'''Solo files''' - A simfile designated for use with a keyboard (or one hell of an awesome DDR player), that uses 6 keys, adding the top left and top right corners to the ''single'' or ''4-key'' pattern.

'''Dance-Double files''' - A simfile designated for 2 separate players (pad or keyboard depending on the file), in which two different sets of 4 key patterns (in other words, 8 keys are onscreen) are played by two different people on the same song. Although if you learn single and solo '''VERY''' well, you may be able to play some of the dance double files by yourself if you have two keyboards. Ideally these should be marked "couple", but some authors are unaware of "couple".

'''Dump files''' - A simfile that consists of randomly placed arrows that are consistently off-sync with the rest of the song. Generally dump files are extremely difficult to pass as they tend to emulate no pattern and have outrageously close difficult patterns which have nothing to do with the song. The general population of dump files are nothing but crap...so if you get one, delete it.
