What is spread, exactly

[madpear]

I don't consider myself a noob, but this is definitely a noob question.

I use D-pad 2 hands, right hand index on up, right hand middle on right, left hand index on down, and left hand middle on left.

Everyone says spread is great, and I believe it, and I even think that I might be using it and not knowing it. But what I want to know is exactly what the definition is, and what people like Shashakiro use exactly.

Thanks

Spread is using 2 fingers from both hands. It is different to 4-finger because you spread your hands out normally.

A common spread-setup on FFR is left arrow-down arrow-num8-num6.

Shashakiro uses left down, num8, num6. Which is spread.

Well then what do you call what madpear is using? That's what I use because it's just simpler.

Cool, I'll probably try that method out, thanks.

Re: What is spread, exactly

If you don't like regular spread, which is left down num6 num8, you can always try key mapping. There is a thread about it in FFR general talk I believe.

Yeah, so I'm hitting a lot of up/right trills more easily now.
