Practice with Multiple Hands

In Chord Practice → Chase the Notes, open Hand Configuration and set Hands to Split. The chord is now divided — lower notes go to your left hand, upper notes to your right.

For a major triad like C–E–G, the split assigns C to the left hand and E–G to the right. The exact split depends on the chord type and number of notes.

If Split feels like too much at once, start with Drone. In Hand Configuration, set Hands to Drone — your left hand holds a single sustained note the whole time while your right hand plays the full chord shape. It's a lighter introduction to two-hand coordination and sounds musical immediately.

Tip Drone is also useful mid-practice: if a chord change trips you up in Split mode, switch to Drone temporarily to keep the left hand simple while you nail the right hand shape.

With Drone active, the Left Hand Note setting controls which note the left hand holds:

• Root — the root note of the chord. Grounds the harmony and is the most natural starting point.
• Fifth — the perfect fifth above the root. Adds harmonic depth without clashing.
• Octave Below — the root one octave lower. Adds bass weight and fills out the low end.

Root is the right default for most practice. Switch to Fifth or Octave Below once Root feels comfortable.

Switch Hands to Off and play only the notes that will belong to one hand. Memorise the shape, then do the same for the other hand. This isolates motor memory for each hand before you combine them.

Switch back to Split and play both hands together. If coordination is difficult, lower the BPM in settings to give yourself more time. Clean coordination at slow speed builds faster than rushing.

Tip If you struggle to synchronise, practice each hand separately at a faster BPM first. Coordination at slow speed transfers to speed; the reverse is harder.
