lower tunings are possible as your already starting with b so easier to tune without spaghetti strings.

the game doesn't actually end just minimises. I'll try the task manager next time to see if anything is trying to run. I dont think it's a memory problem, I'm running 8 Gb ram. The annoyance is nothing is on the screen when it happens, no notice for updates or anything.

Does anybody know of a reason why my game randomly jumps out to the desktop, cant see any notifications for emails etc just seems to jump to the desktop as if I'd alt tabbed. Any help/fixes appreciated.

I'm not hugely experienced with different basses but I am loving my schecter diamond 5 string, its a heavy beast but the tone is excellent and the neck just feels right, it plays well with rocksmith and I'm starting to tab out 5 dtring tracks for RS to get the best use of it. My 4 string experience has seen a fender p-bass and an ibanez sr500, the pbass went a while back in favour of the ibanez which plays brilliantly and is really light compared to the fender, with a slim neck and profile, if the worst happened and I had to replace them I would definately but the same again

Does anybody have a tutorial for using the guitar hero multi-tracks for conversion to Rocksmith?

I've done a 5 string chart and just put it in the description in large red letters that a 5 string is required.

Line 6 spider 3 75watt, currently looking for a decent bass amp.

dying to hear iron maiden on a trombone lol, I can imagine some weird multiplayer videos appearing here soon.

anytime :cool: , check out the thread that tells you how to make a five string bass track work in the game, if this one was anything to go by I look forward to some more of your bass tracks :-P

okay played it through using my 5 string and it played through great, nice tone, good volume, not familiar with slipknot so only achieved 85% but it all seemed good, recognised all the notes no problem.

also thats a bloody big file for a cdlc ????

are you just needing it tested for a 4 string or five string ( i have both but if you let me know which )

hmm wont run on my pc. :-|

keep an eye on the speakers when playing a custom, if you dont see the sound waves coming out the game is going to need re-booted to get your tones back.

I've started to try out some bass tones and got a couple saved that sound quite good but cant find the bloody folder outside of the game to upload them

can you do some Haken if you get a chance

look forward to it, paid extra for the extra string so really want to use it lol.

I've noticed a lot of 5 string tabs rarely use the 5 strings, they seem to just use bottom 3 mostly.

Thanks, I saw your video. Are there any charted 5-string bass songs available that are charted like yours above that I can try out just to see how bad I will fail :( ? not sure if anybody else is trying to actually tab out five strings onto guitar tracks just yet other that myself and firekorn, hopefully as the knowledge gets passed around more people will try it, and as for sucking the track i done kicks my ass, I would do a vid but not until i get a bit better at it lol probably because i don't actually know the song and that tapping section totally threw me. I just grabbed the first 5 string tab file I found on songster and quickly knocked it up in EoF. next one will be better......promise.

http://www.mediafire.com/download/qsgvad17ta0qx33/Disturbed_Monster_v1_p.psarc this is a quick test track i did to try out the theory for a five string bass. It's not synced and just grabbed a random tone for it. to play it you must use a five string bass. look in the guitar track for the bonus lead track and when tuning fret the first string around the 8th or 9th fret with a little pressure to get the tuner to pass. Picked a bad track really as it requires some tapping techniques at one point, or incredibly fast fretting hands.

I can upload the test file i did if you wish, it's not correctly synced and the tone is awful but it shows that 5 strings can be used.

i dont understand where you see the problem.... think of it as playing a guitar track but you'll never have to hit the high e string. Everything looks just the same as playing a guitar track, except the 5 string (or possibly six string) will be charted as a bonus guitar track. the only difficulty (not thats it difficult) is the tuning page where you need to play a few frets up the g string to trick RS into believing there are six strings.

Ive actually charted a song using five string tabs and played it on my five string bass, I can see the notes to play as if i was playing a guitar but hearing and registering the bass notes correctly, the 220 thing works it just takes a bit of playing around in the charting and creation stage.

Okay I've managed to do a 5 string bass custom using this format. found a 5 string gp3 file and inported it into eof as a guitar track (it did actually show in eof as 5 strings) produced the custom as normal and the the sound file. open it in rs toolkit and pretty much generated it as normal with the exception of changing the tuning pitch as above. one thing that confused me was the tuning box came up showing 6 strings tune beadge (i think) i just clicked on this and generated the file (as a normal track as there were no other tracks to play) loaded it up as normal and started the song. took me through tuning as per normal with the exception of the g string which needed fretted at around the 7th fret not 5th dont know why. played the song (badly) but the notes were recognised and played, however the 5 string seems very quiet in the game may need to mess around with it a bit in the tone, try a lot of compression or something. But it does work :-P
