          It probably seems that way because of the key configuration you are using. Perhaps switching to a setup that is more ergonomic for your natural finger placement would help you feel more comfortable using your index and middle fingers, which are, in my opinion, the two most powerful fingers for playing FFR.

            A friend of mine plays with their middle and ring fingers. They've played piano all their life and say they have the best coordination with both of those fingers.

            I guess we all choose whatever fits us best.

              I used both index and middle fingers, but sometimes if I've been playing a lot of really long/really hard songs (Like when I go Hey look, avmiss fix, time to play through every song from 10-12/12) sometimes I'll switch to middle/ring if my index fingers can use a short break.

                I've always found it hard to move my middle/ring fingers on the same hand for a trill, does anyone else experience this?

                  Huh, weird. My friend Logan (Loganz on FFR) does that with his right hand but I always thought it was extremely awkward and that the human anatomy would never have the same potential of mobility and flexibility as the alternation between the index and the middle, but after seeing this thread, I guess it does have to do with preference.

                  My ring fingers are longer than my index, but my cousins' index fingers are longer than their ring. Maybe this has something to do with it?

                    playing with middle & ring fingers on both hands is called pettanko.

                    John11 is probably the most widely known user to play with this style, he's pretty good at it.

                          John11 is cool, you should learn more about SM.

                          I used to play pettanko (It certainly does have a nice ring to it), but I switched like 10 months ago. Sometimes I still play like that, but I do way better with my middle and index fingers.

                              I used to play index with my middle fingers, instead of my indexes

                              Damnit, I forgot what someone called.

                              LOL, just thought of one, Milfing, Middle Finger FFRing.
