Not sure if the solo is possible to 100%it because of Rocksmith's recognition issues.

It's all enjoyable songs

The first section of the solo, I have set to ignore all those notes. It's a bunch of natural harmonics on non-typical frets, so no penalties.

Still getting phantom misses on this...I ultimately used a really loud tone from one of @ GoatHerd 's CDLC and played with a pick and that seemed to help but I still couldn't get the 100% despite playing it perfectly.

Great song and no issues with the chart, just note recognition...not sure if this is something you could look at @ Hameron ? The custom tone itself is also really quiet.

Any ideas when or what sections?

If you do it today/tomorrow, maybe someone will use it to improve their score, but this week is coming to the end so I'm not forcing you to do it.

Okay. It's updated for lead and rhythm now, with plenty of handshapes.

Do you guys want me to update and upload "Wait" with more handshapes, or just wait until after this championship week is over?

really good begginner song. I think i like listening to the song more than playing it though.



like i said last week, think this one is probably her best song (atleast compared to the ones one here) good tab glad to be able to play the guitar parts now thanks @ Mikson  
Another option to play the riff would be replacing the blue 5s with 0s on the next string  main riff
and then in the modulated part/ keychange towards the end its kinda like the cult of personality riff  you place middle finger on 3  then blue 5 orange 2 orange 5
but 0s do become kinda hard to see in rocksmith (atleast they throw me of...never liked open strings in gh either) sometimes string skipping can be harder aswell and it is more clear on the modulated place the way you tabbed it so kudos!

nice song i think i could 100 it but not sure if i have enough time




 
Sweet! Another of my song suggestions got picked  thanks!
Its probably the most watched music video for me/ memorable just cause they stage the guitarist playing the guitar with a bow in the violin solo hehe.
I do want to say the suggestions i made for 500 were mostly based on guitar fun to play...not really accuracy and dont think i tried bass on them.

Also this is a new file compared to the one i originally played.. think the old one got erased. this one seems better so thats good thanks @ Hameron !
i agree with the slides (also think atleast the last chord slide should be unpitched)
itd be nice if the solo was divided a bit more so that its easier to practice (think theres too much notes to remember/ practice the way it is)
i think the bass should probably follow the guitar riff more i dont hear the orange notes... heres a quick isolated bass track might help?

theres some harmonics missing on the rhythm path.

I'm not sure when in the song you're referring to. It's possible it's a little different from the 1987 music video version. I mean, the ending did change (or is an alternate take from the studio remixed). Here's my isolated bass file:

Yeah, I am having the same issue and it's pretty frustrating! Did a lot of riff repeating just in this part... I have to play the harmonics very loud and many times to get them recognized, but sometimes doesn't work.

I  am giving up and just playing it as a normal note in the same fret, which gets recognized by RS. 

Are you guys talking about the series of harmonics starting with 4-7-5 on the D string, etc.? You might be able to substitute that 4 with a 7th fret B string harmonic.

@Mikson thanks for letting me know. I'll pay more attention to how well those long ones get recognized in the future.

Lead

Easy chart, but some weird chords in final part (classic G5 power chord with e string at 5th fret).

Simply the best.   I was hesitant as to whether this would fit as a difficult beginner, but I think there are some technical licks here more for intermediate level.

A nice song with an interesting chart and a short but quite difficult solo. 

I have some problems with this, because @ Hameron  mainly uses pitched slides in his CDLCs, which is often difficult for Rocksmith to detect, especially with long slides or chord slides.

I really like this band, especially for their melodic riffs. But this is damn fast...

Sorry, man. I guess it does make it more difficult to get to 100%. I tend to make slides pitched when I can "hear" the notes move up or down. And unpitched if it's just a screech.

Where were you having the most trouble getting detection? The typical Whitesnake low E string slide down, or the "Buildup" part where there are some 7/14 slides on the A string followed by the 12th fret G triad? Or somewhere else.

WEEK 500 is coming up

and

THERE IS ONE AND A HALF WEEK LEFT ONLY!!!!

Come on everyone!

Let us know your most favourite and fun to play CDLC!

We wanna make that week a blast!

Just post here or in that post:

so we have a cool collection of ideas to vote or select from!

Rock! Rod.

I have one I made that I keep hoping gets picked, but you guys are generous enough to have already picked a few others of mine. (Wait by White Lion) but I can wait awhile in hopes it gets called on.

Seems you know the band pretty well, you might be the first person I have spoken to who does. 

Thinking new or old Kenny? I find I really like his voice, but I think I like Eric's style better. The Kenny version of Rise is a favorite because it kind of blends the two.

I don't know that I would be of much if any help but if you want to give me a crash course I might be able to help with the computer part of it. Probably useless at laying out the tabs though.

I think Erik's better, but the difference isn't that much that it would make them two different bands. I'm fine with Kenny, and I like that the band has really only had 7 members after all this time, with two having returned.

I'm probably going to do 2 songs the next time I release something. One old and one new.

As far as how to do CDLCs, check out the Customsforge Discord. There are people who are way more available than me with tips and how to get started.

don't know if you have the opportunity, but if you could look into eclipse (sweden) that would be amazing. 

Really love your work and hoping you might do some more HEAT as well.

Yeah, there's so much out there I'd love to be CDLCs. I wish more people were making them for these types of bands.

I don't know when I'll get back to HEAT, but they're pretty high on my priority. Probably a couple of Kenny songs, since I've already done a couple of Erik songs.

Alright, I figured I might as well make a video of it. It's silent, but I added text to show what I meant.

I know, it'd be easier to show in a video example or something, but anyway... Typical scenario for me... a phrase like

 "Do you want to go" followed by a second phrase like "I'mm ready"

1) I select "I'mm" and edit the spelling. Then press OK.

2) After pressing OK, it's still highlighted/selected without me doing anything else (and currently the only thing selected). I need to make this second phrase move a half second over, so...

3) I Shift+Click on "ready", with the intention that since "I'm" is highlighted, then shift+clicking "ready" would only select those two words. But instead, EOF selected everything to the left as well, so the previous phrase and everything before that gets selected.

I use shift+click a lot for the lyrics to move phrases around to where I perfectly want it to be, maybe do a control+M afterwards if I changed the placement or sustain amount.

The thing is, if I'm not editing a word. Like I'm just selecting one, then do Shift+Click on a word to the right, those words and the words in between those words get selected. As expected.

But like I mentioned above, if I go into and correct the spelling of a word, then press OK, a Shift+Click on a word to the right would select everything to the left all the way to the beginning of the song. It's a weird result that I don't think makes sense.

I don't know if this has been reported before, but I can pretty consistently reproduce this "bug" in EOF...

While editing PART VOCALs, when I add a word or edit a word (Edit Lyric dialog box), then press OK out of it... if the next thing I do is a Shift + Click on a different word on the current screen, everything to the left gets selected. I don't think that's the intended action is it?

I'll have to experiment some more, because I had tap harmonics a few songs back. I can't remember which song. But setting just natural harmonic and the T on it, I couldn't get the game to recognize it. Even when playing at slower speeds. So I just marked it as Ignore.

It's not as convenient, but you can use the Song>Seek>Bookmark> menu.  There are keyboard accelerators for each of these so you could use ALT+S, S, B and press a number key to jump to that bookmark (5 keystrokes).

Thanks. I know this probably isn't one of those priority things.

In the meantime, I might need to look for ways to create macros that will do those steps and map it to FN+NumberKey or something.

Is there a way to use the regular number keys (or an alternate method) instead of the numpad keys for jumping to spots I've set in a song?

I sometimes work on my laptop instead of my desktop PC, and my Lenovo laptop doesn't have a numpad.

 

I haven't gone through all the ones listed for "You" as the artist to check, but I'm wondering about something. What are you all's thoughts on using short real clips from songs in one exercise file. For instance if there's a "You - Play Like Van Halen" created, that has two minutes worth of clips from 10 different songs chopped together. Is that okay?

 

(Obviously, if an artist that has ODLCs is done, none of the clips include DLC songs)

 

 

I would not name it as "You", because it's probably not exercising a precise technique.

And it isn't either an educational tutorial from an Artist. But under YouArtist would still be alright.

 

I would keep it under Van Halen - 

2 Minutes of 10 songs each is a pretty long compilation of 20 minutes, finding the right part to exercise may not be very comfortable.

I think You exercices should remain short, with not too may sections, to quickly find and remember what you want to train.

Okay. I saw the one "You" CDLC that was Yngwie Malmsteen Classic Exercises and thought that might be the model initially. Are there any YouArtist files in ignition? I only see a bunch of You ones.

Sorry, that last part, I meant as an example... two minutes for the entire CDLC of 10 songs. So on average, about 12 second clips from each song.

Hmm. I took the delay off for the version 1.0 release. I guess we'll see if people want it back. It should be in there if a person loads the tones of the song from Rocksmith and uses that for their own tone.

I'm working on a song that has a pretty big echo in a spot. I can match the timing by adding a delay to the tone, but here's the problem...

When doing Riff Repeater at below 100% speed, it gets all wack. The song's delay effect gets slower, but the guitar's delay remains the same. So I'm not sure, but this could be pretty annoying for anyone practicing at a slower speed, so this might just be a design decision.

Should I just remove the delay in the guitar tone?

Okay. Thanks.

Are the sections any different from one another? Like I haven't noticed a difference between "bridge" and "prechorus" for instance. Does fade in or fade out affect the player's guitar volume?

It's not exactly what you need, but the guitarbackingtrack.com site has a lot of mp3s of songs without certain parts. They're usually bass, drums, and rhythm for a lead guitarist to play to but sometimes they have different parts taken out. There are some with vocals too.
