k so barring my stupidity aside, have
*boop*General
Hitsounds in all diffs 00:03:665 - add finish
00:50:566 - add kick
4K [EZ]
00:09:158 (9158|2) - I would extend this into a 1/2 LN since the bag pipes or whatever that instrument is still plays here.
00:09:792 (9792|3) - Same suggestion and reason as above
00:26:059 - 00:26:904 - I would add notes here for the kick and also to keep the 1/1 base rhythm steady in this section.
00:50:989 (50989|2,51306|2) - I would suggest against stacking these notes since it's kind of hard to read 3/4 rhythms as a beginning player when the notes are stacked. Additionally, the pitch is different from the previous note, so pitch relevancy wise, it's inaccurate.
00:53:524 - I would consider adding a 2/1 LN here for the drumroll, and then adding a 1/1 LN at 00:53:946 - to represent the reverse cymbal
00:56:059 (56059|2,56482|2) - Don't really see a reason to stack these notes
01:12:961 (72961|3,73383|3) - Similar to the above. I'd move the notes around a bit to be in different columns every time.
[Ly0's NM]
00:51:623 (51623|1,51623|0) - Why make these LNs when the other notes aren't? It's not like there's any special emphasis here for it, so I would just make them short notes like the others
01:14:862 - Missing note here? You've set up a base 1/2 rhythm in this section, so not having a note here kind of breaks the flow imo since that's what the player is expecting is to keep a steady 1/2 beat.
[HD]
00:32:397 (32397|2,33031|1) - I'd actually try and flip the LNs and short notes here since it's easier to hit the short notes when they're on the index finger because muscles and stuff in the hand D: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7602037 Like that would work, or you could also isolate hands and put LNs on left/right hand and short notes on the opposite
00:53:524 - I highly doubt this is actually 1/4. It sounds faster, and it seems like there's 00:53:524 - to 00:53:735 - is 1/6. Since the music is kind of vague, I think that would be better than to use 1/4, so maybe try this instead https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7602058
[MX]
00:20:989 (20989|2) - I'd make this a short note since you left notes like 00:22:679 (22679|0,22679|1,24369|2,24369|0) - as short notes when there's a similar guitar sound there
00:34:721 (34721|0,34932|1) - I would recommend putting the overlap on both hands instead of just one since the coordination between hands becomes easier. Maybe something like this would work https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7602089
01:07:468 - I would suggest adding another note here in 4 to make a hand for the crash
5K [EZ]
00:26:059 - 00:26:904 - Similar to what I mentioned in the 4K Easy diffs, I would add a note here to keep the steady 1/1 base rhythm
00:50:989 (50989|0,51306|0) - Also similar to what I said in the 4K diffs, they aren't the same pitch here, so I wouldn't recommend stacking them as players of this level aren't used to reading 3/4 rhythms just yet, so spreading them across both columns is vital to give them a visual cue.
01:10:003 (70003|0,70003|4,70848|0,70848|4) - I'd suggest making these jumps different each time since I think using the same [15] jump feels kind of repetitive.
01:11:693 (71693|2,71693|4,72538|0,72538|2,73383|0,73383|2,74228|4,74228|2) - Similarly, the last 4 jumps have been either [13] or [35], so I would consider trying a different kind of chord for a bit more variety.
[NM]
00:23:735 (23735|1) - Move to 1 since the last roll was also 2-3-5
00:31:552 (31552|0) - Remove this note (move the kick.wav to 00:31:552 (31552|3) - if you do). My reason here being that you've mapped all the kicks in this section using singles, and so by mapping this kick as a jump, you've broken consistency. Additionally, I'd recommend against using 1/4 triplets to lead into a jump on a Normal, but that's not really a large issue at 142 bpm.
00:36:834 - Add note here to maintain the 1/2 base rhythm
00:50:989 (50989|2,51306|2,51623|4,52045|4) - Similar stuff I mentioned in the last diff about pitch relevancy
01:19:721 (79721|3,79721|1,79721|2,79932|3,79932|2,79932|1) - Ehhh, Im kind of on the edge about this one. I mean, it's 5K so using larger chord sizes in the lower diffs is more acceptable, but at the same time, it's still only 5 columns so you're already using 60% of the columns here which I feel may be a bit too heavy for players to read at this level. Idk, I dont mind if you keep them as is or reduce them to jumps. Your choice
[HD]
00:50:989 (50989|1,50989|3,51306|0,51306|4) - Assuming you left the other diffs the same with the stacked note here, I'd try to be consistent and make this stacked too, in columns [24] probably
[Arcwin's MX]
00:52:045 (52045|2,52256|2,52468|2,52679|2,52890|2) - That's kind of a long stack in 3. I'd try to shorten it a bit to 3 notes long with 00:52:468 (52468|2,52679|2,52890|2) - , so try this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7611469
00:57:115 - Shouldn't this be a double for the clap?
01:17:397 - Same as the above
6K [Ly0's EZ]
00:03:665 - I'm fine with using triples in NM and above for 6k, but at this level, I feel like that's just forcing the player to use too many fingers at once when they're still developing finger independence.
00:26:059 - 00:26:904 - Similar to what I said in the other diffs, I would add a single note here to keep the rhythm steady
01:06:200 - Add a note in 5 for the crash here? It's the same sound as 01:06:623 (66623|0,66623|1,67468|4,67468|5) -
01:21:728 (81728|2,81834|3) - Could you not use 1/4 on an Easy diff? Even though the bpm is pretty slow, it's still fast enough to come as a surprise to a new player who's just learning how to read mania and develop finger independence. I would just make the rhythm here similar to the other easies, like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617389
01:23:418 (83418|1,83524|4) - ^
01:25:108 (85108|1,85214|4) - 01:25:637 (85637|5,85742|3) - ^ This is the only thing I'ma be a hard ass about, but you've got to change those 1/4 notes to 1/2 or lower snap. 1/4 is too surprising for the player. Simplify the rhythm instead
[Ajee's NM]
00:13:806 (13806|5,13806|3) - I would just suggest using a single here since the sound isnt incredibly strong here. What you could try instead is something like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617419
01:00:707 - Consider adding another note here in 5?
01:00:918 (60918|5) - I would recommend making this a short note since 01:00:285 (60285|0,60496|2) - gives the player the feeling that the 1/2 overlapping LN is for the clap, when at 01:00:918 - , it's for what I assume to be the vocal.
01:06:623 (66623|2) - I might consider extending this all the way to 01:07:890 - since that's where the long held vocal notes come in. If accepted, move 01:07:468 (67468|1) - to 2?
01:13:806 (73806|2) - Extend this to 01:14:228 - for the clap?
[Ajee's HD]
00:37:468 (37468|2) - Recommend removing since you have a triple here for a kick when you've only mapped kicks as doubles.
01:15:073 (75073|3,75073|5,75285|4,75496|4,75707|3,75707|5,75918|5,75918|3) - Felt a bit right hand heavy imo. I'd try something more like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617507
[Etlie's MX]
00:00:285 - Map the 1/4 here fully, like you did in 00:01:975 - because it's part of the same musical phrase and so mapping the same rhythm in different ways only a measure apart is kind of off putting since you make the player expect one thing only for the other to occur.
00:57:115 - Recommend adding another note here for the clap
7K [EZ]
00:26:059 - 00:26:904 - Add notes for the kick? I actually think you could turn them into overlapping LNs like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617532
00:31:975 - 00:40:003 - Poor column 3 isn't used for a full 9 seconds lol. I'd recommend moving 00:36:200 (36200|0) - to 3 to try and balance out the columns
00:50:989 (50989|5,50989|1,51306|5,51306|1) - Not the same pitch but stacked *sad*
[NM]
00:38:524 (38524|6,38630|4,38735|2,38735|0,38841|5,38946|3,39052|1) - I think it'd be cool to make these overlapped LNs like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617564 . Well that might be a bit hard. Could consider it for the Hard (assuming Sora's reading this)
[Sora's HD]
00:38:524 - Kind of like what I mentioned in the Normal, I think using some LNs here for the violin would be nice. Something like this might work https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617599
00:52:045 - 00:52:256 - 00:52:468 - Shouldn't these be triples notes if 00:50:989 (50989|1,50989|0,50989|6,51306|0,51306|4,51306|1,51623|1,51623|0,51623|2) - are? So maybe like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617617
01:02:397 - Use 1/4 here instead? The violin plays a run here, and the normal also uses 1/4. I'd suggest something like this https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617641
[MX]
00:20:989 (20989|4) - I would make this 1/2 since the guitar isn't palm muted or anything
01:06:200 - I'm pretty sure you could do a cool LN wall thing here for the violin runs. Something similar to this maybe? https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/7617681
- Jumping from OD/HP 7.8/7.8 in the HD to 8.6/8.6 in the MX is kind of a large and unnecessary jump imo since the chart isn't very difficult to begin with. I would try using OD/HP 8.3/8.3 or something around that
- soft-hitclap is really low quality. Here's a similar sample that sounds clearer http://puu.sh/uPu1g.wav (just right click and save as to download the sample)
- not a suggestion, but you sample imported the custom named samples (the soft-hitx's) and looking at it in the editor, this bugs me aaaaaaa
00:50:566 - add kick
00:09:158 (9158|2) - I would extend this into a 1/2 LN since the bag pipes or whatever that instrument is still plays here.
00:09:792 (9792|3) - Same suggestion and reason as above
00:26:059 - 00:26:904 - I would add notes here for the kick and also to keep the 1/1 base rhythm steady in this section.

01:07:468 - I would suggest adding another note here in 4 to make a hand for the crash
00:26:059 - 00:26:904 - Similar to what I mentioned in the 4K Easy diffs, I would add a note here to keep the steady 1/1 base rhythm

01:11:693 (71693|2,71693|4,72538|0,72538|2,73383|0,73383|2,74228|4,74228|2) - Similarly, the last 4 jumps have been either [13] or [35], so I would consider trying a different kind of chord for a bit more variety.
