Note detection was being a pain. I might try to hook up though an audio interface in the future if that is any better.

I might take a few more tries at this one.

Try using the rstotab built into rstoolkit instead of the standalone app, worked fine for me

Awesome, thanks! I figured out how to do it on rstoolkit. And to think that was on my computer the whole time.

I used the RocksmithToTab program to try and get a tab for the Asian Hooker lead. When I ran the program it made tabs for most of the songs I have in my library but some of them it did not. I even copied the .psarc file and put it in another folder to try and convert from there. I got a message that said "could not find songs.psarc files in the Rocksmith folder." 

Any suggestions?

How fitting that the tuning shows up in the title as "Asian Hooker-e-STD" 

LOL

Snarky Puppy, groovy chill songs for sure. Larnell Lewis is a master on the drums as well.

Classic

Wow, this is a fun band. They have a lot of cool clay-animation music videos too.

Catchy tune. Not difficult but some different chord shapes that I'm not used to playing at first glance. I felt using the same 5 power chords for "Rock You Like a Hurricane" was easier. Probably because I already knew how to play it.

A little bit better..

I saw Thunderkiss '65 and figured I would join the party.

@Wi11 - cannot regret that decision! Let us hear some of that stuff please!

I see there is a way to transfer songs with the micro SD card/Trio software but it's probably easier to just record some noodling with my phone for now lol. I'll see what I can do!

I couldn't pass up playing this album. My teenage self would have been highly disappointed in me. 

Also, my wallet is quite a bit lighter thanks to @Rodman  After seeing his Trio+ and watching videos on this pedal for months I finally broke down and bought one. It's so much fun! And to think, I wouldn't even know this pedal existed if it wasn't for this forum.

Groovy song. I dig it.

Oh the feels...  It's like I'm in high school again, driving around in my crappy truck listening to AJFA on my tape deck. 

Hey, it's snowing in here! That's pretty cool  It's been a few weeks since I've played RS and it felt good! 

For some reason it seems like my PC has been lagging super bad, including Rocksmith (which it never used to do), ever since my last Windows update. Randomly my computer will stumble over itself for a good 30-60 seconds. On Rocksmith it's usually after I finish a song or when I'm on a main menu. If anyone has any suggestions that would be great.

Merry Christmas!

I fell off the wagon again. No scores here.  Christmas week will be a different story

get this: even after all these years, i still don't have a bass

I took an unplanned trip out of town Friday so I have no scores to post. That's what happens when you put things off until the end of the week!

Friday night results... I scored a 97.74 but forgot to hit the f12 button. Turns out I got the same score on the next try.

Your images don't show for some reason. At least for me they don't.

I almost considered this a bye week due to the holiday but I got some plays in before the deadline. Maybe I'll get some lead and rhythm in depending on time.

I almost forgot to mention how superbly funky this song was. Epico! 

I bumped myself up to MC Rhythm.  This jam has got me all funked up.

This was stuck in my head all week. I like it!

I find that you need to pull off the tapped note distinctively, the rest can be played legato. I do not think active pickups would make a difference, I have passive ones too.

Thanks Anwyn. I'll give that a try.

As long as you have calibrated your rocksmith and your pickups aren't super low output to begin with, you should be able to get decent note recognition for tapping. The most important thing to notice is how cleanly yout tap the note and do the follow ups with pull offs and hammer ons. If your muting and/or fingering technique is poor, you will easily get accidentals from other strings and even sympathic harmonies from open strings, if you don't cover them while tapping. The accidentals and feedbacks are only more and more audible with active pickups.

The best thing you can do is play with a distorted amp (preferrably outside of rocksmith, due to its noise gate) to see how clean your single string tapping and legato techniques really are. if you are constantly in a situation where your signal distorts heavily, then it means you are doing a poor job muting the strings. If you don't have access to a dirty amp, then tone designer from rocksmith is your friend.

I'll try recalibrating and see how it goes. I feel like my tapping is decent enough to where there shouldn't be 20+ misses, even at slower speeds, but that is a good point and another thing for me to check out. Thanks meelo.

I can play the solo without errors... in RR at 60%.

 

Any tips for note recognition during the tapping? I'm hitting the notes but it seems like there is a lot more missed notes than there should be. Maybe I need to tap and pull off harder. Maybe active pick ups would work better. Or maybe I'm not playing it as well as I think I am, lol.

Busy week. Got some Saturday morning tries in. 

No scores yet, but I got some new threads in the mail!
