- 16.229-16.729, etc.: subjective but imo the pitch change is inaudible at 1.0x
- 30.179: missing, see 35.779
** 51.229-1:04.029: doing a jack at this speed into hand several times in a row, sometimes on the same hand, is impossible. I don't think there is much room for jacks here; trills (e.g. 323[124]) or minijack-minitrills (e.g. 332[134]) would be better.
- 1:04.229-1:07.029 and 1:07.762-1:09.029 are stepping different sounds
** 1:32.429 is impossible for the same reason. Please break it into 2+2 or 3+1.

Personally I find layering to be lacking, but it's understandable if the jack challenge is the focus. Regardless, there's a pretty big spike in the middle that should be nerfed. A 24th 3-jack in isolation is fine, it's multiple 3-jacks in a row & a 4-jack that become problematic.

Electric Blue 404 [7/10] [Fixes Required]

- Perms, sync, metadata are good.

00:12.629: Would have been nice to have this a flam

00:38.429: * This jack is a tad too long. I'd highly recommend moving the hand away from col 1 to make it less long. You don't hear that sound at this hand

00:56.029: ** This is very rough to execute because of the prolonged jack on the right hand. You need to split the transition from the 24th jacks and the jacks after it into two different hands (e.g. the next jacks should be on col 1). Compare with 01:02.429

01:04.229: * Technically not correct to the sound. But I guess you did that intentionally. Though, I'd highly suggest to rework this section so it accurately represents the descending sound.

01:17.628: Would have been nice to have this a flam

01:36.829: Same thing as 00:38.429. Recommended to limit your longjacks to 6-notes only

>> Straightforward & consistent. I get that the whole shtick of it are the bursty 24th jacks and 16th longjacks, and it's relatively easy to cheese the former. While this is very well made, the only reason I'm putting it as a 7/10 because I'm not sure how the community will enjoy it, and with the FR note, it definitely impacts it a lot.

FR on ** notes, CR on * notes.

For jh~

30.179 - Idgi. I hear a melody note for 35.779, but nothing for 30.179
**51.229-1:04.029 - Nerfed all 24th jacks to 24th minijack-trill
1:04.229-1:07.029/1:07.762-1:09.029 - The former was going to the percussion (10% audible). The latter was going to the laser, which does make it confusing on what I'm stepping, so I'll just remove the latter part
**1:32.429 - Nerfed to 24th minijack-trill

For Deam~

12.629 - Added
38.429 - Changed
**56.029 - Nerfed all 24th jacks to 24th minijack-trills
1:04.229 - The descending noise is going to the percussion, not the laser. Audible in 10% speed
1:17.628 - Added
1:36.829 - I was ok w/ changing 38.429 since there was no other jack patterns after that. But if I change it here, then the jack PR for the other noise would conflict by also going to [3]

A new chart file was uploaded with the following changes:
----------
Note Count changed: 1160 => 1157
AVG NPS changed: 11.161 => 11.13214
Hand Bias changed: -8 => 7

I didn't expect the drastic nerf of the 24th jacks, but fixes look good to me.
