    Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

    Don't remember what it's called, but...

    left- right hand, index finger
    up- right hand, middle finger
    right- right hand, ring finger
    down- left hand, index finger

    I know quite a few people that use this.

          Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

          When I do one hand (right handed) I use the 4 fingers in a different position than what Billydude said. I posted this position several times in other threads. Consider:

          left arrow = thumb
          down arrow = index
          up arrow = middle
          right arrow = ring

          Again, this is certainly not as comfortable as two hands (feels cramped), but I can't see myself using the thumb for the down arrow.

            I play index and I think the transitions are smoother between arrows, but I don't have the finger speed to hit faster songs...is that natural for index? Or should I try some one handed play? I've played over a year and have always been an index player.

              Yeah, that's okay. You should stick with index, index is actually a good way to play. Just practice some songs like Stalled Out and Sushi Bars and you'll get better at it.

                Thanks, I'll try those...so far speed wise, I can FC standards and on the verge of grabbing them with trickies, but I play a lot of the very difficult-very challenging, just finishing. It seems that with songs such as Rose, my fingers just don't want to respond to the larger chains, its quite frustrating as I it seems my progression has been dampening.

                  3 fingered two hand: This is the hand position that mostly average/pretty good players use.

                  Fingering:
                  Dominant hand index finger goes on: alternates on up and down arrow key v ^
                  Dominant hand middle finger goes on: right arrow key >
                  Off hand index finger goes on: left arrow key <

                  Advantages:
                  1. It is less draining than one handed.
                  2. Quick jumps and 16ths are easier.

                  Disadvantages:
                  1. It is harder to do up-down and left-up jumps.
                  2. Players have to temporarily switch to index to do rolls/staircases.

                  EDIT: Realized I forgot to change advantages.

                              Um... I play 4 finger on arrow keys. Not spread. It makes it easy to switch to index for trills that would be on the same hand for spread.
