Hi, after the rocksmith remastered new update with the "no cable, mic and realtone cable" options on 14/12/16, my realtone cable stopped working. now here is the tricky part. ive tested 2 realtone cables, ive been into the recording property's and checked (listen to this devise) and cable works fine, ive uninstalled RSR (and yes lost all my cdlc's ffs) ive reinstalled RSR back to default (no extra DLL's just stock RSR) and i still have the same problem. my system win 10, i7 cpu, 6 gig ram, asus Xonar Essence pci e soundcard, all have been working since original rocksmith 1 so i get to the sound check part (because the new update corrupted my profile) and once it starts for the calibrate sound the error pops up " sounds like your cable is unplugged. connect a rocksmith real tone cable" i then have tried other usb ports. my only option now is to go out and buy a usb microphone or play with no cable.
