Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
Although grace notes can be used as a trill see "Impromptu op. 142 no.8 by Franz Schubert." I'm playing that piece on the piano and it doesn't say tr directly below the grace note on the music itself, but below the beginning of the measure.
Arpeggios are basically chords that are broken down. Like C minor has a C Eflat and a G you can play G C E flat C Eflat G in a broken form and call it an arpeggio. However most trills I play are really fast and usually the trills I play are 5 notes long (eighth with 4 sixteenths slurred together). Also trills can be composed of 3 different notes, not always the regular two like C D C D C D C B C, depending on what key you play on first. Edit: the thing is called a turn or an ornament.. I wasn't too sure about the name. Last edited by LJRoX; 02-10-2011 at 02:58 AM.. |

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
Nice updates. A few little fixes:
1) 12th, 24th, and 48th notes give rhythms of 12, 24, and 48 beats per measure, but you have 10, 20, and 40 listed. 2) Instead of doing the 1.e.&.a.2. etc thing, which would be really confusing to someone who wasn't used to it, maybe it would be better if you gave a picture of the rhythm. So like for 32nds you could give 8 arrows at 32nd intervals: red, orange, yellow, orange, blue, orange, yellow, orange. 3) I don't think a .dwi conversion error can turn a 4th note into a 192nd note, although I have heard of a converter that switched 64ths and 192nds.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
I don't think it did happen to 11ELEVEN. I have the SM file and there are the same number of 192nds as in FFR.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
But I think he meant that those 192nds, as you said in the other thread, shouldn't be 192nds thanks to an error.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
I've seen entire files turn white before, they're definitely the result of some type of conversion error.
What you said in the AAA tips thread:

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
I must have explained badly. The rhythm is 48th gallops, but the stepauthor (0) put them all a 192nd off for effect.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
just did an omniflag on One More Night today, how embarrasing, had to miss on one of those trill notes which freaked me out and caused me to do an average, a good, and a boo. mistakes come in bundles.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
apparently there was an older thread of this that someone bumped and I didn't even realize it.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
I'm sorry. I was looking for info and searched on google and the old thread was the one that came up.
I was trying to figure out why the velocity engine was showing songs that I had AAA'd when I clicked hide full combo's.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
The database doesn't consider a AAA as an FC, so a query will just return one of the three 'states': non-FC, FC, or AAA.
A trick for getting something like "all non-FC'd songs of difficulty 8" is setting it to hide all and checking every other difficulty and hide AAAs and FCs. That's my favourite sort for spamming FCs |

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
For 12th notes, you could add that, because stepcharts are written in 4/4 time, 12th notes carry the beat when you step a waltz or anything in 3/4 time. They also occur when 12th swing is used in 4/4 time.
Quote:
You could also add that 192 is 12 * 16, which may make them easier to visualize. (FFR being 1/30 seconds per frame, any two notes 192nd apart will likely be on the same frame at any faster than 37.5 beats per minute.) |

That's a good point - it would probably also be useful to talk about every rhythm in terms of 4th notes, e.g. there are 4 16th intervals in a 4th note interval, 12 48th intervals, and so on.

Re: The Official FFR Picture Dictionary
To update this:
First of all, I don't actually see any explanation of what a jump is! I've heard people calling them "doubles" which is confusing, might be helpful to mention that the term originates from having to jump on a DDR dance pad to hit them. Put the Hands and Quads along with the new Jump definition at the start of the patterns section- it's weird to say learn handstream before knowing what a hand is. Other things to define: Anchors (or whatever the hell you want to call them) and jumpspams/jumpgluts. Just some more common terms people use. Also might be nice to define what FFR means by a "legacy song" as well as terms such as blue-note syndrome. Additionally could be useful to explain some of the settings visually too: what Mirror, Tornado, etc do as well as what the Offset and scroll rate mods affect.
