What do you think of the ATH-MSR7NC? Their rting critical listening scores are almost the same. The MSR7NC are noise canceling. They are $299, but amazon has them on sale for $177. I wanted to stay around $150, but if these might be better, I would drop the extra dough.

Audio46 has a head to head comparison write up, but it is for the non-noise canceling MSR7.

The M50X Bluetooth allows for corded connections. Does this make them still a viable option? The Bluetooth aspect wouldnt be utilized for RS14.

I am just getting started on Rocksmith with a bass guitar. Looking for recommendations for a set of headphones that really lets the bass guitar shine. Not some over amplified, feel in the chest, bass drum thumpers.

Spending maybe an hour looking online the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x's are highly reviewed. Only cost $150. There is also a Blutooth version I could get for casual music listening.But I want something that will make the bass guitar pop on Rocksmith.

Thanx

:D :lol:

Never heard of Bandhub.  Looks pretty cool.  Beats having to go find 3 other "guys" to jam out with.

The future is mobile devices. I just saw this docking station called the DeX (???). Hooks into a monitor, uses the phone as a touch pad, and has several USB's and headphone jacks installed. I know the new phones blow my 9 year old desktop out of the water in computing power. 

Also, could there be a possible Android-iOS compatability in the future?  Just hook the cable into the USB port, wear some headphone, and you can play on a 8"-12" screen making it ultra portable. If they do, they should upgrade to using a USB-C connector. 

I just tried using the CDLC Search feature to find all of the available TOOL songs. A feature I wish was available would be a difficulty score. Something like a 1-5 or 1-10 score. Either have the creators decide the difficulty of the song based on the instrument, or allow the downloaders to weigh in on how hard it was to learn. Or have a letter for the difficulty. "E"asy, "I"ntermediate, "A"dvanced, "M"astery, "G"od level

It would allow beginners to avoid the difficult songs and gravitate to those easier to learn. Or people like me who want to learn a band's entire catalog eventually.  Simply search "TOOL" and then click on a "difficulty" tab. And work my way from the easiest to hardest.

TOOL is why I just bought a bass.

Bass is why I am wait for RS14 for PC to come in.

RS14 for PC is so that I can use Customsforge CDLC's.

Customsforge CDLC's lets me rediscover TOOL.

Thanks man.  

I have a sound bar, but no receiver. I have a Samsung smart tv. Everything hooks up to this hdmi multi port box thing. There are 5 or 6 ports on it.  Nothing actually hooks into each other.  Its like a central router/hub. I think its called the One Connect. 

I just bought a new Dean Custom Zone bass in solid electric green.  I have never played bass before. So I do not know how to shop for strings.  I know I want to get a set of the DR multi-color strings that match Rocksmith's color code.

https://www.drstrings.com/coated-bass-neon-multi-color

The options for the 4 string are the:

NMCB-40 Light (40,60,80,100)

NMCB-45 Medium (45, 65, 85, 105)

Im not looking for which ever one plays the best and creates the best tone.  But which set would register the best on Rocksmith?

Thank you.

If I were to buy a really cheap laptop, what would I need to be able to hook it up to a 4k tv and have it run adequately?

Would Ubi's recommended, not minimum, standards be good enough?

So doing some digging, the graphics card is an ATI Radeon 4200.

Hello

I was on here back in August to ask if my laptop was good enough.  It isn't. Well I finally went and bought the bass that is in my avatar. Now I am asking about my desktop specs.

CPU- AMD Phenom II X4 830 Processor 2.8 GHz

RAM- 8 GB (7.74 usable)

OS- Windows 7 Home Premium

Vid Card- ATI RS880     Internal DAC (400MHz)   3064 MB total memory

Circa- 2009  :unsure:

If I wanted to get a new laptop to specifically use for Rocksmith, the CDLC's, and have the video good enough to put through to the 4k tv as if I was using an Xbox 1, what would be the minimum capabilities I ahould look at getting? How cheap could one run amd still get good enough capabilities?

it's not the spec of your laptop that matters much. It's the TV and sound system and how everything is connected that will define how much latency you get on the video and audio.

I get that. Do you think the laptop specs are good enough to run Rocksmith and all of the programs necessary to upload the CELL's?

Here is the specs page to my laptop. I'm not really tech savvy enough to really know if meets the minimums.

With a few additionnal cable, you could hook up your PC or laptop to your TV and sound system.

 

CDLC are a no on Xbox One because it isn't hacked so we can't add songs on it.

Would using an addition usb 2 HDMI cable for mirror imaging add too much latency to the sign, affecting the gameplay and sound?

I want to learn bass guitar. And I've seen videos in the past with Rocksmith for electric guitar so I tried to see if anyone has used it for bass. As you know, they have. So for the past week or so I have been watch people use Rocksmith to play Tool using bass. That is exactly what I want to do, play Tool and Slipknot on the 4 string. So I decided to Google Rocksmith's song list, and low and behold, absolutely zero songs available for Slipknot or Tool. One thing led to another and that is how I found this website and CDLC's.

My concern is I do not know which path to take. I have an Xbox One hooked up to a 4k TV with a sound bar and sub. A close to 10 year old PC with shitty speakers. And I just got one of those $250 touch screen laptops from Wal-Mart for Christmas. I don't currently have the specs for the pc or laptop until I get home.

The most important thing is to actually play and learn bass. Which I can do on the Xbox. I specifically want to learn Tool and Slipknot, which means using the pc and laptop, I just don't know if I have the specs to do so. Plus, how good will it sound out of crappy Wal-Mart speakers or cheap laptop speakers.

Which would be the best course of action for right now?  A new desktop is a possibility, but that is at least 6-12 months down the road.

Thank you
