Sure this has been talked about
I've played this game on and off for about 4 years, last month or so been playing alot more, 30-75 games a day.
Finally started figuring out a few things here and there to improve my game, I have no problem reading fasts songs but simply put my fingers don't move fast enough. I play one handed, at 1.50x on the arrow keys of my keyboard. My understanding is to actually be good at the masters/guru songs you have to two hand it, but I can't seem to re-train myself using two hands and despite there being a thousand threads about the best way to go from 1 hand to 2 hands would anyone who has recently done it what was the best way to for you to do it and what keys do you use now? I'm left handed so if any left handers could help out I would appreciate it! Or you can just tell me that 1 handed is the best way to go I'll just keep trying |

Re: Sure this has been talked about
Similarly to you, I played one handed for many years. But I have finally recently discovered the virtues of two hands (although I can still play fairly well with one). Two hand positions you may want to consider -
left down with your left hand, up and right with your right (My initial two hand setup) left down with your left hand, eight and six on the numpad (My current setup, helps if you have a keyboard that doesn't accept hands/triples or your hands often get in the way of each other) Hope this helps. |

That's exactly what I was going to say. I am also left handed and it took me awhile to switch from one hand, to index, to spread. When I switched, I just practiced the easiest songs over and over again, until I mastered them. Then I moved on to harder songs. If you do that over time you will be good in no time =D I use as op by the way (ffr keymap)

Re: Sure this has been talked about
Well when I choose to switch I had a hard time but I for me...Breaking the Common was what taught me to get the jist of arrows. Also I do:
Down Arrow: Left Index. Left Arrow: Left Middle UA: RI RA: RM I know ppl who use their thumbs and middle fingers to play...so that's why I put that there. Anywho, good luck, just try mildly hard songs for a beginning 2 hander (as I recommended Breaking The Common) and see where it goes from there. Very sorry if I was of no help =X! |

Re: Sure this has been talked about
i use two hands. both index and middle fingers. it wasn't too difficult for me to switch from one hand. it was kinda a method i had to learn i couldn't play cash cow without getting pain in my one hand from it.
