I've actually tried playing piano, and my progression is fairly slow because I'm absolutely horrible at scales. I've spent time trying to improve, but I can't do it well.

Not to mention I can't balance left hand at the same time (and can't easily read bass clef), haha.

EDIT: I was actually trying to learn this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcUh-ggBfzI

...lots of scales

it's not the same; I doubt they'd progress at a similar rate

I was able to pick up this game rather quickly after having played piano for 13 years or so at the time, I think I picked up my first VC AAA within two months of playing.

I only assumed the same would apply for the reversed scenario (with the obvious addition of two extra fingers), guess not :/

ITT we talk about our piano experience.

I think playing piano helps with FFR, but not the other way around. I remember picking up SM after having played piano for 2 years and I was able to trill very well, mainly because I played a lot of pieces with trills in them.

FFR is easy to pick up after playing piano, but piano isn't easy to pick up after playing FFR.

EDIT: ninjad like fuq

I understand there's much more involved in playing an instrument than playing on here (the biggest one being that your hands aren't going to stay in a fixed position the entire time, maneuvering across the keys for scales/chromaticism/arpeggiation/what-have-you would still take a dece amount of time to learn), but I still think having the ability to play this game well would translate to some sort of accelerated learning curve when trying your hand at piano.

It does - I mean, I can actually do a good majority of One Minute Waltz (not quite up to speed), but that's because everything is nicely spread out, so my horrible piano finger placement doesn't make a difference, haha.

I would like to start learning again, but I don't have any sort of sheet music or learning book (I remember having an Arban's book for trumpet - great exercises and such).

The only thing that transfers over is sense of timing and perhaps some understanding of basic music theory like what measures are etc. learning 4k from piano is probably much easier than the reverse because of the need to coordinate so many keys at once and moving your hands dynamically. Heck I play 6/7/8k games for years but am quite bad at piano lol

.but I digress. Doss what's the cleanest vrofl fc you can get?

I never bothered to go for an FC on the file with good accuracy/boos, I'd probably break 3000 perfects but my keyboards don't register anything fast, like vibrating on both during the 64th jumptrill at the end, it just ends up giving a bunch of misses. I've FCed the file with booglitch but that score was messy as fuc

lol, 4000 perfects would only mean 616 notes of non-perfects

3695 compared to 4000 is light years away considering the difficulty of the file
