Good Luck Monstrata!
IRC Log
21:44 ByBy: i'm free now ^^
21:44 Monstrata: okay :D
21:45 ByBy: just some rhythms suggestions at the beginning of the song (you will deny them for sure)
21:46 Monstrata: okay~ :D
21:46 ByBy: 00:07:724 (1)- you can end this slider on 00:08:153 - and then you can add a repeat to give emphasis to the downbeat
21:47 ByBy: 00:11:143 (1)- both vocal and piano are in continuous extension so would be better to move the end of the slider to 00:11:785 -
21:48 Monstrata: hmm
21:48 Monstrata: for both... i prefer to keep rhythm simpler since the intro is so quiet haha
21:48 Monstrata: calm = simpler rhythm and clicking/releasing
21:49 ByBy: I know uwu
21:49 ByBy: I see that you're following the piano
21:49 ByBy: and a little vocal
21:49 ByBy: *the vocal
21:49 Monstrata: yea
21:50 Monstrata: im also trying to keep rhythm simple to match the tone of the section though haha
21:50 ByBy: I see xD
21:50 ByBy: 00:28:710 (2)- move the slider a bit to right for improving the blanket with the previous slider 00:28:282 (1)-
21:50 ByBy: the blanket looks a bit off
21:51 ByBy: 00:31:710 (1,2,3,4)- I guess the same *blankets*
21:52 Monstrata: oh yea
21:52 Monstrata: moved 00:29:782 (4) - instea xD
21:52 Monstrata: fixed the others too
21:52 ByBy: oki xD
21:53 ByBy: 00:40:710 (1,1)- rip blanket ;w;
21:54 Monstrata: fixed
21:55 ByBy: 00:41:996 (1)- the slider itself sounds fine, even if it doesn't end on vocal (on 1/4 tick which sounds a bit 'weird').The slider stops exactly on the *i guess it's a drum* oh well, on a noticeable beat.
21:56 ByBy: I saw that the modders started to complain about it.
21:56 ByBy: 00:51:210 (2,3,4)- blanket thingy.
21:58 ByBy: 00:54:210 (1)- Maybe remove the NC? It isn't like 00:47:139 (1)- which have the NC for the sake of readability
22:00 Monstrata: yea the slider stops on the drum thats why xD
22:00 Monstrata: fixed blankets
22:00 ByBy: 01:10:067 (2)- Try to move the note a bit to left for improving the blanket xD.
22:00 ByBy: oki
22:00 Monstrata: and fixed NC
22:00 Monstrata: okay moved :D
22:01 ByBy: alrighty :D
22:03 ByBy: 01:22:710 (4,5)- Maybe increase the spacing here a bit? It is pretty obvious that the vocal starts to intensify on 01:22:924 (5)- and a *little* jump would give some emphasis.
22:04 ByBy: eeh nvm
22:05 Monstrata: eeh xD
22:06 ByBy: 01:33:424 (2)- not a perfect stack with 01:29:567 (5)-'s head :x.
22:06 Monstrata: wait
22:06 Monstrata: i think you mean another slide
22:07 Monstrata: oh ok i see it
22:07 Monstrata: fixed xD
22:07 ByBy: okay xD
22:07 Monstrata: i think u mean 01:30:424 (2) - xD
22:07 ByBy: yes
22:07 ByBy: xD
22:10 ByBy: 01:50:990 (3)- Move it a bit up for improving the blanket with 01:51:419 (5)- plus the note is overlapping with the stream 01:50:133 (7,8,9,10,1)- and the overlapping doesn't look really good :/.
22:11 Monstrata: o ya
22:11 Monstrata: fixed
22:22 ByBy: 02:02:133 (1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3)- it took me many times to get used with this pattern.Maybe you can ask for testplay to see if this pattern is 100% fine.
22:25 Monstrata: hmmm
22:26 Monstrata: i relaly like how those play tho xD
22:26 Monstrata: like the squares xD
22:26 ByBy: I see =v=
22:26 ByBy: they play fine indeed but at first play I got confused.maybe because is misleaded the (4)- in row
22:29 Monstrata: maybe xD
22:29 ByBy: 02:13:276 (1,2)- Intentional unstack?In addition, the NC from 02:13:276 (1)- looks kinda useless.I suggest to swap the NCs (remove the NC from (1)- , add the NC on (2)-)
22:30 Monstrata: yea
22:30 Monstrata: intentional overlap like that heh
22:31 ByBy: i see
22:31 Monstrata: also fixed ncs
22:32 ByBy: 02:33:419 (1)- remove NC?
22:37 Monstrata: ya
22:44 ByBy: 03:38:776 (2)- i know you're following the piano but it looks quite weird to ignore the stronger drums :/.
23:00 ByBy: 04:03:848 (3,1)- Having these stacked makes zero sense to the stronger vocal and piano.They're not same as the other stacked objects *where's a bit break between them*.Just my thought but I think you have to unstack them to give proper emphasis to the stronger vocal and piano
23:02 Monstrata: hmm
23:02 Monstrata: first one okay, changed
23:02 Monstrata: 04:03:848 (3,1) - though
23:02 Monstrata: i want to do a stack for some variety cuz i think a break there also works
23:02 ByBy: oki
23:02 ByBy: also about the first one, it's not the only *pattern* where you are ignoring the drums
23:02 Monstrata: idk its like i follow emphasis properly for like 95% of the map so i want to have some places where i put some variety and stop/go movements xD
23:03 ByBy: check that part carefully.you're ignoring the drums really much there :/
23:03 ByBy: I see xD
23:03 Monstrata: hmm
23:03 Monstrata: im focussing on other instruments there though ;c
23:03 ByBy: yeah i see ;c
23:04 ByBy: well some are not really stronger but others are
23:04 ByBy: so pay attention next time I guess.
23:04 Monstrata: the thing is the other instruments aren't following the same rhythm as the drums
23:04 ByBy: yeah
23:04 Monstrata: and i already follow drums a lot in kiai so i thought its better to follow something different haha for some variety
23:04 Monstrata: and to map a new layer of the song
23:04 Monstrata: okay
23:04 Monstrata: :D
23:06 ByBy: 05:24:846 (1)- really weird to end mapping here since the song is still going :(
23:06 ByBy: also I noticed that on 05:07:275 (6,7,8,9,1)- you're using different spacing than other streams ;c
23:07 ByBy: i'm not sure if that's fine
23:07 ByBy: to not use the same spacing for all streams from a difficulty
23:08 Monstrata: its fine
23:08 Monstrata: variety in spacing xD
23:08 Monstrata: and yea at the end
23:08 ByBy: oh i see xD
23:08 Monstrata: i just wanted it to be a circle so its like
23:08 Monstrata: a rain drop or something xD
23:08 Monstrata: since thats what it sounds like
23:08 ByBy: i see :o
23:08 Monstrata: fits the bg too :D
23:08 ByBy: yes it does :)
23:08 Monstrata: :DDD
23:09 ByBy: xD
23:09 ByBy: and I think that's all
23:09 ByBy: :))
23:09 Monstrata: aah
23:09 Monstrata: fixed a lot, thanks byby :D
23:09 ByBy: np :)
Good Luck Monstrata!
