These are in reference to the type of arrow/note speed. They also represent the general colors of the arrows in the charts of the newer levels (for example: red arrows generally represent 4th notes, while blue arrows represent 8th notes). | These are in reference to the type of arrow/note speed.

;Jacks | ;Jacks/Minijacks | ||
''Jacks'' refer to quickly repeated arrows, such as four right 32nd arrows in a row. A ''minijack'', as defined by Shashakiro, is "two or three specifically, anything higher is a jack, although "jack" can be used to describe minijacks too." In FFR, jacks are defined by their distance apart in frames, such as multiple arrows 4 frames apart, would be considered ''4-frame jacks'' and so on. Mainly, the jacks that will be seen in the game don't come closer than three or two frames apart, except in a very small handful of songs such as '''Croudpleaser''' and '''Vertex Beta vROFL''' where 1 frame, and 0 frame jacks can come into play. | |||

; | ;Jumps/Doubles/Hands/Quads | ||
''Jumps and doubles'' describe two arrows played at the same time. If there are three arrows to be pressed at the same time, these are ''hands'', or hits that would normally require the use of hands (along with the feet for [[:Category:Dance Dance Revolution|Dance Dance Revolution]]). If there are four arrows that are to be hit at the same time, it is considered to be a ''quad'', or ''quads'' depending on how many there are in a row. | |||

This pattern usually has the arrows alternate and usually doesn't contain any form of "jacking" within the stream of arrows. A ''jumpstream'' generally has the same concept, but tends to use consistent "doubles" along with as single arrows when forming it's pattern. Jumpstreams can also contain "hands" or "quads" within it's pattern, in this case the term jumpstream is still considered the appropriate term, instead of "handstreams" or "quadstreams". | ||
;Rolls | ;Rolls | ||
A ''roll'' is 4 arrows placed a certain amount of frames apart, in the order of "Left","Down","Up","Right" or "Right", "Up", "Down", "Left". A "roll" can be just a single "roll" over the keyboard, or 1000. Rolls are considered only as "rolls", regardless of their frame distance apart. | A ''roll'' is 4 arrows placed a certain amount of frames apart, in the order of "Left","Down","Up","Right" or "Right", "Up", "Down", "Left".

;Trills | ;Trills | ||
A ''trill'' is a series of arrows (presumably 4 or more) that constantly use two arrow keys. Trills can range from very slow, to ridiculous 1 framers as seen in '''Croudpleaser''', and can last any amount of time. Trills are commonly used for two consecutive drum sounds, piano or other speedcore break-beats that repeat two sounds over again for a certain period of time. | A ''trill'' is a series of arrows (presumably 4 or more) that constantly use two arrow keys.

;Chains | ;Chains | ||
A ''chain'' is usually a series of single arrows that changes over to another series of single arrows by using a double note to make it appear like the arrows are linked together (like a chain). They are found in a decent amount of songs, and can be very fun to play with as chains do not usually ever seem to ascend to 4 or 3 frame speeds in FFR. | A ''chain'' is usually a series of single arrows that changes over to another series of single arrows by using a double note to make it appear like the arrows are linked together (like a chain).

When someone refers to a ''Combo Breaker'', or a ''CB'', they are referring to the number of misses they obtain within a single song. In most cases, ''CB's'' are used to describe harder ''For Guru's Only'' or ''D13'' songs where missing notes are a high possibility. A ''Combo Breaker'' is usually discussed by stating whether you obtained either a ''high/bad CB count'' or a ''low/good CB count'' (it is worded the same as a ''PA'' | When someone refers to a ''Combo Breaker'', or a ''CB'', they are referring to the number of misses they obtain within a single song.

A ''Combo Breaker'' is usually discussed by stating whether you obtained either a ''high/bad CB count'' or a ''low/good CB count'' (it is worded the same as a ''PA'' wound be). If you were to obtain only 2 misses in '''Reluctantly Accepting Temporary Overexhaustion''' (Difficulty 13), you could say that you obtained a low or good ''CB'' on it, where as if you were to get 7 misses in '''Power''' (Difficulty 1), you could say you got a high or bad ''CB'' on that song. CB is generally based on one's own skill level, but it is usually fairly easy to tell whether you have obtained a good or bad ''Combo Breaker'' count on a song based on it's difficulty level, and it's ''Full Combo'' count overall. | ||
