    What songs do you recommend me to play to improve these things?

    I'm really bad at jumpstreaming and jacks, and I'll usually miss a few on trills.

    What are some good FFR/SM songs that I can whore to improve my skills in these areas?

    Thanks.

    For the jumpstreamy stuff, I'd say download Kilgapack and play it in Stepmania with lower speedmods if needed. Some of them are really jumpstreamy and fun.

      If you cant find songs with jacks try playing some songs with lots of 16th streams with super shuffle mode turned on. It creates many 2 or 3 arrow jacks.

        Trills : Vertex BETA or MAX Forever

          max forever is BY FAR the best song to work trills.... fairly low bpm, yet extremely long.

          other trill songs... air has a decent 1 handed trill at 190. 20031023 has a nice trill in it near the beginning. science genius has a REALLY long, really slow trill in it about 2/3 thru...


          jacks: grand gallop chromatique... for some easier jacks, try anubis or the essential. also 100 bar blackout is ALL jacks. AIM Anthem for long long long jacks.

          jumpstream... silence, frozen... etude of a dragon. end night has jacks and jumpstream. UNknown Girl has a small jumpstream section near the beginning that is pretty friendly. Maple Leaf Rag is an EXCELLENT jumpstream song at a low bpm (108).


          hope that helps.

            Forgot to add this:

            Jumpstream : hi19hi19's Destiny file for SM is pretty good to practice that.

                  For higher bpms, obviously there's Toph's One More Lovely. Then St. Scarhand or MSWGO 8)

                      If you want an easier song to practice your jacks try Crystalis. The song is no big deal really besides the jacks part. Also, there's some low bpm trills in it too.
