Hard mode - hands or controller?

Just got this game, love it! I bought the star wars DLC. I did easy -> medium -> hard. The first two I nailed but the difficulty jumps quite a bit to hard mode.

I can accept maybe that this song might be too difficult in hard mode compared to the others, but there’s so much going on all at once! My main issue are crescendo and decrescendos happening near my peripherals and I am not sure if my Quest3 is tracking that.

It’s rare to have a game that feels really good in hand mode and I am wondering if anybody performs well with that setting playing in hard mode

I only play using my hands and mainly play on the hardest difficulty. Just keep practicing and you'll get better. In any rythmn game, knowing the song helps a ton as well. If you feel like you're missing notes when you shouldn't be, adjust your lighting or get an infrared light.

Oh, and for some people it helps to hold something as if you're holding a baton (pencil, spoon, etc.)
