246 (2,3,4) - ...^ same thing-ish, remove 3's clap though?
01:42:835 (5) - add clap to repeat? (follows pace)
01:46:989 - add note with clap?
02:18:707 (4,6) - stack or don't overlap like this? :D (respace next note if moved)
haha, increasing OD will make your spinners more like ninja spinners though

Insane-
00:04:849 - add note to match first two combos? or nah..
This map sounds fine~ good

@.@ would it be troublesome to map a Hard? (or just make Normal a bit... more challenging..?) extra work?
I... guess I could bubble this later

haha, increasing OD will make your spinners more like ninja spinners though I changed the end spinner to a slider since it only hit 2k bonus.

Insane-

@.@ would it be troublesome to map a Hard? (or just make Normal a bit... more challenging..?) extra work? Again, I wanted strager's to be the hard/normal+ but since he refused to extend I was forced to remove. I really don't want to map a hard for it, so unless strager decides to extend, there wont be one.

I... guess I could bubble this later
Thanks for modding Shin. :D

Okay then~

  1. Both approachcircles (spinner and normal) are needed so it doesn't mess up other skins.
  2. Tags are not the same on all difficulties...
  3. Would be better if the mp3 had a fade out at the end.
[Normal]
  1. Why low stack leniency...? I've never liked this. =|
[Hard]
  1. Most jumps don't fit IMO, but meh, just personal opinion.
I can understand the low stack leniency on Hard, but on Normal... not quite.

Fixed what is striked. I'm not editing the mp3 and tags should only contain the name of the creator on the diff they created.

Just be aware that I warned you about tags~ though you seem to have a point.

Seems I popped my own bubble. The only thing I changed was the normal circle size to 2.

Very good.

Bubbled.

Ranked.
I really like the insane for this map it's feel was something I'd like to see in more insanes tho I was a bit sad that there wasn't a hard to link al
the diffs in together but the diff flow other than that was great!

Why spacing is so big on Insane orz.

I think Insane would be more fun with circle size +1.
