Best controller presets for fightsticks

Dann

hey guys. i recently picked up a fightstick and I'm having a little trouble adjusting since i've plead with a ps2/ps3 controller my whole life. i was watching some streams and i've noticed that players like eric warda and cd jr always change their controller presets. i've looked around but nobody has posted on this yet and when you pause the videos is to blurry to see what there custom preset looks like. is there any presets that make combos easier to execute on a japanese style fightstick or should i just keep it how it is and get use to it? thanks in advance

I use the default layout myself, with ring or pinkyfinger block. But I saw some different layouts used:

More traditional layout:
1 throw 2
3 block 4

Switched standard:
throw 1 2
block 3 4

Does anyone have a good layout for the Hitbox style controller??

I've tried the following combinations

FP,BP,BLK,CS
FK,BK,THR,TAG

FP,BLK,BP,CS
FK,TAG,BK,THR

BLK,FP,BP,THR
CS,FK,BK,TAG

But can't seem to settle on a combination that 'feels right'. If anyone has any suggestions, please enlighten me!

I use:

:fp | :blk | :bp
:fk | throw | :bk

I can't play any other way. If I'm playing tag mode I'll shift the layout so it looks like:

stance | :fp | :blk | :bp
:tag | :fk | throw | :bk

or:

:stance | :fp | :blk | :bp
throw | :fk | :tag | :bk

I usually throw with :fp + :fk
