Hi everyone,

According to this, rrtyui is able to tape 20 Notes Per Second

(150 BPM . 1/4 = 10 NPS, .DoubleTime = 20 NPS).

How come ? I know i cant tape really fast (always doubletapping though), it starts to be hard at arround 12 NPS.
So I actually dont see how it is possible to tape 20 NPS.
Is he using any special devices (I know its much easier to fast tape with good touchepads) or softwares (triple / quadruple taping using HotKeySet, keyshark or any other softwares) , or just his fingers fast as f**k ?

Any advice to tape dat fast please ?

DT is a 50% speed increase, not 100%

so it would be 15 nps, by your logic

Doubletime has a 1.5 multiplier, not 2, so it's 15 NPS instead of 20. There are a select few maniacs who can do 20 NPS(accurately), but they're rare. rrtyui uses a normal mehanical keyboard, and he's in the vast majority. It's just fast fingers.

As for tips on how to stream faster(as it's called around here), practice hard and practice often. Building stream speed is about challenging your physical limits and also drinking coffee.

Oh, didnt know nor realized since i dont play much DT.

Then it makes sense, yet 15 NPS looks fast but not impossible

.

Always had this question:

270 BPM stream would be 270 x 4 = 1080 beats a minute which would mean 1080 / 60 = 18 beats per second. Does that mean that when someone is streaming at 270 BPM he is actually pressing 18 keys a second? Like I can do Mad Machine but I seriously doubt I can do 18 beats a second...

Streaming 300 bpm accurately has been done in many other rhythm games, even in DDR/ITG I think.

Yes with two fingers. Try looking up a "Vertex Gamma AA spread" video or something.
There are points when only one hand is used such as the left-down-left-down patterns.
