The real tone cable has its's own USB-ID and the program asks for this. There is no way to use another cable. You have to buy a RealTone cable.

Each game has its own basic set of songs. There are no duplicate songs. You'll find the setlists on wikipedia for Rocksmith and Rocksmith 2014. If you spend 10,- € you can buy the disc importer tool for Rocksmith 2014 which will import all Songs of Rocksmith if you own both programs.

Description: This one might be a little hard to reproduce. I'm sorting the table for column "Artist". Afterwards i select the first and the third item.

1. When moving the mouse over the second row, the item will change to state "selected", but i never clicked it.
2. Even when not moving the mouse over the second row, when clicking the button "Enable/Disable selected" all three rows will change their status.

After that, i click on the fifth row. The same moment, the third row will be selected as well showing the status change immediately.

Reproduction steps:

Start the App
Select tab "Song Manager"
Click on the column header "Artist"
Select some rows
Click on "Enable/Disable selected"

The selection of rows has gone crazy. You select one row and others will be selected as well.

Well ... The app doesn't crash when clicking. But nevertheless the column isn't sortable. The log shows:

 

Error: Sorting failed. Can not sort on an empty column.

In fact the formatting of this column is mixed. Some songs show "6-28-14 14:22" (MM-DD-YYYY hh:mm seems to be US/UK format) others show "04.01.2015" (DD-MM-YYYY german format, my default).

I would open two new issues: One for the mixed up formatting, one for the missing ability of sorting by update.

Nevertheless i marked this issue as "solved" because it is.

I'm able to reproduce this one. I get the same error as BHMat.

@a.peter does this happens also even when you remove all files from My Documents/CFM directory?

Yes, even if i remove the whole CFM directory, the error occurs.

Description: When clicking on the column "Updated" to sort it, the application crashes.

This error message shown is:

Marked as solved. Thanks a lot.

The songs are for download only. You have to buy the old Rocksmith and the Disc Importer Pack. No other way than this.

Excellent bug report I must say! Thanks for that

I'm working as a software developer. I know how to make a good bug report. ;)

BTW: Thanks a lot for this software to everyone.

GP6 format isn't supported. Export your tab to GP5 format and import it into EOF.

I do have the same error as ILIKEMUSIQ. Running as administrator ... didn't work. Changing permissions on the folders ... didn't work. Moving the app to my home directory ... didn't work.

I did some research and found this article at an microsoft forum. Maybe it helps.

Some thoughts on you idea.

RS 2014 does need the UbiSoft RealToneCable. This cable is a simple Audio to USB interface. Input is a audio signal with guitar levels. You would have to modify your drums to convert the hit of a drum into a frequency and put this into the RealToneCable. Your drum set has a MIDI out. Each drum will have it's own note. You may use that note to put it into a synthesizer to create a tone. This tone has to be put into the RealToneCable.

Because RS 2014 needs a tuning of the Guitar, you will have to modifiy the note values of the drum set to be converted to the notes of the guitar strings. Otherwise you won't be able to "tune" the guitar. In your case, the "tuning" will only be hitting 6 drums one time. -> You need something to convert MIDI notes into other notes.

To learn a longer phrase, i use Rocksmith To Tab to convert the included Tabs to GP5 format. You may open it using either Guitar Pro or the free alternative Tux Guitar. Then i learn the song measure by measure.

Furthermore i think that the Beats & Phrases Resynchronizer is able to change the phrases of RS DLCs.

My advice: Go to a guitar shop and put your hands on guitars from 500 € to 900 €. You have to play a guitar to know if it fits to you. Don't look at names, don't look at the country they were produced. Just play them.

Not as powerful as Band In A Box i've installed iReal Pro on my android smartphone. Nice program, sound is all right and quite a lot of free stuff is available. I'm practising some Jazz songs with it. You may have a look at it too.

Have you followed each step in the tutorial? Remember that most songs are needing the original Cherub Rock to be bought. You'll either buy this song or you have to change the ID for all downloaded CDLC to mach one original DLC you have bought.

To learn more complex tabs i'm not using RS at first. Instead i use RocksmithToTab to convert the DLC to Guitar Pro format. Using Guitar Pro i learn the complex parts of the songs. When i'm able to play the song with about 70% tempo i switch back to RS.

Great package! Wonderful!

And after watching the "behind the scenes" videos i hope that people stop complaining about the price of the DLCs. They are worth every penny. Such amount of work done for each of them.

Now i wish more jazz for RS. :wub:

I'm still very much a beginner, I don't know if I could properly assess a guitar just by holding it and plunking away in a shop.

I was a beginner too. You will be able to tell if it fits to you. Believe me.

I've just taken my Eddi Cochran song and compared the original tab with the output of your tool: almost the same. I've found just one little difference.

I will love this tool, because i like to learn the more complicated parts of a song offline without RockSmith. Have you thought about a donating page for your tool?

One nice enhancement would be to add the RS sections into the generated tab.

Recently i bought a new guitar. And i learned: Go to several guitar shops and play the guitars. If you feel comfortable while playing, it's worth it. Othewise don't take it.

I thought about a 300 € guitar and played quite a lot of these, but there was nothing i liked. I played a couple of 800 € guitars but ended up with a 550 € Hagstrom because this one was perfect for me.

So: Don't look for brands, just play them.

I had the same issue. A look into the xml file showed up:

<sync>17#-30;0;0;...

After changing the "-30" to "0", the import worked.

Depends on the platform. I only know for PC, the RS toolkit suggests this directory automatically, it's "<drive>:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonRocksmith2014dlcInlays". For other platforms i don't know where to put the files.

On the "Inlay Creator" page is a link to the authors page. There you may donate the software if you think it's worth a few money.
