GENERAL SERUM (M0nkeyz) [7.5/10]
- Perms, metadata, sync are good
8.762 - 4th, not 32nd
30.925 - Should be on col 2
1:01.984, 1:04.544, 1:07.104 - Missing jumps? I could hear the noise there
*1:11.584-1:11.798 & other instances of this - The beginning of each part of this is a 4th>12th>16th. Adjust accordingly with the next iterations
1:14.824 - This should be a 48th note prior to the 4th. Same applies to 1:16.104
1:15.158-1:15.264 - Those 24ths are ghost notes
1:20.064 - And this one is missing 24ths
1:21.184 - ^
2:22.622 & other instaces of this - 24th, not 32nd
2:53.226 - Should be 432. Compare section 2:51.687, 2:57.841, 2:59.379 etc
*3:15.335-3:20.744 - The jump usage here is kinda weird (two sets repeating for different tones, 3:16.844-3:17.492 & 3:18.304-3:18.928). Vary it up a bit
*3:24.944-3:26.108 - Yeah that's too much. Arguably the spikiest section in the file. Try to dial it down a bit
3:33.754 - Not ascending roll?
3:40.454 - Missing note
Damn what an epic tune. This was done solely on a midi? That's insane.
File is overall coherent. But I feel like there are some rough edges that still need some polishing. You can see some of those in my notes, especially the ones that are * which means CR. Give this file a double check, adjust some stuff and then it's good to go.

GENERAL SERUM (M0nkeyz) [8/10]
PERMS OK
SYNC OK
6.137: Same triplet timing as 5.537. Should start here. Same applies to 6.737 and the other iterations. Additionally, 8.237 should also start on that 32nd.
9.625-10.825 & 19.225-20.425 & 24.025-25.225: Consider adding approximated 12ths polys there (or maybe straight 16ths as last option) for the buildups; they're quite uneventful as is and it would improve the difficulty curve of that first minute relative to the rest. The rising nature of the buildups relative to each other also would lend itself well to nice PR representation.
18.775: Missing note.
50.785 & 50.945: Jumps? Same for 53.345 & 53.505.
57.505-58.708: This is fine as is, but consider using a mix of single notes too to give more emphasis to the motif of the section. For example, the notes 57.665, 57.906, 58.307, 58.548 could be singles. Just an idea.
1:16.704-1:17.024: Just two notes between these 4ths. Maybe not 12ths exactly like 1:11.691, but close.
1:21.384: Missing flam?
1:41.824: Single.
1:52.830 & 1:53.180 & etc: Ehhh, this is justifiable but it really feels underwhelming for how intense the song's section is. Would at the Very least expect either 16ths minijacks or the 8ths to be layered to the wubs. This is (partly subjectively) the biggest miss of the chart.
2:03.652: Missing 24ths.
2:17.371: Could underlayer this to a single and make it a flam or 3-notes burst to reflect the chiptune echo. Same for 2:28.675.
3.18.928: PR, do the same as 3:20.319 here instead.
3:25.552: From here the 32nds could be replaced by 32nds minijacks alternating on each hand to better represent the song than just a long jumptrillable wall. Subjective though.
This is so incredibly varied, really fun to play. Couple of minor things to look at here and there but for the song length it's pretty well executed. Great job.

Deam:
8.762: Changed.
30.925: Changed.
61.984, 64.544, 67.104: I only really hear them on lower rates, I had them in initially but it created a density I didn't really like.
*71.584-71.798 & other instances of this: I had the 16th in initially but it played awfully imo. For the sake of flow and fun I excluded that note, player won't notice.
74.824: There's a note on the 48th before the 4th, but im not following that note.
75.158-75.264: Fixed.
80.064 (and next note): Fixed.
142.622 & other instaces of this: Listening to it on all kinds of speeds, this is definitely not a 24th, it might be slightly earlier than 32nd but not worth changing.
173.226: Not all of the notes here land on the same spot, I'm playing around with the sequence here. I don't think it's worth changing.
*195.335-200.744: Okidoki
*204.944-206.108: It's just a jumptrill
213.754: Hard to make it ascending with the final note (4th jump) being on the right.
220.454: Added.
OP:
6.137: Changed.
9.625-10.825 & 19.225-20.425 & 24.025-25.225: That comes really close to dumping and I'm not a huge fan of dumping like this.
18.775: Not hearing the percussion there.
50.785 & 50.945: Jump = kickdrum for this section.
57.505-58.708: Cool idea, I tried it but it didn't feel entirely right to me..
76.704-77.024: I know... I know these notes aren't entirely accurate, but making it accurate like deam suggested made it feel awful to me. Having evenly gapped notes there makes it play so much better. I prefer not changing it if I don't have to.
81.384: Yea added.
101.824: Oops, changed back to single.
112.830 & 113.180: Don't really want to dump the wubs here.
123.652: Not hearing them.
137.371: I generally don't step echoes or delays in my charts unless there's nothing else going on.
3.18.928: Changed this section around a bit.
205.552: 32nd minijacks at 190+ bpm? HUH?
Thanks for the notes
