I was fairly certain I bought Lamb of God "Omerta" as real DLC replacing old CDLC.  Now I don't see it in game or on STEAM. There is also only one copy in the CDLC database but it's only lead. I know for a fact there were multiple CDLC versions  in the past with bass and guitars ( I have several in old backups).

Can anyone confirm if I have officially gone insane or some crazy Mandela effect stuff going on possibly?

Is there anyway to like batch kill the lyrics similar to app ID updating?

When playing 2 player it is just impossible to play the bottom half sometimes when the lyrics aren't properly setup. They end up covering all your upcoming notes and it would be great to just get rid of all of them. I don't really want to try and remove them individually. 

Setting up the lyric phrasing might be something good to add into the stickied tutorials if it's not already there. Stress the importance of how the phrases display if not configured correctly. A little side by side of how 1 player may be fine but not 2 player. 

I have made a script updating the saves vice versa and saving them everytime.

 

If you need something, scream!

I got it , thanks though! It was super easy once I tried. I was just afraid of pulling something game crashing and wrecking the inaugural run. Playing with fresh profiles is just a pain 2 player trying to remember which ones are in that sweet spot of challenging but not impossible for both. 

I did see your post about away games and enacted a library share to keep them synced like you mentioned so thanks for that idea.

I got it working. Just had to go for it with the CGT transfer option. 

I wasn't having any luck finding info on this. Sorry if there is already a thread. Trying to take our multiplayer saves over to a friends PC but he has his own Copy so I was trying to figure out if it is possible to transfer the saves over?  If anyone has a link to instructions that would be appreciated.

I did see the transfer option in CGT but that is not super specific on what you need where, whose profile ID , etc. 

I have an old one from I picked up from SA but it is not very good (only copy I have ever come across).  Would be better off trying to put in a request for someone to make a new one.  The back track is pretty compressed and sync is pretty bad.

Yes, be careful with heavy gauge... I use DR DDT on all my bass'.  If you are using stock tuners they are likely to eventually give out if you are pushing them back up to standard tuning (As I do).  I recently had a peg sheer off which made a rather exciting popping sound as the string and peg went flying.

To remedy this I have cannibalized the tuners off a 5 string for the higher tension pegs on the 4 strings.  I would imagine this is one of those questions that will vary wildly based on your guitars tuners and age.   As  dazedandbemused said be careful with the nut too.  I destroyed one of those and had to replace it . If you go too far you will have a nasty buzz that can basically only be properly remedied by replacing the nut. 

My guitar player also uses the E.B.  "Skinny Top Heavy Bottom" strings suggested by MOZ.  Though he can generally tune down to B and notes recognize OK they are pretty sloppy tension wise.  C standard is the lowest he like to play on them and that is even pushing it. 

I force myself to drink water for muscles.

I don't play the same song more than 2-3 times, it seems to me that the exact same chords/exact same fingers position repeated too much causes stress on nerves/muscles and lead to pain.

you may progress slower, but in the end if you've got serious injury you'll completely stop.

 

I warmup with 1-2 songs i master at 85/90% mini, then i can switch on more difficult songs and play several hours without pain.

 

I know when i have to calm down (when you play a long fast BPM section and you feel the muscles heating and the number of notes you hit sudenly start to decrease as the heat increase).

In this case i play another song and if it happens on another song, i stop playing guitar for the day.

following those rules allow me to play 4h or more if i want, but i stop if i feel something bad even if i've only play few song and i would like to continue.

I've never play more than 7h the same day with little pauses here and there.

I have a very similar routine and second just about everything except the water part .  I find the Captain or Beer to be much better to keep the old muscles loose lol, true but lol.  I really only seriously started playing when the original RS launched and all the things the O.P. is describing are totally normal as you are progressing and getting stronger.

 Eventually your callouses will never peel again and you will have iron finger tips.  I call the wrist lock "Da PUMP!" and it will happen less and less.  To elaborate on what Frack said if I get excited and rushed I will clamp my muscles tight, calm and loose is faster and less fatiguing.  If you stick with it and use generally sound technique you will eventually be able to for hours and hours with no problem.... I always play standing so its usually around hour 4-5 my back starts to hurt worse than anything else. 

Good luck and stick with it!

Since RS2011 6.  2 started dying, 2 actively used , 2 stashed for the looming extinction.

The 2 that started to die were weird.  I run a splitter setup and the audio to the amps started to get quiet and note recognition got poor.  That said they were original RS2011 cables so they had a couple thousand hours a piece on them.   

wooo!

bummer... I just had it happen to me.... hope this posts

I forget say, in windows need set output 48khz 16b, else "no device"

That did the trick!  It was the 48khz that did it for me.  The DR22 will not let me go to 16bit but seems to run fine on 24bit.

It only lists ASIO in the specs and thats all the driver program included.  I had to install the ASIO driver before it would work in windows.

  Now maybe there is something 3rd party driver that could force it but I didn't delve that deeply.   I am going to double check those audio settings when I get home but pretty sure tthey are setup correctly.

 

I had no luck using my Steinberg DR22.  My config is set exactly like Motive... and no dice.  Game gives me an error that no audio device is detected and tells me to close. 

 

Believe it all depends on your output compatibility.   RS can't do ASIO (which is what mine uses).  Looks like the U46Xl Esi has multiple modes (WDM being the magic bullet).

Steinberg DR22 should have WDM drivers as well! It works in windows right?

In case it wasn't clear one of your recently downloaded songs is the likely culprit.  Multiple copies of the same song (I.E. 1.0 and 2.0 of same tune) can also cause it.

It's kind of a risk you take with CDLC.  There is a save utility available on the boards that allows you to make backups of your savegame and cleanup the DLC folder.  Something you should definately look into.  In practice I rarely download songs from un established creators without at least a few positive reviews.  "this is my first custom" is a phrase that raises red flags for me.

Oh I would agree it's probably fixable (and I will look into that so thanks!) . 

What I am speaking about most are those songs that are intentionally in the wrong tuning just to avoid retuning guitars.  I just think that should at least be in the liner notes if not the title.  I just get frustrated I guess.  You are all geeked to play a song you love only to have it sound like garbage.

I was thinking creators should start tagging songs that are not tuned to match the background track as such.  What I am getting at is that some creators are making CDLC that does not match the tuning of the backing track because "some people do not like to drop tuning".

I personally cannot stand this as I play through amps and my guitars and bass are very prominent within any given song.  When songs are created in what I would call funky tunings this generally creates a horible clashing of notes.

I understand music can be transposed but you would really need to pitch shift the entire backing track to match for that to sound right.  To each his own, but if you need to turn your amp or in game audio all the way down in order to "not down tune" then you might as wll be playing Guitar Hero.

This is an amazing feature!  Thank you so much.  Just added a half dozen good but previously broke songs to my list.... so cool.... so freaking cool.

So I have played a host of songs at this point that have minor flaws but appear to be abandoned.  Is there a request page setup for songs that need work?  If not that would be sweet.  

There are a bunch of the low tuned bass songs that are charted correctly but do not recognize and have yet to receive the bass fix.  For instance I would love to see "your going down" by the Sick Puppies corrected.  It sounds correct to the ear but nothing recognizes.

I have mine setup using  2 Y-splitters (one for the bass amp and one for guitar amp) and am not having any feedback issues.  Make sure you turn off the Guitar/Bass sound in game.  Also just hooked up an 800W LTO powered PA for the in game audio track.  Super loud and awesome!

My amps have effects loops for pedals, could see putting pedals inline before the splitter causing issues.  Not sure what splitters everyone else is using but mine are 1xfemale and 2xmale.  I input the guitars into the female and use a Female to Female barrel connector facing the RS cable.

Just hopped on tonight and several songs I tried to download are redirecting to the forum not to a DL site?  Figured it was an uploader issue but 5 different songs I tried to snag of the newest crop are all doing the same thing.  Might want to take a look at that.

Donated $10 about a week ago prior to it going automatic

I went and bought a 5 string and it makes no difference when trying to tune to B ... The DDT strings are the way to go for low songs for sure but C-standard is as low as I (and everyone else I have talked to) can go on the bass.  

Totally agree.  I only play bass... even went and bought a 5 string hoping to hit Drop B and no go.  Fortunately Guitar Center has a 30 day return policy.  Swapped out for another 4 string Bass with DR-DDT  drop tuning strings.  I can play all the way down to C standard with those bad boys no problem.

So I am trying to fix a song here.  The bass line has 840 notes of which I hit 100% and the mastery with all difficulties (the song is DD) cranked up yet mastery shows 56.4%.  I was able to locate the line in the bass.json file with total notes.  So from here what line dictates the calculation of Mastery? 

 "Score_MaxNotes": 840.0,
