2016-11-27 02:23 EYA-: Hi protastic o/
2016-11-27 02:23 Protastic101: hey
2016-11-27 02:23 EYA-: Can i ask u about mod some stuff?
2016-11-27 02:24 Protastic101: Like asking for a mod or just questions in general?
2016-11-27 02:24 Protastic101: Cause I can answer short stuff, but I'm too lazy to actively check a map right now lol
2016-11-27 02:24 EYA-: asking for mod
2016-11-27 02:25 Protastic101: what map?
2016-11-27 02:25 EYA-: ACTION is editing [https://osu.ppy.sh/b/1132098 Team Grimoire - Grimoire of Darkness [Danse ou Meurs]]
2016-11-27 02:26 Protastic101: oh dear
2016-11-27 02:26 EYA-: wa?
2016-11-27 02:28 Protastic101: Idk, some of the repeating jacks like 02:13:439 (133439|1,133520|1) - are pretty uncomfortable imo. Then the sounds like 02:19:520 (139520|3,139601|2,139682|1,139763|0,139763|3,139844|2,139925|1,140006|0) - where there's no 1/4 sound in the music, meaning those notes like 02:19:520 (139520|3,139682|1,139844|2,140006|0) - are ghosts
2016-11-27 02:29 Protastic101: 02:25:114 (145114|3,145114|2,145168|0,145168|1,145222|3,145222|2,145276|1,145276|0) - then this just seems a little overkill as a simple roll would be better because the minijumptrill is just excessive to use past 1/4 at this BPM in my opinion
2016-11-27 02:29 EYA-: oh
2016-11-27 02:29 Protastic101: 02:28:520 (148520|3,148520|1,148520|0,148520|2,148844|3,148844|2,148844|0,148844|1,149087|3,149087|2,149087|1,149087|0,149331|3,149331|0,149331|2,149331|1,149493|3,149493|1,149493|2,149493|0) - for these sounds, it'd be more appropriate to use triples because then you could vary the chord to represent pitch
2016-11-27 02:31 Protastic101: 02:38:249 (158249|0,158276|1,158303|3,158331|2,158358|0,158385|1,158412|3,158439|2,158466|0,158493|1,158520|3,158547|2) - this is definitely not 1/12 I'm sure
2016-11-27 02:32 EYA-: sure?
2016-11-27 02:32 EYA-: aaaa
2016-11-27 02:32 Protastic101: It's probably 1/6 or something, but either way, I'd simplify the snaps a little as using 1/12 seems like too much
2016-11-27 02:33 EYA-: can i use 1/8?
2016-11-27 02:33 Protastic101: I highly doubt it's 1/8
2016-11-27 02:33 EYA-: its probably impossible to understand true snap
2016-11-27 02:33 Protastic101: Yes, but 1/6 sounds closest I think
2016-11-27 02:34 Protastic101: 03:13:682 (193682|1,193763|0,193844|3,194006|0,194331|2) - also, notes like these are also ghosts and mapped to nothing
2016-11-27 02:35 Protastic101: 03:32:412 - I also feel that the jumptrill here is too long and that you should split it into two different chord types here like this
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/66693502016-11-27 02:35 EYA-: not to break continuity of part i think
2016-11-27 02:36 Protastic101: The pitch of the synth or whatever changes there, so I think it's appropriate
2016-11-27 02:36 Protastic101: Anyways, just in general, a lot of this chart feels overchorded or has a lot of ghost notes
2016-11-27 02:37 Protastic101: 01:53:817 (113817|0,113844|1,113871|3,113898|2,113925|0,113952|1,113979|3,114006|2,114033|0,114060|1,114087|3,114114|2,114141|0,114168|1,114195|3,114222|2,114249|0,114276|1,114303|3,114331|2,114358|0,114385|1,114412|3,114439|2) - also, why
2016-11-27 02:37 EYA-: ok
2016-11-27 02:37 EYA-: thx
2016-11-27 02:37 Protastic101: Are you representing the long sound with short notes?
2016-11-27 02:37 EYA-: i dont know
2016-11-27 02:38 EYA-: \o/
2016-11-27 02:38 Protastic101: Cause while I think that's kind of ok for bass dubs or wubs, for a sound as smooth as this, a single LN is more fitting
2016-11-27 02:38 Protastic101: I mean, just removing that 1/12 burst brought the SR down from 5.14* to 4.98*
2016-11-27 02:39 EYA-: yep
2016-11-27 02:39 Protastic101: So I'm kind of getting this feeling that it's done just to inflate the SR to be a little higher than it should be
2016-11-27 02:40 Protastic101: 01:00:547 (60547|3,60547|1,60871|0,60871|3,60952|1,60952|2,61195|1,61195|2) - and etc. For piano sounds like this, I think using a single note if it's followed by a jump is fine too
2016-11-27 02:40 Protastic101: the kick should get the emphasis here, so they shouldn't be chorded the same I think
2016-11-27 02:41 Protastic101: Besides, you could make the snares like 01:04:520 (64520|1,64520|3) - triples this way, by using patterns like this
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/66693752016-11-27 02:41 EYA-: like this?
2016-11-27 02:41 EYA-:
https://puu.sh/svUQu/2560b78a81.jpg2016-11-27 02:41 Protastic101: Yeah
2016-11-27 02:43 Protastic101: 01:08:087 (68087|2,68195|1,68303|2,68412|1,68520|2,68628|1,68736|2,68844|1,68952|2,69060|1,69168|2,69276|1,69385|2,69493|1,69601|2,69709|1,69817|2,69925|1,70033|2,70141|1,70249|2,70358|1) - I also think that you should vary this trill as it's repetitive to play for so long, and the pitch of the piano doesn't alternate consistently between only two notes
2016-11-27 02:45 Protastic101:
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/6669389 Here's an idea of what you could do instead
2016-11-27 02:46 EYA-: ~done
2016-11-27 02:47 EYA-: should i change pattern before this point
2016-11-27 02:47 EYA-: ?
2016-11-27 02:47 EYA-: 01:00:303 -
2016-11-27 02:47 EYA-:
https://puu.sh/svV2r/423a0de603.jpg2016-11-27 02:47 Protastic101: 01:30:790 (90790|3,90817|2,90844|1,90871|0,90898|3,90925|2,90952|1,90979|0,91006|3,91033|2,91060|1,91087|0) - also, again, feels pretty overkill for the sound it's supposed to represent
2016-11-27 02:47 EYA-:
https://puu.sh/svV2R/64c6eb78c2.jpg2016-11-27 02:47 Protastic101: Yeah, that's great
2016-11-27 02:52 Protastic101: 01:51:222 (111222|2,111385|2,111547|2,111709|2,111871|2,112033|2,112195|2,112358|2) - also, do take note of how long your note stacks get
2016-11-27 02:52 Protastic101: I'd say 4 notes long is the largest you should get to before varying the patterns to avoid ti
2016-11-27 02:52 Protastic101: it*
2016-11-27 02:54 Protastic101: So uhm, yeah
2016-11-27 02:54 Protastic101: To summarize:
2016-11-27 02:54 Protastic101: 1. If it's a smooth and long sound, just use a long note, don't use a 1/12 burst.
2016-11-27 02:55 Protastic101: 2. reduce some of the doubles in the beginning to single notes, in order to better accent the snares with triples and kicks with doubles
2016-11-27 02:55 EYA-: yes sir
2016-11-27 02:55 Protastic101: 3. Reduce some of the chord sizes, like those quads I mentioned earlier to triples, in order to better represent pitch
2016-11-27 02:56 Protastic101: 4. A lot of the 1/4 streams starting at 01:33:709 - are ghosts, (but not all, like 01:35:655 (95655|1,95736|0,95817|1,95898|0,95979|1) - )
2016-11-27 02:56 Protastic101: so remove the ghost notes
2016-11-27 02:57 Protastic101: 5. Jacks are stuff should be used carefully to avoid making uncomfortable patterns, and it's ok to break chord size consistency if you have to (like jump-single-hand is better in lieu of jump-jump-hand)
2016-11-27 02:58 Protastic101: Sorry, I can't mod in detail right now, but I'm about to go to bed lol
2016-11-27 02:58 EYA-: i have already done a lot
2016-11-27 02:58 EYA-: thx
2016-11-27 02:59 Protastic101: I'll try to take a closer look this weekend or something, or i might just ask my friend to look at it instead
2016-11-27 03:00 Protastic101: Do you want me to post log or nah?
2016-11-27 03:01 EYA-: as you wish
2016-11-27 03:01 EYA-: free kudos ha ha
