Oi, since this was DQd for a bit already I'll now post properly what I mentioned to mangomizer somewhere else already but didn't have enough time to finish yet:
- Sections like 00:11:550 seem like they're supposed to keep Nightcore's cymbalcrash-pattern intact, but that's far from correct. Concerning this area here, there's already a 'missing crash' at 00:05:660 while there's one occurring at 00:08:605 which doesn't fit, so that section would already have to be placed there. This sorta thing obviously repeats a few more times in the intro and also later on at 01:40:261 where you didn't even 'fix' it at 01:46:151 etc.
- If you actually set the timing sections correctly according to that previous point, you won't need those clusters like 00:21:487 - 00:22:223 - 00:22:962 anymore as your two-barline-issue doesn't occur when the pattern has been fixed at 00:17:070 and you wouldn't need a sections at 00:22:962 anymore anyways because it's obviously already fixed LOL
- Now if you actually care about those cymbalcrashes, 00:48:728 is a very ridiculous one lol, so if you wanna have it more correct you'd need to add a section at 00:47:991
In a similar manner 04:07:133 is a weird crash too so that could need some sort of tweaking around too - 03:22:593 - I don't think spots like these are correct measure-wise, I see that your timing here is coming from the note-pattern that starts repeating at 03:24:617 but rhythmically that seems completely unnatural to me even though I've listened to as many songs odd time signatures that I could find lately - From 03:22:593 to 03:26:089 you've got a eighth-note-rhythm of 3-3-2-3-3-3-2, and in patterns like that the "2"s are usually foreshadowing accentuated beats - The beat after the first "2" is 03:24:065 which would be the downbeat if you keep the signature running at 4/4, so everything would fit in that way, that's why I personally find it extremely weird to delay the downbeat another "3" like you did - My suggestion is to time it like this (which is missing NC-fixing-sections at 03:27:561 etc. I guess but it's just a mess anyways lol). There isn't really an objective "true" or "false" when it comes to signatures, so I'm not 100% sure about it myself, but I just feel like that's much more natural so just take that into consideration and do whatever you want with it, none of my other odd-measure-friends are online rn so I couldn't ask for more opinions on that rn ^^
- Again a NC-fix-section would be missing at 03:43:575 if you wanna have it properly, which would also make the one at 03:55:354 superfluous
- Also 05:24:066 seems like it should be a downbeat instead of 05:23:698 -, I'm too tired to find a way to make this work for NC rn tho
- I see that you timed the final part at 05:25:538 following the guitar, and again there is no objective right or wrong probably, but I just gotta say that having kicks and snares at half-tempo-offbeat at 05:31:428 - 05:32:164 - 05:32:900 - etc seems extreemely weird to me, I'd suggest this timing following the drums instead of the guitar because to me drums are a much stronger indicator of rhyhtm than guitars, and the stuff that the guitars are doing is just weird either way so ya idk, think about it xd
timing
(dream theater) is a happy thing : )
so ya, as it is now the NC-stuff is only halfway fixed so if you actually care about that I think I listed everything there is to change, ofc feel free to poke me if you have any more questions, I gotta go to bed rn lol
