Please help me improve my DragonForce sims.
When I mention sims in the plural form I'm referring to future sims as presently I've only made one.
Now I need somebody to really critique every detail of my sim ideally. I was criticized on the layering. As I understood it layering refers to what instrument you sync to and the conversion to another one. Frequently I mixed up the guitar with the drums to make things more interesting. Was that a bad idea? What should I have synced to?
Here's a copy of the description to cover some more details:
"So this starts off pretty slow excluding the jacks near the intro. 24ths are isolated to only two places: one near the intro and the other in the main solo. Many of the beats are difficult to hear, so the syncing may seem questionable at points (although it is accurate). Pretty unbiased steps IMO (or perhaps I'm just oblivious from doing it this way for so long). The song's not quite finished although it does include the climax being the solo. It's approximately 6.5 minutes long and ends just before repeating the beginning again. If you want a full version I'll probably do that later. There's a 50% tempo reduction in the intro to show the relative speed. Originally I thought this sim's never been stepped before. So after finding out otherwise I'd like to know which one you guys prefer. I never played the other one. Please let me know how this one compares. Thanks, guys, and God bless!"

I wanna "master" DragonForce and create a 10/10 file. What should I have done differently?
All criticism appreciated! Thanks.

. I'm trying to find what the majority likes. Like on one sim I'll make a very detailed pattern and somebody will say I should "change it up" more. Then when I "loosen" the patterns people say it's too randomized.
