Overview

• The 7key layout features a "rice ball" in the center, with three keys on either side.
• The “rice ball” can be used as part of a staircase or for backing and emphasis, similar to the 5key layout, offering a variety of uses.
• Simultaneous presses of three or more keys fit together cleanly, providing the flexibility to make the chart feel either light or heavy depending on how it’s used.

7ikey	Similar to 7key, but this multi-key layout feels lighter since it doesn’t use the space bar.
11key	A keymode that combines elements of 5key and 7key. It is characterized by a style that involves moving your hands.
8key	A keymode that adds the Enter key to 7key. It is characterized by a style where the right hand is spread out.
9Akey	A keymode that adds the E and I keys to 7key. It is shaped like two 5keys connected and is also called "double play."
9Bkey	A keymode where the 7key is spread out horizontally. It is similar to the 9Akey, but this one uses the little finger.
9dkey	A keymode where the Space key in the 7key is replaced by V, B, and N. It features a style where both hands are extended inward to reach the keys.
