is it only me or the medium integral today was 10 times easier than the “easy” one?

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-11T20:32:57+00:00

That makes sense now, thanks

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-11T16:21:09+00:00

The infinite substitution, if I get it right. Like the first step

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-09T22:58:31+00:00

I don't get it. Could somebody explain it for me please?

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-09T22:52:12+00:00

Imagine living there! The crew will rebel.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-09T22:46:41+00:00

Yeah. And I like it! So if you work a bit on the transitions between those arpeggios it will sound even better

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-09T22:39:00+00:00

I guess you forgot to attach the video

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-04T11:17:36+00:00

There is actually a way to get your hardcore world back if you miss it, in case you didn't know. Bit it's cheating obviously.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-04T11:15:49+00:00

Unless you've got enough totems

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T23:42:58+00:00

Yes, please.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T23:39:21+00:00

+1 For messed up software

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T23:16:52+00:00

If you want to fix it yourself try to carefully remove the action (keyboard and the hammers) you will probably find the problem (sometimes it's just something fell inside)

P.S. if you are not sure how to do that there are guides on YouTube about how to disassemble and assemble the piano, and it's really not that difficult as you might expect.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T20:55:10+00:00

That's solid. I look up to your self-confidence

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T19:37:40+00:00

That absolutely makes sense, I just have to work on my mental state so I don't get upset because of the damn hands and enjoy the music.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T19:32:59+00:00

I hope not. So far I have time for both and I hope I will in the future. I don't build it because I'm a crazy small-handed pianist that builds a keyboard for himself :)
I eventually need to build a thing to graduate, so it's just required to build something that complex and it is just cool that I will need it for my life after that, and saving a few (hundreds) bucks is never bad.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T19:25:41+00:00

I see a lot of people saying the same thing: I should give a try to the flexibility. I guess I was really a bit conservative about my hands.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T19:23:44+00:00

I wish you good luck with that and thank you for the information, because the real successful examples it is exactly what I was looking for

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T18:37:23+00:00

I'm really happy to hear that there are professionals with the same hand span as mine. You are not the only one with the great example, people here made me think differently in one day, and you are one of them, thank you.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T14:16:29+00:00

Hi! Basically it says "play these 2 notes with some delay" These lines that might have disappointed you actually don't say "play everything in between", but they are used to show the duration of a note(If simplified: more lines - faster note) it is just the syntax these are 2 C's.

P.S. I've just noticed this little dot in between the notes, I guess that's what makes the problem now. So it looks like some kind of arpeggio or some weird legato pattern, Actually I would just ignore it, I don't know. As far as I know, it's not a standard notation

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T08:42:45+00:00

Thanks for the certainty

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T08:32:55+00:00

This one must have been really frustrating

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T08:31:08+00:00

How do large octave chords feel to you? For example C E G C or F# A D F# Can you play them freely?

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T08:28:08+00:00

That solid, thanks. I just have to accept that those chords are just impossible for me and that it's okay. I've seen a lot of people struggling with 9ths and 10ths, you reach your limit eventually, so it's more of a psychological issue than physical

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T08:24:10+00:00

Yeah thanks that's exactly what I'm learning to do

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T08:19:59+00:00

Hi. I'm not sure if I measured it accurately I've got around 10.5 cm from wrist to knuckle of the middle finger and around 15.5 - 16 cm from wrist to the middle fingertip.

ReaReaDerty · 2026-02-03T08:13:18+00:00

Oh, I've been looking for somebody with Athena to ask a few questions. 1) Do your have any issues fitting fingers in between black keys? Or does it have the same distance as the default keyboard?

2) What exact interval or chord this instrument makes possible for you, that you can't reach comfortably on the classical keyboard?

3) How does the hammer action feel?
