Here are my first results: Had some trouble importing a few songs (my PC has had some issues but some songs always end up corrupted). Fortunately the new song from Pearl Jam imported Ok Hadn't heard from East 17 in more than 20 years. Really liked the piano from the songs.

MC Lead Score YT Playthrough

Lets try again In the correct week Now to play the correct BSB Song

@ RaZrShReD I'm glad you liked it. When creating this CDLC, I used tabs from UG, but this tab was split into several guitar tracks, so for the lead path in RS I created something like a mix of these tracks (acoustic verse + chorus, riff and solo parts), but I modified the acoustic parts to have more solo notes, and left whole chords on the rhythm path. Ultimately, I am satisfied with the final result @ avastreg Do you mean volume of the tones? Tones are definitely ok because I spent some time on them and used the right tones for the different parts - acoustic for the verse and chorus, reverb with overdrive for the riff and wah for the solo. It sounds very good to me. Only the acoustic can be too quiet, I usually have a problem with this in RS, because when the acoustic tone is too loud it sounds worse, so I try to balance it. Other lead scores I thought Backstreet Boys in RS wtf? But then I played it and it turned out to be really fun to play

Mikson thank you for checking it out and creating the chart for this tune. i did have to record the video a bunch of times for this song and to get the tone sounding close to zakk (switching between clean and distortion and then adding wah & delays to the lead tone) and get the changes right and hence got to play the solo a few times before i got the right take for video. yes thats how it works! I am using a helix pedal to get my tones, have a few patches that need to be tweaked slightly for songs like these and I send clean signal thru RTC to PC to get good recognition. I am gonna take this moment to dive further into the history of my RS journey: i had briefly dabbled with RS on and off since it first came out in 2011 but never got into it due to audio latency on xbox and limited music selection, then i discovered CDLC's and twitch RS community in 2021 and got interested in learning to sightread as i saw other ppl do it proficiently. Due to Covid and some other reasons my band was on a hiatus and this was perfect to focus all my efforts on getting better at RS through streaming as I missed the live aspect of playing in the band. a year and a half later i was a little burnt out after 1000 plus hrs of streaming RS, and in 2023 I discovered this great RSC community with all of u wonderful ppl and it motivated me to play more and discover new music along the way, but i was missing the performance aspect. i have less time to stream now so makes sense for me to upload vids on YT which gives me the feeling of playing live & RSC gives me ideas for what to play. I appreciate all of u who are a part of this community & who make it happen week after week. my band is still inactive we need to record our album at some point lol... thank u if u read this far... keep on rocking!

cool song! it sounds to me like a cover of something else, like a dejavu beautiful tones are a bit unbalanced @ Mikson , but maybe it's just me with EMG active

First bass scores for this week!!! I can't see me improving much on the GOB song, Whoever wins that will definitely deserve the god of bass title! i'm using a new image hosting site instead of imgur so hopefully this will work better.

So hard this had to slow It down. I would give this a 6 at the least I suck

Yes, I'm ready to try intermediate - thanks!

Bass for Bsb

What kind of fingers do you need to play this?? 3-5-7 chords well k, this works out somehow, but 3-5-9 ?!?

@ Mikson I think most find a few tones they like and stick to them like a distortion a clean sound. I am sure I remember someone saying you can use a pedal to change these also ??

Its not just me right, Common People gets quicker and quicker towards the end of the song??

Better on the rhythm

Hate tuning down but love this bassline .

True. But I'm gonna check with a metronome to make sure

I don't remember this happening when I played it yesterday. Maybe you've warped space-time?

I see that you have been focusing on recording in recent weeks, good playing When I was doing and testing this CDLC, I found the solo to be really difficult, and you seem to have hit all the notes in this quick part! I see that you use your own tones/effects (not Rocksmith), I remember that @ Rodman once described here how it works, more or less, but I suppose that first you have to test CDLC and choose the right tones and then you just turn them on with the pedal at the right moment while playing?

Good suggestion. I'd actually been planning on improving the vocal display to highlight the current vocal, and I'll make that change as well.

Info. I changed difficulty rating for the song Pulp - Common People to 2.5 for Lead and 3 for Rhythm. Earlier, I only briefly checked this and added the grades from the selection list, which were repeated twice, but in my opinion they were a bit too low, especially for Rhythm. @ gspot Last week you achieved the highest scores in the intermediate class (Lead & Rhythm), even though you are competing in the beginner class. Do you want to continue competing in the beginner class for now or try a higher class?

bad recognition i got on those fast 15th fret runs. Cool song. will do better

yeah man... luckywise i can absolutely seperate a chart from my playing. . . . and i really am useless on sightreading arpeggios - it´s not fast, it´s 3 common chords on the arp. and it´s not a hard pattern, absolutely int, i go with 5-5.5 (though it´s a clear 7 for lamy me there). I never use your score for diff ratings! It tends to betray you! Trust your eyes. Great week! Rod

So I assume you got a maximum of 60%+ on your first attempt and yet you rated this a 5 in song selection list I raised the rating slightly to 5.5 but I'm still not sure if this is too difficult for intermediate players. I expect rather lower accuracy scores, but it's certainly a great chart for practicing arpeggios, which are quite repetitive here (which is why I decided to leave it in this class).

oh yes, we did it one of my top 3 fav soft pop songs of all time together with baby one more time from Britney and sensational Thunder from East17, just undeniably great songs even for the metalhead

picr.de - absolutely free and add free - yes it´s in german, but hey - click the orange banner, select file(s) and you get directly urls for forum screenshots. if you create an account your pics stay for good there

after some RR already close

I have used Postimage to test for last week and looks like it worked quite easy to use too, i think (not as easy as myimgur though). just remember to select direct image links when copying the links for the post. I may try some other service later, but postimage was the 1st one I got on google and didn't really had time to look for alternative.

Still a cool song

so then what do we use?

ok... mission-2-90 ... let´s go

oh i am still sooo great at arpeggios

Important Please don´t use IMGUR service for your screenshot posts - our automated recognition function cannot read those !!!! Thx Rock, Rod.

i have also updated react side so all scores are now aproved and marked pushed.
