Subject: Re: Limit on song memorization


This list needs a FAQ for the newcomers...

The main trick for doing this is to setup a bank of quick-keys (click and
hold the mouse button and drag it to a quick key slot) and use the 1-6 keys
not mouse clicks to switch between the songs. There seems to be some delay
involved with the mouse click - so you can't "Riff" (my preferred term) as
well no matter how quick you are at clicking that mice.

Also - it seems some people get better results - I've NEVER been able to
Riff four songs like some have - so ping/pl time may be a factor - as well
perhaps how fast your machine is.. I definitely saw an improvement when I
went to the quick-key method..
