Questions
- How do I get the fingering for ON FIRE?
- Open the Piano Fingering tool, upload a MusicXML or MIDI of ON FIRE, and it suggests a finger on every note for both hands. Adjust anything, then export MusicXML, a PDF sheet, or a Synthesia package.
- Can the fingering match my hand size?
- Yes. Pick a hand size from XXS to XXL and the suggestions change — smaller hands trade wide stretches for more thumb-unders, larger hands keep the hand still. Fingering is personal, so you keep the last word on every note.
- Will the finger numbers show in Synthesia?
- Yes. Export MusicXML (Synthesia opens it directly with the numbers on the falling notes) or the Synthesia package (a MIDI plus a matching .synthesia metadata file).
