>Perms, metadata, sync good
12.385-12.649 - PR can be better
41.247-42.014 - What are the jumps going to?
44.456/46.688/48.921/51.153 - Why no jump?
45.712/47.944/50.176/54.362/58.827 - Why jump?
1:23.529 - Should be jump. Compare 1:11.881
1:30.942-1:32.033/1:33.851-1:34.942/1:36.760-1:37.851/1:39.669-1:40.760 - Hardest part of the file. Could be nerfed by making it less one-handed biased
1:32.578-1:32.669/1:35.487-1:35.578/1:38.396-1:38.487/1:41.305-1:41.396 - Should be minijack. It’ll differentiate itself from the ongoing JS noise patterns
2:01.542 - Maybe should be jump. Doesn’t have the CymbalCrash to deserve a hand like in 33.293
2:07.251-2:11.160 - What are the jumps going to?
2:14.688 - Missing jump. CymbalCrash
2:16.982 - Missing jump. HardGuitarStrum
>>Mostly straightforward and consistent

- 0:26.875, 0:27.852, ect. The jumps in this section all seem to be for the guitar but These standout as there is no guitar.
- 0:52.409-1:01.339 Coming off the last section i cant help but feel this section is a bit empty. I dont think it needs to be as intense or anything but it feels like a significant drop in difficulty. Something like jumps for the guitar again, which you use right at the end of this section anyway would make sense.
- 2:07.669 These jumps are for the guitar yes? I feel like the jump representation in this stream just doesn't really work all that well, especially towards the end of the stream. I understand you are avoiding this becoming dense JS, but whats here doesn't really work either. I feel the jumps need to be repatterned to better generalize the guitar or a change in layering is needed.
- 2:13.188, 2:17.424 These notes are a clear single held guitar note, so i dont know why they have minijacks as there isn't a second strum.
This is a nice easier take on the file already in game. Though even if its easier, its still quite the formidable chart.

ositz:
12.385-12.649 - Changed 4 note trill to 3 note
41.247-42.104 - Goes to muted guitar
44.457/46.688/48.921 - The guitar here is lower-pitched and is less audible overall, so I omitted the jumps here. You can definitely argue that these can be doubles (not creating minijacks) but I wanted to focus more on the hand biases here.
45.712/47.944/etc. - I used these jumps as a way to start each new phrase. You're right that the jumps don't really go to anything particularly audible here, but I think it's better to have these jumps as a sort of pacing.
1:23.529 - Fixed, I must've thought that it wasn't loud enough or something.
1:30.942/etc - Wanted this to be the hardest part of the chart, but I changed the first double of each minijack to [23] and [14] respectively to make transitioning into the minijacks more manageable.
1:32.578/etc. - Didn't notice this, added minijacks and changed some stuff around.
2:01.542 - changed
2:07.669 - refer to my reply to storn
2:14.688 - Not layering the crashes in this section.
2:16.982 - These technically should create 3-note jacks, and I had 3-note jacks at first, but I changed my mind and kept it as what it currently is at the moment. Jumps are for the start of each guitar chug rhythm.
storn:
26.875/27.852/etc. - The extra jumps here are filler; it's a bit hard to explain but the general idea is that the underlying pulse of the section here is a jump on every 4th (8th in this case), but the guitar note lands on the 8th after in these specific parts, implicitly creating a 3/8th rhythm for only those instances. I added filler jumps to follow the pulse of the song essentially. It's used fairly often in rhythm improvisation, and most players I've asked to try this didn't mind the added jumps here, so I would like to keep these jumps if possible.
52.409-1:01.339 - I personally wanted to emphasise the percussion here, and I think layering both the guitar and percussion (different timbres) together creates this uneven feel of uncoordinated doubles (from guitar) and minijacks (from percussion). I understand where you're coming from regardless, but I don't think the guitar seems to be less pertinent here than in the sections before and after for them to really be layered.
2:07.669 - You got me; this is the part I struggled with the most and I personally have no idea what to actually do here. I'm basically layering every other jump here, and the 8th guitar is represented through 4-note 16th minitrills (to 3-note 16th OH minitrills because 4-note would be too hard) throughout the stream. I tried to clarify the jumps a little bit here, but I did omit some jumps (2:09.897 being one, can't recall the others) and hoped that the hidden minijacks in the 16th patterning are sufficient to figure out what's being emphasised. Going through them felt fine after some changes, but the layering in this is very fast and loose so I totally get what you feel that the jump representation doesn't work here. It's a feel thing.
2:13.188/2:17.424 - I used minijacks for parts with just one chug in the intro as well, like 3.916 and 6.739.
