Thankyou for your help @ Daz40  and @ BubbleWrapDragon  I definitely need to practice more outside of rocksmith!

When I started playing bass I picked it up really quickly and playing it felt like second nature, but I'm struggling with guitar and I feel so awkward when I play.

34 years in and I still struggle with Guitar . But found Bass really easier to get into In the last year..

Advice for Strumming practice (away from RS) @ lowender

Pick a nice sounding full chord get a metronome . Practice down strokes, practice up strokes, practice Alternate up and down  strokes.

Start with quarter notes and go through all sub-divisions 

Then mix the sub-divisions up. 

Work on syncopation  hitting that 1 downbeat harder (really helps) and then change the beat that gets the harder stroke (up or down) 

Hate tuning down but love this bassline .

Bass for Bsb

@ Mikson

I think most find a few tones they like and stick to them like a distortion a clean sound.

I am sure I remember someone saying you can use a pedal to change these also ??

I don't remember this happening when I played it yesterday. Maybe you've warped space-time? 

True. But I'm gonna check with a metronome to make sure

Its not just me right, Common People gets quicker and quicker towards the end of the song??

Better on the rhythm 

So hard this had to slow It down.  I would give this a 6 at the least I suck 

Lets try again In the correct week 

Now to play the correct BSB Song

great!

This week I'm also celebrating my 1000ish hours on Rocksmith 2014!! (Not net net because sometimes I forgot Rocksmith open because of interruption and then I let it open for hours!)
The championship has definitely boosted my hours. I think two years ago, when I started, I was at 500 or something (and I didn't play guitar outside Rocksmith anymore for years)

now to the scores, I started with a nice simple Foo. more will come

PS. I'm also back on working on the score assistant (OCR application) to make it more robust, but it will take a while

Steam Will count every moment RS It open I believe, the game stats only count when you are actually playing.  I  also sometimes leave RS open for days

forgot advanced rhythm wish I had not bothered 

Just going through again without the game pushing me , Some really cool chord changes  

scores so far

Think that be it 

Well that's strange I know we played Karma chameleon A lot a few weeks back, and I got ok scores .  But now Its showing 0% as though It has not even been played . Anyone know why this could be ??

Thank you for the information! Just being able to tab a song completely would be my priority first. I tried a couple of times, but I always ended up choosing songs that were too difficult/time-consuming for a beginner and didn't finish it

I improved with ear training a bit since then and right now I also put my focus on learning to compose. 

Is it a tedious process going from a Guitar Pro transcription to a cdlc? I understand that setting the hand placement/fingering, the viewport, and probably more tasks that need to be done are very important of course, I just wonder how complex it is when the transcription is done already. 

For this week's Taylor Swift song would you say it's more like 5-10 minutes or an hour+ of work for each path starting from the finished transcription? 
 

If the Pro guitar file Is spot on then the process Is getting the beat-grid and bpm right then adding the guitar pro file after and sync It all up .

you can all ways transcribe straight to EOF then you could convert that to a GP file also. good thing with this way Is you dont need to know diddly squat about rhythms
