Thankyou @ Mikson for hosting this week and for including one of my song suggestion ! First bass scores for this week! My new strings for my guitar arrived today so I can play lead and rhythm again!

Finally got that middle part on the 8th and 10th fret, I needed to do a little sweep from the B to E string else I got all messed up. Stilling messing up the slide in the main riff.

A couple of parts beyond my sight-reading skills, will need to RR...

RR helped, still messed up a couple of parts

I think we used a second version of that boy george song mid way through the week.

Well that's strange I know we played Karma chameleon A lot a few weeks back, and I got ok scores . But now Its showing 0% as though It has not even been played . Anyone know why this could be ??

Just hit this RS milestone! Improving slowly but surely

These would be really great for anyone serious about improving their playing skills. I think it would be awesome if the "skyline" picture turned RED on a slim vertical line at the point where you missed/botched a note, and at the end of the song you could drag over the skyline and see the highway scroll back to show you what you did wrong.

grats on the milestone achievement!! i remember that one took a while

I would love to have an alternative to RS, for all the reasons you listed plus a bunch more. I don't want to pepper you with requests, but if at all possible could you build the structure to support arbitrary instruments? So that yourself or modders can add new instrument templates in the future? I get the impression that RS was not coded that way, and that's why we don't have mods for 5/7 string instruments yet. To go along with that, if possible, could you create a way to algorithmically transpose/rewrite/edit CDLC from one arbitrary instrument to another. For instance a 4 string bass to a 5 string bass, etc. Good Luck, this will be huge if you can pull it off.

Scores from testing. Lead first. Good, easy Polish rock from the early 2000s, I remember this was played very often on the radio for many years. Nice, Pierce The Veil songs are interestingly arranged and good to play. Ah, Japanese rock, as always I could expect a crazy chart and I was not disappointed! Luckily this is within my ability to play and it's a really fun chart! Another good chart, after closer play this is 8.5 rather than 9 in terms of difficulty.

I wanted to hold off on my suggestions until I got a better list of improvements, but this guy gets it. It is so annoying about the section and not the notes needed to riff repeat. All too often, there is a huge space in bass sections that are breaks, or long single held notes before the start of the section needed, but it only contains a small portion of the "tricky section". Another, A way to review. Sure, if you are using Riff Repeater, you can play it again another time to see what notes where missed, but if you are just doing a play through, there is no easy way to review or see what was scored as wrong. To add to that is some way to say, "why it was wrong". Fret too high, fret too low, (something dumb like that or wrong string) but also, the bends. Why was the bend or slide not scored or registered as correct. Not bent far enough? Over bent? slide too soon? too late? not far enough? all frustrating parts that often take repeated guesses for a beginner.

Cool, I'm glad it's proven to be useful! I've been working on a new version, now with a proper user interface to save few clicks (and remembering settings like target folder etc) and to make the conversion process much faster. I'm hoping to add some other features as well, but it's still very much work in progress. In the mean time the current version should serve well enough. Teaser picture attached
