You can play "Score Attack" On Hard or "Learn a Song" with all sections mastered (all purple): You may also play a song which does not have DD on Score Attack easy if you cannot get through it on hard as all the notes will still show up on easy but it won't X you out as easily. 3.

If you enter to the contest the first time, you choose your class. 3.2 You are then leveled automatically as follows: 3x =>90% (3 weeks in a row) or 1x 98% qualifies you for the next class. If you score <=79% on a level two weeks in a row you are leveled down one class.

Great scores guys. Keep them coming. Played several times through Wind cries mary and Rocksmith tells my that my score could be better. It could be better indeed considering the fact that I learned this song many years ago. This CDLC seems to be converted 1:1 from the RS1 version. In RS1 there was no possibility to chart chord embellishments (hammer ons and pull offs in a chord). But this song (like every Hendrix song) is full of chord embellishments. When I try to play what I see on the screen it sounds nothing like Hendrix. I then ignored most of the notes on the screen and tried to play what I hear on the record. Probably I can get a better score by just strummming like a maniac the chords. http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/616172708102672840/F130257466CDA5751FF4746C03AFD64BBD731E51/

Ok Krazyone then we will insert the points. I stopped reading when I saw that Wind Cries Mary was chosen this week. But now I see we got also Back in Black this week. I think I'll have to join Masterclass too this week. Will be hard for me since I have a limited amount of time at the moment.

Wow nice intermediate song this week. One of my favourite Hendrix songs. @ I am not sure if it's worth the effort to also insert the points. I think you get more points when you play exactly in time. But for RS this means you have to play what you see and not what you hear, since no CDLC is EXACTLY in sync with the music.

If I remember correctly they wanted to include a default custom tone into the toolkit. So even if you don't create a custom tone the build .psarc will have one. Edit: just looked into the toolkit update notes. It seems this is implemented allready since version 2.3.1.0 2.3.1.0: * Fixed CAPO feature in CLDC; * Fixed Tuning Pitch (CentOffSet) for some tuning frequencies; * Added option to duplicate a tone; * Fixed DLC Converter when convert X360 packages from another platform; * A lot of fixes in DLC Converter (song year is 0, lost dynamic density, vocal and preview are lost, etc); * Recover RS2012 package generation support; * DDC updated to 1.9; * A lot fixes for DDC integration; * Added default name when generate package; * Added version field for user define version of the package; * Added validation for null tones to avoid problem with CDLC;

Tried the hard bass part on Parisienne: http://cloud-3.steampowered.com/ugc/612794559818269689/4743449CB320DBE2348431023C83894CB9FF13A0/

@ welcome to the Championship. Nice start with 100%. Leaderboard updated

Yes it is exporting to GP5. I am a long time GP user (since version 3) and in every version you could use the triplet/shuffle notation. This notation is common in blues or jazz with a swing feeling. This symbol notates that eights are swung even when they are notated as straight eight notes later in the chart. When you have a GP file or a sheet book with this symbol you have to change every eight note which falls on a beat to a quarter note and tie it as a triplet to the next eight note.

I was talking about this: http://fiddlejaminstitute.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/swing-graphic.jpg I don't have TuxGuitar. I'm creating my tabs in GuitarPro 6.

Are you sure dotted note are not working? The swing/shuffle feeling is also not importing from GP files. All imported eight notes are straight.

Come on guys.. don't do this to me... now I will have to play Kashmir again..
