bit better

@diceslinger guitar, bass, vocals, no post recording effects whatsoever Ok found time for a lil info. I though suggest you listen first, read later. That was much fun again. There are some songs i really have in my brain accurately though not listening to them for years. That´s one of those. Right the moment i read we had to do that i was thinking i´ll make a very basic campfiry version guitarwise to remember (as you know was the reason to start the whole thing). So for a start i listened to the song once, bought the dlc, played the guitar parts, then looked at the chords from the "official" UG version and recorded a playthrough with my standard clean tone on my strat which made it to the recording. Added a very backgroundy urban kit drumline, recorded a simple bassline and had a lot of fun singing it a few times (i hope your ears don´t hurt too much), i couldn´t use any effects on vocals and instruments because when setting up the project on my Zoom R24 i chose 48kHz instead if 44.1, and when all was in the box and i wanted to start adding a lil chorus on guitar "44.1 kHz only" popped up.... However ... sign from the gods or rookie mistake, so all i did was pan the guitar and bass on either sides and mixed the volumes... isn´t it insane how different that all sounds when you go cellphone/stereosystem/headphones. Thx for that choice, happy with the result, cannot waitr for your version. Picture is from Mount Dobratsch, taken by my wife last week on a Ski tour, blurred vision is caused by Sahara Sand that has been blown here all the way - oh i wish i had been there for that view! Rod.

Speaking of visualizing the Sabaton. Sometimes I use the RockSmithToTab program. It has helped a few times to get understand the music (as said, I'm rather good with notes): This didn't help me: I'll get back to listening, but it's so fast...

You don't need to wonder, you are welcome to ask and communicate with the people doing selections, or simply offer what you think the level should be. It's unfair and unnecessary to suggest that we are not comparing levels. I personally tested every bass chart this week, and even "tested" lead and rhythm paths by watching them in RS or on YT playthroughs so I could validate the levels. When a song is requested in the SSL sheet, the requester provides their ratings and then others can test. For example, Seven Pillars of Wisdom was originally rated a 3 difficulty on bass. When I tested it, I found it to be clearly higher but not quite advanced level as I got over 99% on my sightread. I was using a pick, which is generally my preference for Sabaton tracks, and I can see why finger picking it would make it harder. You also should consider that everyone has different strengths and weaknesses that affect their perception of difficulty. I have no issue with 16th note strumming and even 32nd note strumming but can sometimes get tripped up by fast string jumping or notes on the higher (15+) frets. Last week you complained about the Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus bass chart as if the game just wasn't recognizing your playing, but no one else seemed to have a problem with that. You also complained about The Gold rhythm being "off" but I'm certain the chart was correct, and again no one else seemed to find fault with it other than the fact that it's just a bit trickier to play a 6/8 time signature when you're used to 4/4. Anyway, I don't have strong feelings about the Make It Rain difficulty, but I'm not sure how you can argue that Seven Pillars of Wisdom should be ranked more difficult than The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg. Maybe try a pick if you haven't already?

the link to download the update does not work for me, is there another place i can download it from?
