  1. Welcome to the Led Zeppelin discography thread (v2.0 :))! The main purposes of this thread will be: 1). Keep everyone up to date on the status of the project2). General Led Zeppelin discussion (because it's important :D)3). Create an environment where all Zepheads are appreciated. I'll be going through the discography in chronological order, so if there's a particular song that you're anxiously awaiting, I will eventually get to it. Current Status (all songs charted by me unless otherwise specified): Led Zeppelin (I) http://i.imgur.com/iT0RCui.jpg 1. Good Times Bad Times2. Babe I'm Gonna Leave You3. You Shook Me4.

Wearing and Tearing *Important Notice* At some point midway through the Presence album (as I recall) I started using the "photo negatives" of the album art that you see above. This represents two things: 1) the CDLC uses the newly remastered audio, as this the album art that has been used for those commercial releases. 2) that the CDLC has been made to the best of my current abilities, regarding both audio fidelity and overall quality, and will likely not receive any future updates. In the coming weeks/months, I will be going through the catalog once more, in order to fix and improve a few things in some of the earlier Zeppelin CDLCs. Most of them were made over 2 years ago, and frankly, my standards for quality have improved quite a bit since then. There is no specific timeline for this, but as I sign off on each custom, I'll be placing a * symbol next to the song name in the above list. This symbol will indicate that the two qualities listed above are present in the CDLC. If you haven't already, you may want to make sure that you've added your favorite songs to your collection (the ignition search function) so that you're notified when updates are made.

  2. This is my basic workflow for making the song. This is also good approach for quick check if it's worth to do the song (checking out the tab). Disclaimer: This is not the only one approach but it's the best practice for minimizing manual frustrating error-prone work and it allows you to actually go back and fix anything in the sync, tab, sections or phrases easily. (You can use this tutorial even if you later decide to maintain chart completely in EoF.) Note for tabbing: I have found GP/GPA combo to be great for creating tabs from scratch - I figure out the BPM, sync the measures and progressively fill them up with notes (hearing GP tab immediately or slowing down the GPA playback and playing along the song is great help). Repeat signs: I didn't have any issues in GPA so you can do this later, but you might need to replace repeats to avoid EoF import issues and I don't recommend to import GP3 format. Without repeats you also get more control over partitioning phrases/sections. Replacing repeats is trivial in TuxGuitar once you get hold of it: 1. remove start and end sign (note the number at the end sign = N) 2. copy those measures (all tracks, you want to copy all instruments) 3. go to the next measure and let TuxGuitar paste it in new measure N times (otherwise it will be overwritten) 4. if it is alternate ending, you need to do one additional paste at the last (alternate ending) measure Synchronization 1. You should have correct GP tab prepared and also MP3 file, it will be hard to sync if notes in tab are not in place. Make sure you have at least one empty measure at the start (otherwise you will need to do the sync again later). 2. Install Go PlayAlong and load GP and MP3 files into it. You might want to add few seconds of silence first if it starts too soon, you can use Audacity and its Generate -> Silence function. It is possible to add it later too and set EoF project Delay value but it always keeps bugging you to convert it to empty measures which you shouldn't do if you follow this approach. 3. Place some links on notes and peaks of the waveform, preferably only on measure boundaries, don't try to fix the tab by overriding the timing (especially if you are trying to sync both guitar and bass at once). Do this manually for the whole song to ensure high precision. Hardest point is the start, you should make sure you get it right, doing high frequency (guitar or loud drum beats) is easiest, but you need to check if both arrangements are in sync once you're done. Use zoom and slow down the playback to make this easier. If you place first link after the actual first note of arrangements you care about, go back and place a link before them too to avoid possible EoF import issue (measures up to first link will be shifted forward/backward depending on where the first measure fits). discussion 4. Check if the result is correct for all relevant arrangements. 5. Export. Licensed GPA is needed to do this but it's absolutely essential, you can calculate BPMs manually but there will be a lot of imprecisions this way and I don't recommend it. (If export fails, check artist/songbook name and remove any space in front of it.) 6. Now you can create EoF project and import XML file with Guitar Pro import. If you don't need to change timing you will never have to do this again, you can clear sections/phrases and notes and import them directly from GP file if you fix anything. 7. Now you are ready to save and create a package with toolkit. Be sure to save package template for future rebuilds (each arrangement has unique IDs which identify score and progress in Rocksmith). There is also fairly recent feature of slowing down playback in EoF which is a great help for checking note sync but everything should be the same as in GPA. Phrases and sections (Make sure you use EoF r1300 and later to prevent phrase import issues.) Note that you can manage section and phrase names directly in GP tab (section names and text markers), I use alternate EoF setting for importing phrases from section names and sections from text markers on first beat of measure. If you intend to split phrases and sections differently or name them differently you need to keep separate GP tabs and EoF project for each arrangement (I recommend it, having correctly labeled phrases and noguitar sections for both bass and guitar adds a lot to the chart quality). Sections (text markers) need to be on the first beat of measure and phrase name (measure marker) is required at the same position. Section is the part that is selectable in riff repeater. You can name phrases whatever you want but you should use the same name for this particular phrase throughout the tab, this will instruct Rocksmith to advance them at once. Section names are restricted to these Rocksmith names (use only the word in quotes, EoF accepts both forms but the first one is canonical): {"intro", "Intro"}, {"outro", "Outro"}, {"verse", "Verse"}, {"chorus", "Chorus"}, {"bridge", "Bridge"}, {"solo", "Solo"}, {"ambient", "Ambient"}, {"breakdown", "Breakdown"}, {"interlude", "Interlude"}, {"prechorus", "Pre Chorus"}, {"transition", "Transition"}, {"postchorus", "Post Chorus"}, {"hook", "Hook"}, {"riff", "Riff"}, {"fadein", "Fade In"}, {"fadeout", "Fade Out"}, {"buildup", "Buildup"}, {"preverse", "Pre Verse"}, {"modverse", "Modulated Verse"}, {"postvs", "Post Verse"}, {"variation", "Variation"}, {"modchorus", "Modulated Chorus"}, {"head", "Head"}, {"modbridge", "Modulated Bridge"}, {"melody", "Melody"}, {"postbrdg", "Post Bridge"}, {"prebrdg", "Pre Bridge"}, {"vamp", "Vamp"}, {"noguitar", "No Guitar"}, {"silence", "Silence"}"noguitar" section is used for silent parts and is excluded from Riff Repeater. If only one arrangement is silent then you should make a copy of GP tab and EoF project and do different version of section naming. If you want to see purple bars in the song chart you need to have more than one difficulty. I wouldn't do that manually in EoF, you can use either DDC or I use a script to do exact copy so I have 2 identical levels. Technique import (My notes about how EOF imports various techniques and known issues, if you know about some, let me know.) Should work (let me know if you notice issues): - Note/chord - Palm mute - Sustain - Accent - Slide to note/chord - Dead note/chord - Hammer on/pull off - Slap/pop - Vibrato (only single frequency, probably only visual effect) - Tremolo (see import issues) - Harmonic (& harmonic pinch?) - Tap - Bend - Chord notes techniques should be mostly supported Some issues: - Tremolo - EOF project needs to be set to remove difficulty limitations - Slide to no destination exports as 1 fret slide - Trill - according to @@raynebc it needs to be converted to hammer-on/pull-offs (discussion) - Arpeggio chord outline can be added if you add chord notes as ghost notes and then manually set Arpeggio mark with Ctrl+Shift+G in EoF at each arpeggio appearance Unsupported import to EOF: - Unpitched slides (no TuxGuitar support?) - Chord slides limited to same offset? Unsupported techniques in RS2 (ignored): - Ghost note (effect) - Grace note (effect) - Dotted (lenghtened duration) - Staccato (shortened duration) - swing/shuffle or Triplet? (duration) Additional tips I recommend starting off with official song and DLC tones (in manifest files), choose one that fits and improve it. You need to use toolkit to unpack game and DLC psarc files to access them and then import them to your toolkit template (you can import your new or modified tones from RS profile too). Some tones of interest: - punk distortion: Versus Them - 6AM Salvation - clean ska guitar: Weezer - Say It Ain't So - Filter Clean - tight punk bass: Clash - London Calling - deep bluesy bass: Albert King - Born Under A Bad Sign - dubby bass: Clash - Guns Of Brixton - reverb clean guitar: Disonaur - Space Ostrich - jazz clean: (couldn't find any official so I customized one for Le Chat) TuxGuitar is a free replacement for Guitar Pro, also supports PTB tabs. Latest SVN version can read GPX (GP6) but you need to build it yourself (run "mvn clean package" in "build-scripts/$PLATFORM" depending on your target operating system).

  3. http://puu.sh/5Ghqf.png I’m proud to announce my RS2014 CDLC project: Bass Hero! It’s very simple; I’m just doing CDLC for bass players of Guitar Hero songs! (GH 1 to GHA excluded)The advantages are:-I have the files for every instrument; this means I can take the bass-only audio files and make the most accurate tabs possible! I think that’s important, because the bass players often have bad tabs, due to the fact we can’t always hear it very good in the original songs-I have access to the GH files, so the tempo map is already fixed, and notes position too! Gain of time guaranteed!-Vocals are also already made, so you will have them for every song! -By not making guitar, I’m having a huge gain of time; every CDLC I make for this project will have most functions such as dynamic difficulties, custom tones, potential automatic tone changes, etc…-I am choosing songs randomly; this means you will have a large variety of music genres and you have no excuse to be jealous!-If you want to do a guitar part, go ahead and send it to me! Your contribution will be directly integrated to the pack.-If a CDLC for a song's already made with bass but the bass tab doesn't looks right, I will ask to the creator if he accepts my help If you have anything to ask; anything you want to be changed, please ask in this thread! You will be joyfully answered! Here is the list of songs already made: 13 GHWT:Rise Against - Re-Education (Through Labor)Lostprophets - Rooftops (A Liberation Broadcast) GHM:Sytem of A Down - Toxicity (removed for being officially released)Mercyful Fate - Evil GHGH:Extreme - Play With MeTwisted Sister - I Wanna Rock GH5:David Bowie - FameJohn Mellencamp - Hurts So GoodBilly Squier - Lonely Is The NightMy Morning Jacket - One Big Holiday BH:Snow Patrol - Take Back The City GHVH:Deep Purple – Space Truckin’Foreigner - Double Vision

  4. (This list more or less shows the idea behind Song Selection List. Keep in mind that this is forgotten place) As the topic suggest I will be making and adding to this list songs for each class (beginner, intermediate, Masterclass) but I need all of your help. Please post here and recommend to me which songs should be in what class and I will add them to the list in this post. I will sticky this thread or have it stickied so everyone can see it. This will also link to the spreadsheet where all entrants into the competition may enter in their name and song choice. Please note any songs added to this list must be available on Customsforge.com and they must have RIFF REPEATER, A CUSTOM TONE AND HAVE AT LEAST LEAD AND BASS ARRANGEMENTS or they will not be added to the list. Providing a link to the custom on here is helpful but not required. Please add your songs of choice for the classes you want to play. The more songs you add the higher the chance that your choice will get picked. Just click here and add your name to the list and the songs you want for each class. Inactive users will be removed from this list to try and keep it tidy and make it a bit easier on myself when choosing song. All songs are chosen randomly by using www.random.org true random number generator tool. Following is a list of acceptable songs for each difficulty. Feel free to add more songs to this list and please remember they must be available on customsforge.com and have a Lead and Bass arrangement at minimum (rythym is optional) for them to be valid entries. They may also be songs that are already included in Rocksmith 2014 but they cannot not be songs that are for sale by ubisoft as to make it fair for everyone.

  5. Every other music-related website I've been to has one of these threads, so we have to as well. I've been listening to Lake Street Dive pretty much nonstop since their new album came out last week. http://youtu.be/CPbfBijOqz8 They also have an excellent cover EP: http://youtu.be/6EPwRdVg5Ug

  7. Make sure under Song --> Track you've selected one of the REAL options (REAL_Guitar for the lead). That should make GP importing available.

  8. It's been happening to me as well beginning 5 days ago. I was lucky as I play on multiple computers so I copied the save file from an uncorrupted game and transferred it to the box with the blown save file. I have been backing up the game every so often as I go since then. I guess I will keep doing it while I wait for for someone smarter than me to diagnose and fix this problem. BTW, your Win 7 save file location is: C:> Program Files(x86) > Steam > userdata > (your ID number) > 221680 > Remote Copy the whole Remote file to backup.

  10. Hi, folks. The latest hotfix (r1299) is in the first post. Changes are as follows: *Improved RS2 export to support sustain tech notes. *Fixed a crash that could occur when performing a chord name lookup on a fully string muted chord. *Updated the "Correct chord fingering" function to alter the regular notes instead of tech notes. *Disabled the ability to apply fret or finger definitions for tech notes, since they don't use those values. *Fixed a bug where tech view wasn't disabled when importing a Guitar Pro track, which would cause the import to malfunction. *Updated Guitar Pro import to create tech notes for any complex bends defined in the imported track. In an effort to enrage the community, I have gone back to SendSpace. But really, MediaFire wasn't working right in the current stable release of Firefox, and the download counter doesn't work so that's two strikes against it, I'll round up to three just because I already disliked it. Plans for hosting EOF on something besides SendSpace are in the works.

  11. 1. export song from GPA, make sure "Copy tab & audio" is checked (like I mentioned, you need licensed GPA to do this)2. in EoF choose Guitar Pro import but select exported XML file, it will also start GP import right after it imports sync info

  12. Have iTunes on shuffle, so right now, it's "Mars, The Bringer Of War" from Holst's The Planets, played by the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
