My Trains
---------
Permissions, sync, and metadata good.

- 0.682: Not sure why you break the minijack motif here but not at 2.863 or 7.227, I can't really hear a difference in the jump PR. Similarly, you follow it at 5.590 but not 3.409 etc.
- 5.045: You break the motif again here, and the jump PR is incorrect: this is the same sound as the previous jump, not the next one (which is lower).
- 16.704: What are these two notes going to? Seems odd considering 15.817, where you approximate a vocal-percussion flam by a jump, and I can't really see what else it would be accenting. If it is percussion or melody then this is in the wrong place as well.
- 33.408: These 48ths seem like way overkill to me tbh. Why does this deserve more emphasis than 32.317? It can't be the background ringing because that came in the beat previous and wasn't followed there.
* 44.999, 45.271, etc.: Please account for the swing here!! These are 22ms off, and it's very noticeable when playing.
- 46.635, 50.998, etc.: I'm down for jacks to the "chugga chugga", but these ones don't really make a whole lot of sense... my personal suggestion would be two minijacks, one for each "chugga", and rearrange the hands around them.
- 62.589: I have to put this down to 20% to have any idea what this is for. Highly recommend just doing a jump (and the following 64th swing note for the hi-hat) here.
- 63.680: Higher than 63.407. The melody of the next jump is the same as 63.407 (but you might want to do something to accent the clap or vocals also).
- 65.468: This rhythm is done quite differently from 11.999 for no apparent reason, make em consistent.
- 68.043: I get approximation, but this gets really far from what the vocals are actually doing, by ~25ms at 68.487 for instance. Please make this a bit more faithful.
- 70.680: Should be 64th previous
- 75.407: Completely different sound from previous jump, but both are [14] jumps.
- 76.498: Might recommend 24ths until the 8th instead to accent the scratch after, but this is fine as is
- 80.316: Hand here? Compare with 83.589.
- 87.543, 87.816: This is swing, not straight 16ths
- 92.316: What are these 24ths for?
* 97.770: Notes 44.999, 46.635 apply to this section too.
- 116.679, 117.770: Assuming these are for the little pitch bends, but they're so quiet that I'd recommend just removing them.
- 123.679: Advise moving this to column 1 because it's lower than the hi-hats you follow on columns 2 and 3 in this section.
- 143.588: Watch out for the column 3 anchor here.
- 151.122: Weirdly tight minijack here, especially because this sound actually starts a bit earlier.

- I can't say I'm a fan of the burst usage in this file... they are by far the toughest part of the chart, and several of them go to fairly soft noises which certainly don't seem when playing like they really deserve that much emphasis. For example, the blips at 42.135 which you follow by 3-note 48th flams are so much not the focus of the song, but they dominate the chart. This is just one example of many. Your usage of jacks to accent the vocals was well done, though. [5.5/10]
