I usually try to hit those trills fast but then thats also reason for my recent switch to index 
The trills in 4finger are a lot harder than in index.

You will be able to hit fast trills with spread as well, it's just takes time to adjust for your middle fingers, after 3 months doing spread my speed finally getting to the point where I can do fast trills without much problems and still improving more and more.Originally posted by SqNtz_xoombotI usually try to hit those trills fast but then thats also reason for my recent switch to index

As I stated in my above post, 1 week is nothing. You need a lot more time for your middle fingers to adjust + coordinating 4 fingers is what makes you think it's tougher to read(will adjust). I started from scratch with spread and it took me roughly 2 months to start being able to hit fast patterns you mention.Originally posted by darkshark
All being said and done, spread maintains the highest potential ceiling of all styles in my opinion.Comment

Suzuru...what songs would you recommend playing?
I've been playing a lot of SM songs like: Max LIFE, When Demons Awake, Paranoia Insanity (Oni)...getting me somewhere I believe

Well...I'm making somewhat of a good improvement...I've AA'ed When Demons Awake, A'ed Pride of The Tyrant and Knightrider of Doom, B'ed MSWGO (short version), and other smaller achievements...been playing a lot more lately surprisingly, considering I'm starting to get back into FFXI :PComment

well, ive been practicing playing 4 fingered for about a month now, and ive got to say ive really surprised myself as to how useful it can be, and youre able to read the arrows so much faster than with index or 3 fingered. i used to ususally play SM 3 fingered on a C550 mod, now i use a C750 mod and can pass songs i didnt even think were possible, like "I'm A Maid" on challenge, im still having a great deal of trouble 1. pressing fast combinations of air eg. LU then RD, LU, RD, LU. 2. as always those Trills for LD and UR (how the hell do you do the ones in splash beats??) , and 3. for some reason i cant seem to get the stream combination of LRDULRDU like....ever. im still not quite as good as i used to be when i play 3 fingered, but im definately getting there, successfully FC'ed Get Down, and Delirium, so i think im well on my way. switching to fours is definately one of the better decisions ive made, and i urge everyone else to try it out too ^_^Comment

o.O I'm A Maid oni is nuts XD Downloaded it after reading your post...screw oni, I can hardly do heavy (C) O_OComment

ya i know, it is a bit chaotic, but i can pass it with a C or B depending how "in the zone" i am, and i can get about 3/4 through "Gigadelic" not sure who stepped it, but its got an insane amount of arrows, mostly air, although i must admit i button mash though one of the parts, sorry getting a little off topic here,Comment
-
Still...that is crazy...I can't handle jumps like that =P Songs like Black Dragon still give me a lil trouble (mostly endurance, but once I miss a few arrows, it takes about 100 steps to get back into a rhythm XD)....so yeah, I be needing to work on my jumps....are there any slower songs you can recommend?Comment

I play what would be indexes, but with my two middle fingers on the arrowkeys.
somtimes my two ring fingers
It feels like idexes just a bit more accurate

ya try Fur Elise Rave or Samurai Hardbeat or Beloved, i have trouble doing Beloved though, its not a fast song or anything, its just that i cant really do the jump two sets, i dunno, they confuse meOriginally posted by masterhickleComment

lol, dude, I must suck or something....
in Samurai Hardbeat and I'm A Maid, when you hit those runs of just doubles, or the runs of doubles/16th note sets....I'm just mashing arrows at those points XD I can read the arrows but meh fingers can't move that fast ^_^!Comment

heh. I began using the arrow keys in a four fingered setup, index and middle fingers.
left middle finger: left arrow key
left index finger: down arrow key
right index: up arrow key
right middle: right arrow key
I'm up to the master levels, while one handed I'm only at the standards.
I'm glad I started 4 fingered. :P
edit: now that I think about it though, during trill and speedy parts occasionally the fingers "jumble up" I don't know how to explain it, but they definitely don't go as fast as they could.
I'm going to try switching to the arrow key-numpad combo that people were posting abput earlier. ^^
