6k and 7k setups are experimental. Back to my normal setup.

SDF space JKL right now again :O

Other types i played before:

ASD space KLÖ
WER space OPÜ
or something including the numpad

also played a bit with the left shift key as my first key on the old keyboard because i couldnt press more than 6k keys the normal way

4K = DF JK
5K = DF Space JK
6K = SDF JKL
7K = SDF Space JKL

Yeah... my key is so hard so the buttons is lighter from other button

I use default for 4K-7K and LShift S D F Space J K L for 8K (although I suck at 8K)

c:

I use default since, for whatever reason, holding every key at once on 7k and 8k works fine. If 9k ever gets added, seems like my keyboard would be fine with it too.

I use this

Default c:

4k: Q W [ ]
5k: Q W E [ ]
6k: Q W E P [ ]
7k: Q W E R P [ ]
8k: Q W E R P [ ] \

using whatever keysetup I used for stepmania and BMS
(although I somewhat regret using pinkies for 7k+ as opposed to using a thumb on a spacebar)

Key configuration?, i just use the mouse

Well you ended up in the osu mania section It is a game mode where only keyboard is required to play

4K: C V , .

I found the default hard lol so I just made the keys into a straight line.

4k - JKL; (one hand)

8k - sdf[space] down num4 num5 num6 (use both middle rows with my thumbs)

I use an autohotkey script to remap my keys with custom hotkeys, ex. ctrl+alt+8 will set my keyboard in 8k mode. More convenient for multiplayer :p

It would be easier adding some lines to a *K.in on your skin folder. Ex for 8K.ini:

Key0: S

8k: [a] [w] [e] [r] [-space-] [7] [8] [9]

Now that I've switched to 7k and 8k only (mostly thanks to Lunatic Rave), I'm trying out a setup that's closer to the button layout on an actual Beatmania controller so I can practice playing with this style before I get one:

7k: [x] [r] [b] [u] [m] [o] [/]
8k: [LSHIFT] [x] [r] [b] [u] [m] [o] [/]

4k - df kl


don't use the rest

4K = DF JK
5k = ASD KL
6k = ASD JKL
7k = ASD space JKL

ASD space JKL

bold = 4K. pretty straightforward imo.

7K: and here real shit begins. I'd been playing Lunatic Rave for quite a while and, as I didn't have much money to buy a normal BMS controller, I started to seek for that "perfection" that might substitute the real BMS contoller. My first option was the original keyboard layout - Z S X D C F V ( white - black, white - black correspondingly ). It was okay at the very begining, as the beatmania skin matched the layout perfectly and that allowed for fast key recognition. But later on, when I started to play 7-8 diff. songs my fingers would always cross each other and that annoyed the hell out of me. It was the first sign that I needed to change my setup.
Then I thought of spreading my layout across all the keyboard so that I could be able to manoeuvre my fingers more quickly which resulted in
-> Z E V Y M O ? -> Z E V H M O ? -> A E G Y J P " -> A W F Y J O : . Thus, as you can see, the distance between fingers was way too big, and it automatically ( if it's even possible to call it like that) began to shorten until the most comfortable layout was found for me -> A W F U J O :.
But there was one little thing that always kept me alarm and that was "the U J connection" as I used to call it. It was very difficult to switch between those keys. Now, when I finally managed to approach level 11 in bms , it is next to impossible to press those "special keys" one after another fast. This "UJ" has brought me so much frustration that I'm thinking of leaving the world of rhythm games. This time I'm about to make some serious changes -> I will give the standard o2mania layout one more chance and see how it all will turn out ( I hate it that pressing SPACEBAR requires so much stamina!!! ). So, my main keyboard layout now is S D F SPACEBAR J K L .
8K: RightShift A W F U J O : / RightShift S D F SPACEBAR J K L respectively.
P.S Sorry for numerous mistakes. I haven't used English in a long time.
