Even Flow's Guitar is waaaaay too loud

Pigs have flown, hell has frozen over, various other unlikely events have surely taken place because I finished top on a MC Lead song for the first time ever !!! Genuinely pleased with that :) Joining the championship has been one of the best decisions I've made ! Anywho, started the new week today with a run through of all the bass parts http://s22.postimg.org/fym45rr6p/depeche_mode_heaven_bass.png http://s17.postimg.org/iekmgi1tr/skunk_anansie_weak_as_i_am_bass.png I haven't heard this song since the time it was released - was it really 20 years ago ??? I feel old. http://s29.postimg.org/xzau9k1zr/charlie_christian_seven_come_eleven_bass.png Cool little jazz number, pity it's so short. http://s10.postimg.org/4t2a0w1ll/kid_creole_the_coconuts_endicott_bass.png http://s13.postimg.org/k7t03n9rr/pearl_jam_even_flow_bass.png Yep, I picked a song with a slide to the 20th fret when I only have 19 ! If anyone's doing some tweaking maybe they'd consider making those slides unpitched ?

I had to have another go at this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKZmxJbkdDbVlfbFU/view?usp=sharing And I had to have a few more goes on the U-basses, as well. I won't post the scores though, because I wasn't used to the short scale. :D I thought there would be a lot of work to do on this this week: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKYjJVNmF4bElvV2s/view?usp=sharing Some odd patterns to it, but not too difficult to pick up: (Spam warning…) https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKZ21ldWNGT25sNjg/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKbEdwR0tWMWUzMTg/view?usp=sharing

Okay, much better :) http://oi64.tinypic.com/tamu85.jpg

beginner lead is super easy this week. even i might get 100% :ph34r: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/365157932084966013/416C7D1B722870E9C05B1534AF90AB659EC2EABA/

better streak http://up.picr.de/24453671ax.jpg

Okay albatross, how are you getting those 8-10 slides on the chorus to register? http://oi68.tinypic.com/9knm2g.jpg I can 100% the rest of the song otherwise

@ - I definitely agree about the tone volumes on Even Flow - particularly the filter one. I'll definitely be playing around with those soon. Oh, and I did this last night but forgot to post it. Adv lead: http://i.imgur.com/zalinOD.jpg Still kind of a spaz for some parts, but much better than my sightread. Picking in swing feel is kind of tricky for me.

Never heard this before but great tune! Plenty more in this but here's a first score: http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/aelk14u3pucji0p/221680_2016-01-31_00001.png?dl=0

On bass, Even Flow had a guitar tone, which was ridiculous, so I changed that. I also thought the song volume was quite quiet, so I increased the volume a bunch. And I increased the scroll speed (on all paths) because I dislike slow scroll speeds. Didn't change some of the other things I would have liked to (a lot of As in the song would be easier as open As rather than playing on the low D string. Didn't play with tone volumes on guitars yet, so those might be too low now. Anyway, here's my score. http://i.imgur.com/doeo2R3.jpg

First scores: (I thought I'd got 100% on this, but must have buggered it up somewhere along the way) https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKWER2SUV6UVM3blU/view?usp=sharing I was pleasantly surprised by my score on this, because I've played it before and only got 92%: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKV3Ezd1Z0eGRHclU/view?usp=sharing Maybe I did better tonight because I expected to play Weak and not Weep as I originally thought... Quite like this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKaHc4SDB1TFlNWlE/view?usp=sharing Endicott is going to have to wait until tomorrow. I'm too tired. :D

You should have an audio folder at the top (if you sort by name) in the folder from the unpacked psarc file Inside that there is a folder called windows and inside that you should see the .wem and .ogg audio files. Open the audio files in something like VLC to see which one is the preview and which is the full song. Start a new project in EOF and use that the full song .ogg file. Then in EOF you choose to import the RS XML file and browse to [unpacked folder name] > songs > arr and there you should see the individual charts for the instruments. Make whatever edits you want and then save it, then you just repack it in the Toolkit

Go to Packer/Unpacker Check both boxes in the Unpacker section and then click the Unpack button Find the files you downloaded and specify where you want it to be unpacked Then just dig around in the files and find the arrangement for the instrument(s) you want to edit in EOF.

I've been working on too many things and not perfecting any of them. Here is proof of my temporary mediocrity (at least I hope that it's temporary) Heaven = 96% I'm just not getting the slides right Weak = 97% That riff isn't coming naturally to me Seven Come Eleven = 97% I'm getting up to speed I'll keep working on Seven Come Eleven and start on Endicott tomorrow

nice one :D http://up.picr.de/24453149ns.jpg

I'm laughing so hard Dave is a true argentinian

Thanks so much, I will work my way through the list. I know I say it a lot, but great community on this site. All the effort the charters, site admins, modders and users all put in is astonishing. Its appreciated and means a dope like me can finally play an instrument for the first time in my life. Your work is enriching lives!

How about some Mastodon? I'd suggest Stargasm for Intermediate (5) http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/stargasm-r6889 Naked Burn for Advanced (7) http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/naked-burn-r5655 The Czar for Masterclass (9) http://customsforge.com/page/customsforge_rs_2014_cdlc.html/_/pc-enabled-rs-2014-cdlc/the-czar-usurperescapemartyrspiral-r7147

Great selection this week. I'd better get busy - there's a lot that I want to play. :D

Cannot post at all! (so why am I writing this?) But I am pretty tired of writing a comment, hitting Enter and then it just dissappears.
