== '''Hotkeys''' ==
Need some quick thinking or just some extra pizazz? Here are some hotkeys to get you up and running!

==== '''Octave Tweaking''' ====
If you wan to switch between higher and lower octaves, the Shift key, The Ctrl  key, and The Caps Lock are used while you are playing notes with the keyboard. To shift 1 octave up, use the Shift Key. To shift one octave down, either use ''Caps Lock'' (highly recommended), ''Alt Gr'' (mostly recommended) and Ctrl (not recommended, as some notes' keys are associated with browsers shortcuts) . This gives an extended freedom in how you could approach a song via keyboard functions.

It is also possible by pressing your keyboard arrows, to change the octave higher than the shift and control key. What this does is it basically is like moving your notes to the higher or lower part of the piano, instead of it all being in the middle.

=== '''Sustaining your Notes''' ===
If you press ''Backspace'' on this website, it will stop the notes from being sustained. Also, if you happen to have the sustain off, you can use the ''Space Bar'' as the sustain pedal, where holding it will sustain all notes you play, and releasing it will release the sustaining effect. Most people do not know about this, but it is very handy.

=== '''Use your keyboard''' ===
Most people have figured this out on their own, but some still don't know about it. You can use '''Z''', '''X''', '''C''', '''''V, B, N, M, <, >''''' '''and, ?'''<sup>1</sup> ''t''o play one octave.
