Just click the finger hint toolbar icon (or press the default keyboard shortcut: N) and you're ready to add them. You can add finger hints to notes directly during song playback. TIP: Use the 1-5 and 6-0 keys on your keyboard to assign hints to the left or right hand quickly!įinger hints are a great way to help beginners learn the correct hand positions and movements required to play a song. Press N to start editing, drag from notes to fingers to add hints.

You can test this by tapping escape and selecting your song again. Once you've assigned both a "Left Hand" and "Right Hand" (or a single "Both"), the next time you enter that screen it should pop up in the simple view instead. Click that and assign which hand that part belongs to. On the advanced view (which should appear by default if you've got more than two tracks), there is a small hand icon near the instrument name for each track. Otherwise, if your song contains a few other background tracks, you'll have to tell Synthesia which one or two are the important ones that the user will be interested in. Your song should appear using the simple view to begin with. If your song only has one or two tracks (along with any amount of percussion), Synthesia should already be able to guess which hand is which. Set both parts using the small 'hand' icon in the advanced view of the song setup screen. Tell Synthesia which parts belong to the left and right hand Be careful not to set it too strong or it might do something like snap a run of 32nd notes into pairs of 16th notes. There are generally options you can adjust to control the "strength" of the quantization. Otherwise, if you record live from a MIDI instrument, most MIDI editors can quantize either during the recording process or afterward. If you enter your notes into your MIDI editor by hand, you're already all set. Accuracy will improve tremendously if notes line up with beats and measures correctly.
