Increasing fingers' speed

mhss1992 · 07-31-2008, 04:33 PM

Hi. My streaming speed is decent, I think, but I have trouble when a single note has to be pressed quickly many times, like in Death Piano or Aim Anthem. What can I do to improve the speed of my fingers so I can quickly play the same note? I've been practicing this for ages, because I played Guitar Hero before FFR, but the improvement was minimal...

I can only suggest practise on jack songs. Nothing serious like Club or AIM because that's a bit tough for you I think.

I'd recommend 100 bar blackout if you're wanting to introduce yourself to 2 framers, 3 framers and 4 framer jacks.

If you want alittle more, try practising on chains, AM-3P, Aztec Templing, Be Princess, Pants all have chains if you want to work on those (some are faster than others here).

frapping makes you better at ffr

Play stepmania, they have loads and loads of jacky files, and they can really help.

Yup. Just download all the packs you possibly can. They have some jacks here and there, so just practice THOSE songs to get better at them.

**MrPoptart** · 07-31-2008, 08:11 PM

play songs much harder then you could possibly do and actually try to hit every note.

**Beethovens mask** · 07-31-2008, 08:46 PM

Practice a crap load on Jelly Roll Blues and Going on Spring Wind.'

Don't worry, I suck at jacks too.

on your desk/lap...just tap one finger at a time repeatedly.

IMPORTANT: use your FFR fingers

I do this all the time and my parents get pissed off at me

what I'd like to know is how all you sm junkies do it, club is cake compared to most hard sm songs D:

I kinda have the same problem as the OP, only it's more or less on long chains of jacks like in AIM or Club.

I've heard that some people can "vibrate"... how exactly could I practice that?
