A far better solution would be to edit the .wav file to quiet it down. If anybody knows a good, free program to do this with, I would be very happy.

00:34:834 (1) - Cymbals are clearely heard in the song,but adding finish causes drowning next hitsound,so probably it's better to leave it empty,yeah.
00:55:136 (1) - Add finish? Actually, an earlier mod I had suggested that I put a finisher on both repeaters, but I felt that I was using finish too much, so I removed it from this note. I've removed the finish on 00:56:586 (2) instead.
01:05:287 (1) - Remove new combo. Thanks. Done.
01:09:819 (1,2) - Such patterns bug me a lot.While playing,I can't guess if there'll be another repeat or there's half-beat space. I don't know how to fix this right now... I'll add it to the help me section.

Hitsounds are good to me.Good choice for custom clap,and even default whistles fits really well.The only thing - I'd search for custom finish hitsound.Default one is a bit rough to me. I'll look for a new finish hitsound, thanks for the advice and the compliment. It took me more effort than I would like to admit to get that hit-sound.

No more problems,good job.

01:15:619 (1) - weird slider ...Yeah, this is kind of weird, but it's meant to follow 01:14:351 (3). I'll consider changing it.
01:18:520 (1) - remove Finish and add Whistle ? Done

that all
i can´t find wrong
and sorry my poor english

star and good luck

1. Preview time isn't the same, fix it.
2. Add countdown?
3. Offset: Try -5~-15ms.

1. 00:13:807 (4,1) - Little spacing error here, fix it?
2. 00:19:607 (5) - Remove a repeat and start the spinner at 00:20:332 - ?
3. 00:23:777 (1) - Add a repeat?
4. 00:29:577 (1) - ^
5. 01:03:474 (4) - whistle here?
6. 01:18:338 (1) - Add a finish?

1. OD is too high imo, how about -1?
2. 00:31:934 (1) - Move it so it's not under the previous slider?
3. 00:33:202 (5,6) - Try to fix spacing?
4. 01:18:338 (1) - Add a finish?

Well

Pretty awesome mapset.

As I mentioned in IRC, you might need a easy difficulty between 1.50-2.00 stars. Otherwise the mapset will not be rank-able. Of course, this isn't a ironclad rule, and they might let it slide. But just mentioning it here too. I hope I don't need to make an easy. It would be very boring. THIS is not a boring song. :J

Also, both your diffs have tons of unsnapped objects. Just click on "Timings -> Resnap all objects" Just make sure you snap divisor is on 1/4. LOL. I can't believe that I forgot to resnap my notes after changing the offset. Heck, I even changed the inheriting sections and I still forgot.

Also for hard

00:58:573 (4) - remove all whisltes, it sounds a lot better IMO.
01:04:381 (4) - ^ same as above. Good Call. This should also make Taiko mode a little more reasonable.

and that's about it.

A very solid beatmap. If you decide not to add a easy diff, I'd start MAT hunting if I where you. I think this is close to perfection. All extra mods will be just nitpicking, the core of the map is rock solid! Once again, good job!

Thanks for your mod! If you want, you could make an easy for me. I've already got an Insane in the works and Medi-chan is making a taiko map so... Do as you will.

1. I'd say your dark grey colour is a bit too close to the BG, and makes the approach circles blend in a bit. You could make it lighter, but that wouldn't contrast with the other grey well. Hmm. Perhaps removing it would be the best solution. Or keeping it. Your choice.
2. It'd be lovely if you made an Easy to go with this mapset. Especially if you're making an Insane, which appears to be the case.

I'm happy to finally get back to modding after 6 days.

(that is gonna hurt me in the long run) Thanks for modding my map anyway.

Anyways, folder check:
All good here.

Normal:
00:27:943 (3) - the way you used soft hitsounding on this slider sounds so wierd. Suggestion: Remove the slider tick whistle? Sure. I guess.
00:33:743 (3) - ^^
01:04:922 (3,4) - this slider and note are touching. possible fix? Fixed.
Hard:
00:17:067 (8) - turn on grid 4 and move this to the left 1? it fits more snug under the previous slider. Thanks, it looks nice.
01:00:934 (4) - try to make this slider a bit more round? its just a bit ugly in its current condition. Fixed.
01:13:804 (1) - remove new combo? Done.

Insane:
00:18:698 (4,5,6,7,8) - this random spacing decreasing was sort of random and does not fit. it almost confused me for a 1/4th stream actually but i will let you decide on that one. I tried to go for "staircase stack" here. Similar to this http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/100855. I guess I'll just remap.
00:22:867 (1) - woah random speed increase. May i suggest a sb'ed speed up warning? I added a similar speed up to 00:17:067 (9) to make this less random.
00:46:432 (1,2,3,4,5) - random spacing decrease again. I'll remap.
01:09:635 (1,2,3,4,5) - again random spacing decrease. Ditto.


Sorry if the mod was cruddy. haven't done in in almost a week.

The Health Bar is great

• Seems fine.

1. 00:34:831 (1,3) - That's quite nazi of me, but it struck me when playing: make these symmetrical ? One of their ends has a sharper curve than the other.
2. 00:43:532 (1) - That spinner is quite short, for an Easy... And you could easily extend it more (like 2/1) should you silence the end.
3. 01:00:934 (5) - Add a new combo here ? It will cut the (quite long) combo a bit, and make sense, since you switch from the offbeat ticks to the main ones. Also would make a "new combo every big white tick" pattern.
4. 01:06:734 (5) - Same ?

1. Having OD higher than AR doesn't make sense. AR is here to help read the timing window determined by OD to get a 300 or a 100 (there's a reason why they were the same setting before...). Using higher OD basically means the information is wrong.
2. 00:29:393 (1) - For consistency with the first pattern, this should start 1/2 later and have only one repeat. It would also be less confusing imo, because kick sliders are quite confusing, since the number of repeats can't be expected, and the cursor hides the repeat arrows, which makes the number of repeats difficult to read.
3. 00:33:743 (1) - Really too short for a spinner in a Normal. Also, why did you use a spinner here, when for this exact same melody, you used circles and sliders before ?
4. 00:58:033 (1) - This note comes too soon after the spinner. Remember new players don't spin well and need time to readjust their aim.

1. 00:18:154 (4,5) - This placement was quite confusing to me, and I git (5) as if it was 1/2 after (4)'s end. That's because I judged the spacing based on (4)'s beginning but not its end
2. 00:37:731 (1,2) - Why are these linear when in this diff (and the other ones) you always used Bézier curves ?
3. 00:46:432 (1) - This slider is entirely covered by the text that pops out after the spinner. Although it does appear before said text pops out, the text covers all the repeats after the first one.
4. 01:08:184 (1,2,3) - Due to stacking, this pattern looks rather bad in-game (2) is moved to the upper left). Unstack (2,3) ?

1. HP drain is really harsh. I sliderbroke twice and died because of it.
2. The speedup sections are extremely surprising, despite the ticks.
3. So are the slow down ones, but that's because the sliders have the same length as the previous ones... but are twice as long in time.

1. 00:20:511 (1) - This spin is really close to (5) imo. Start it at 00:20:691, for example?

1. 00:31:205 (3) - The melody suggests to make this slider with 1 repetition.

1. Really liked the flow of this diffy.
2. 00:55:132 (1) - Try this slider:
   SPOILER

   320,240,55133,6,0,B|420:212|328:96|416:72,2,210,2|2|8

3. 00:56:582 (2) - If you liked it, copy and ctrl-H it here.

1. 00:52:413 (2,3) - That spacing was intentional?
2. 00:55:676 (2,3,4,5) - Try to do something different instead of only stacking?
3. 00:57:126 (2,3,4,5) - ^
4. 00:58:214 (2,3) - Same as the preview spacing issue.
5. 01:04:014 (2,3) - ^

Insane:
00:58:033 (1,2,3) - This pattern looks a bit ugly, reposition note 1 and 2 to form a symmetrical triangle?
01:03:833 (1) - ^
01:06:552 (9) - Remove the stack and position like this? http://puu.sh/4Z2q feels better imo.
Hard:
<!-- Increase HP drain by one? -->
01:17:791 - Add note following the circle pattern here?
Easy:

00:43:168 - add clap note here
00:54:770 - ^

yo,mats are finally here '3'

first of all,shouldn't the source be Shadow the Hedgehog? not a big deal though,I've checked other Sonic related maps and there were both lower and uppercases,but if you can find a correct info from the original source - it'd be awesome

scorebar-colour files don't differ that much,are you sure you need all of them? you could use only scorebar-colour.png file and it'd be fine

and finally SV in Easy.it's the only difficulty with 1,though it makes sense as you use custom tick hitsounds,and SV2 would be awkward..so I suggest to set 1 on all diffs,but it's up to you.I believe it's rankable to have different SVs within mapset

00:23:774 (1) - I didn't really get this rhytm,another repeat at previous white tick (00:23:591) would be easier to read/hit imo

00:58:033 (1,2,3,4,1) - there's an osu! bag,when you stack 2 or more sliders - stacking doesn't occur at all..so we were asked to force mappers to fix such moments:

01:15:797 (1) - shorten by 1/2? it'd fit the rhytm much more

00:23:410 (1) - flip it vertically to clear out the reverse arrow? cause it's hard to recognize it under 00:22:866 (8)-th slider,seriously
00:58:576 (4) - so many repeats were a bit unexpected,I thought there're only 2..and it sounds better anyway. so could you cut repeats at 00:58:758 and add another note to 00:58:939 (5) then
