I think i have a problem

[Xezial]

When i play ffr, i use 2 hand spread, middle and index on both hands, and my ring finger and pinky stick up off the keyboard
lately, i've been getting tons of pains in my left pink and ring finger after only a few songs. in fact, typing this right now is a real pain. how should i train my fingers to stay down? or stop hurting?

Re: I think i have a problem

My pinky and ring finger is up, and I think that's okay to do, but if you strain them too high up, then it's a problem...just let them hang in the air in a natural position. My fingers up feels weird, and sometimes I want to keep them down, but I can't play ffr as well. u.u

Re: I think i have a problem

I'm not EXACTLY how much i do it, but i know i keep all my fingers off the keys for some parts of songs. And unless it's a very fast part or song, i keep them in the air, and it doesn't hurt so i dunno maybe your just weak. ^_^ No but really, it could just be how hard you hit the keys, considering people here break large numbers of keyboards. I've played a huge share of games and never even broke a button.

EDIT: Actually, i do recall one day my pinky was jerking in and out of place (not the finger itself but the joint that connects my hand to my finger). But I'm almost positive that was from football practice and not FFR...
