  1. 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!

  2. @ 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

  3. I haven't played bass for awhile. PAIN I also tried GoB, but that only resulted in cramps half way through.

  4. I haven't played the rhythm one yet, but the Lead one has similar things happening, with like 5-7-10 which I can reach with index, middle, pinky but 3-5-9 is definitely impossible for me too. My guess is that either the guitar players really have huge hands or they play it differently from the transcription and 3-5-9 is 3-5-x-4 instead skipping the D string, which would go for most other big reaches as well. I'm advanced and suck at it too. It looks quite learnable to me and compared to my rank up song and other similar songs in that score range I think 5.5/6 is a good score - Just sometimes songs have arpeggios/patterns that we have to learn first but then they get easy Any intermediate player who is able to get 99%+ this week definitely belongs to advanced I think. I can't tell if it should be in int or adv. But maybe a song like this is perfect to be in both categories at once? So both classes can compete in it (Might be a good idea for more songs in the future toothat have scores like that too - I'm not tempted too much to grind a good score at a class that's lower than my own) One caveat might be that I don't know how Rodman's Ratings would be affected by this, but in general if it's 5.5 it should be still good for adv. bonus as well? ---- For me, I should probably nail the Backstreet boys song well and it'd be good practice. But I'm so tempted on focusing on the MC song instead because that solo looks like a great challenge that's learnable (Maybe not quick enough in a couple of days but we'll see) === First plays of the week

  10. 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.

  15. I agree that it is tougher than expected for an intermediate song. The end for me is more in line with the intermediate level but the arpeggiated intro with the chord change from F# to the full voiced D major (C chord shape of CAGED) is super tough. I might try it with a different guitar as well. Once you have that chord change down with the picking pattern it should be a 90+ for me hopefully. Anyway, a very good challenge for my first intermediate attempt.

  16. 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

  17. 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.

  22. Tough call. As you mention, once you get the main picking pattern down scores should jump up (since the bulk of the song is the same pattern).

  23. Improvements (and the right version of BsB ) I don't know if it's my resilience or some notes not getting recognized... But through the comments discovered and tried RSMods, so I'm using the mod to show the note played and see if it helps And many thanks to all the community for the hard work , dedication and good vibes

  25. yes i enjoyed playing this chart. always fascinated by the process of RS chart creation, thanks for sharing! its a bit annoying when lead charts are missing some parts or not playing the parts u want to play ... i guess some people dont always combine different paths in UG tabs... ur work is greatly appreciated!

  28. 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

  29. 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).

  33. Hi guys, I am back. Im going to try to post my results here every week. Im going to begin with advanced one. I know that long time ago someone (sorry I forgot the name) promoted me to masterclass, but there is also a long time I does not play with bass... So, there is my results...

  34. Like most carpentry work i do i'm only good for roughing it in. If you really want the finishing touches you're going to need a lot of trim to hide my work.

  38. This slide recognition is inconsistent and feels kinda unfair I'll keep trying some more to find an approach that's more consistent, but I'll probably move on, learning something else
