Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

4 Fingers One Hand V2:


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

Is this a mistake?

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

Not worth a sticky even with pics, already in FAQ.

Pfft, barily. Synth doesn't exlain where to put your fingers.

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

If you are reading the FAQ then best guess is that the only "keys" you will be using are the arrows or the numberpad. So its basically self explanatory. Im not saying this is a bad guide, just a sticky isn't really necessary.

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

Where should I put my fingers?
Do what feels natural to you. The most common play styles are:

"Four-finger": one finger on each key

"Three-finger": index and middle finger on your main hand, index finger only on the other

"Index": both index fingers covering all four keys

"One-hand": three or four fingers on one hand only

Each have their advantages and disadvantages. Try them all to feel what works best for you, and then pick one and stick with it to improve your skill. Most people agree that one-hand is the most difficult, though.

This is all they have on the FAQ. Not nearly as many hand position or details. It never even mentions the num pad actually.

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 <

So a lefty has to cross their fingers over? XD

Fix please

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

Still could use some pictures!
Like a shot of someones keyboard.
And the placement of your fingers on the keyboard shown.

There's standard left right 8 6 spread. I might make other shots later.

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

I'm serious this needs to be stickied. Meaningful bump.

[falcondude]

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

Agreed. Sticky this please.

[Billydude]

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide

Okay, apparently MODs don't check the newbie forum. Which MOD do you think will be most likely to sticky this?

Re: FFR Hand Postitions Guide
