Think it visually, it's not related to pitches but just direction of the strikes: if flatpick is moving up, e.g. from first to second string, I need an arrow up. All the flatpicking scores I have use this notation. > It's not really important for the sense of the snippet, which shows > how to create/use such arrows, though I was puzzled. > > Btw, is it correct that the last two notes of your example have the > same strike-direction? > > If I understand well the rationale behind crosspicking¹, the direction of the strike depends on which string is the following note. So you are free to pick the last note as you wish... I decided to keep the "natural" direction. Is it more clear now? ¹ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosspicking
