richomat

You can import text tabs into Guitar Pro and work from there. Text tabs are usually very rough and do not contain note lengths. You will have to edit the tab in the Guitar Pro file until the playack sounds like the song.

Then you can import the Guitar Pro file into EOF and align the beats to the track.

Nice scores everybody..

Leaderboard updated

@@Smile great score man! you can do the 100%

@@Ard Guitar Welcome back Ard. Nice score hehe 87/87/87.. You can do better, now you should go for 91/91/91.. it's easier for us to update the Leaderboard when you keep the streak and accuracy the same..

@@Smile yes that song is allowed...

I have just a minor glitch with Blood Brothers.. I can not select the first section in Riff Repeater.. before starting the song it looks like there is no DD (only a yelllow line).. but when I go into Riff Repeater it looks like there is DD (purple blocks).. to train the first section I have to restart the song over and over and I am not shure if the game shows me all notes of this section..

@@SrMouraSilva Welcome to the Championship. Everybody can play here.When you post a score from Learn a Song all Phrases of the song have to be at 100% difficulty (purple). Some of the phrases on your screenshot are still orange.

If it is a 5mm allen bolt then you can hammer a 6mm torx key into it.

I ordered a Gibson 339 2 years ago from an huge internet music store. After the guitar arrived I took it out of the case played a few licks and during every slide my fingers were going bump bump bump. The frets felt like a railroad track. After looking at the frets I seen they are SQUARE.

This was my first Gibson and I tought I got a lemon and should send it back. But after searching about that problem in the internet I found out that Gibson ships all guitars with square frets.

I liked the looks and the smell of the guitar very much but I could not adapt to the square frets so after a few months I sold it.

2nd attempt at bass. Still alot room for improvement here but I dont know if I have time to play again.

I'm slowly improving at this:

Just played once through Money on Bass without Riff Repeating before. I have to say the intermediate song is much more challenging on Bass then the masterclass song. On the masterclass song I got 97% on the first run. I played Money on a real Bass (like Wolf&Raven too) and I think that on emulated I could have gotten at least 5% more, since I'm not used to the large fret spacing on the bass.

I don't believe I belong into Masterclass at Bass since I haven't played much Bass before this Championships. But due to the 3x90% or 1x98% rule everyone get's moved into masterclass after a few weeks.

And you still think a telecaster is a beginner's guitar? I'm just so confused.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Telecaster_players

Telecasters are great and versatile guitars. But I had problems with it in this specific song. Since it has only 21 frets and in the solo there are many notes and bends at the 22nd fret I did not manage do get that section purple.

Do yourself a favour and take a few lessons.. a guitar teacher can work with you on your hand position

@ maybe you bend your wrist to much.. tilt the neck upwards a little ..

Small improvement on Lead:

yes semihollow.. flamed maple with a 3 piece maple/mahogany/maple neck

I start to prefer this one over my tele's and strats.. the neck just fits so good in my hand

@@richomat stick to the ibanez anything less than 23 frets is asking for trouble.

All Ibanez Artcore have only 22 frets.

I have the AS 93:

After struggling several times with my tele (which has only 21 frets) I played it once with my Ibanez Artcore and got all sections purple:

huh. I must be playing it WAY too straight then. I'm gonna sit down with the record (and no rocksmith) tonight to have a play with it and try and get it to swing a little more.

Rocksmith has a tolerance on the timing.. so despite the eights are charted straight you can still swing them a little .. but if your shuffling gets to laid back you will start to see "late" and "miss" a lot.. this happened to me on the rhythm track.. but maybe the timing tolerance for chords is smaller..

I will definitely get this.

I allready started charting Roadhouse Blues so I am glad the DLC get's released before I invested to much work into it.

Money is in 7/4 time. It's charted correctly.

Yes it's in 7/4 time but with a shuffle feel:

It's charted with straigth eight notes.

I can't work out how to make the screenshot show in the post properly, but I'm sure someone will explain it to me

You posted the screenshot on mediafire. It seems mediafire does not allow linking directly to content. When you open this URL you get the image but embedded in a lot of mediafire javascript stuff which will not work here in the forum.

 

You can keep it as it is or search in the code of the mediafire page for the real image link:

Score Attack isn't played much, because (you mentioned) the disturbing buzzers.

You can rid of that buzzers by dropping the Sound effects volume in the mixer.
