1. soft-sliderslide for some part are noisy in my ear, you may need a blank one as customer hitsound. http://puu.sh/ZicD

Actually, already using a silent slider slide with N:C1. I feel the slider slide sound fits well with most of the song except for the beginning. However, I decide to use it for two more places in Insane as it does sound a bit too loud for those places. If you feel other places are too loud, please mention them.

1. 00:11:120 (4) - this triple sounds not good Hmm, all the notes follow a sound,maybe the end not so much, but blue tick > red tick transition definitely feel weird so this rhythm is better for gameplay. I adjust the 50% timing point to begin on the repeat through, maybe the blue tick hitsound doesn't sound good here.
2. 01:15:377 (2,3,4) - this is a bit out of music. try end 01:15:884 (3) - to 01:15:985 to make it sound better? I find that 1/4 gap between (3) & (4), following your suggestion a bit sudden. I think current rhythm leaves a more gradual feel and I feel the song here is more gradual than abrupt.
3. 00:45:174 (7,8,1) - NC 7 and unNC 1. Definitely want to emphasis the instrument that begins on 00:45:985 here so make sense to me.
4. 00:54:499 (4,5) - exchange them? in earlier part you all use sliders for heavy beat like 00:54:499. You are right that I use a slider for the strong beat, but I want to follow the vocal here, this is the only part where the vocal sing this rhythm so this is why the same rhythm wasn't reused anywhere else. I don't think this is confusing to play so I'll leave this.

Insane is kind of lacking patterns and creativity, which is I was expecting for. the spacing is a little bit too much for AR8 but not bad.
Normal is very well done, I like it.

Hm, for this Insane in particular, I really like the flow. I think this is my best Insane in term of flow yet. I don't think all patterns are uncreative, there are definitely some pattern which I think are nice. When listening to the song, I find a simple clean mapping style to be the most fitting so I just used patterns I know works well in general. I'm overall happy with this Insane as I feel it manage to achieve the goals I set for this diff which is simple clean patterns. I'm working on making my spacing a bit more reasonable, but it depends on the song through and how I feel it should be mapped.

- The slider speed seems a little too fast...
- And basically that's it, the speed seems to fast and may be consider by some players as a setting for a normal+ since the notes are also far from each other (but that goes well with the current speed) anyways, nothing wrong I don't really agree with this, slider velocity feel perfect for me except for the beginning part. It does feel a little fast there, but slider velocity change can be confusing so I chose to avoid it. Also I find slider velocity fits well with the spread (Easy = 1.0sv, Hard =1.7sv so the perfect slider velocity is 1.35sv, since I don't like to use 0.0x I decide to round it to 1.4sv). I'll consider some points for future maps, but I definitely feel this is fine.

- 00:45:377 ~ Shorten by 1/4 and maybe add 2 repeats? I'm not sure if it sounds better with them or not I tried this, but it feel weird to hit 00:45:985 (1) because of the kick slider. I didn't use a single one on the map. Also listening to this at 0.25x playback, I can't hear anything on the blue ticks. Since I don't think I overmap anywhere, I think I shouldn't do this.
