  1. If you just want to change the tuning to A440, I think that is quite easy. You might sound slightly off when playing, but as long as you are OK with that... Quick guide: Copy the file "dreamon_p.psarc" from your DLC folder to a new, easy to find folder. Run the Rocksmith Toolkit (hopefully at least semi-recently updated). On the main tab, click "Import Package", and find the new folder you made with the .psarc file in it. Open that file. It will ask you where you want to put artifacts. Go to/select the same folder you made, and click "Select Folder". That should load all of the song info into that tab. Underneath "Song Information", it should say "DreamOn" "Dream On" "Dream On", etc. In the "Arrangements" section, click on each guitar/bass arrangement and then click on "Edit". In the window that comes up, leave everything the same but change the Tuning Pitch to 440 (it may have defaulted to that already) and click OK. Repeat for bass, lead, and rhythm arrangements. Now, you have a choice to make. If you want, you can REPLACE the official version of the DLC in A444 with this one. Or, you can have this one in your DLC folder with that one at the same time, so you can select either one in the song list. If you want to have both versions in the song list, you will need to change the song ID. It is the first field under "Song Information". Right now it says "DreamOn", no space. I'd change it to "DreamOn440", but the main thing is that it should be different. It will also help to change the song title so you can tell the 2 versions apart. That is the second field, currently showing "Dream On". Change it to "Dream On A440" or something so you know that this is the version with changed tuning. The 3rd field is also "Dream On", but it is just for the sort order of the song in the list (so you can leave a 'the' out of sorting, or whatever). You can leave it as "Dream On". If you want to fully replace the official DLC version in A444, you don't need to do any of that stuff about changing the Song Information fields -- just go to the next step. Assuming you're on PC, make sure that only the PC checkbox is ticked at the top of the window, then click on "Generate" in the bottom right. The filename it sets should automatically be different than the original "dreamon_p.psarc", which is a good thing -- if it happens to come up as exactly that, change it, but it should be different. Once the filename is OK (default should be fine), click OK. It will ding and tell you that the file is done. You can click OK to open the folder where it generated the file. Take that file and copy/move it into your DLC folder. If you want it to replace the official DLC in A444, remove the "dreamon_p.psarc" file from your DLC folder (although I'd keep a backup in case you change your mind or something goes wrong). If you want them both to be available, you can leave it in there and it should be fine, assuming you changed the fields as mentioned above. That should do it! --EDIT-- Following my own steps worked, but not at first. When I first tried, even with both files in my DLC folder only the original in A444 was showing up in the song list. Changing the songID should fix that, I dunno how I screwed that up. Moving the original DLC file out let me play the one in A440, but that isn't ideal. I think to force the toolkit to update the SongID, you could either do something with the arrangements (maybe add a new arrangement from another XML file, and then remove it?) or use the toolkit to unpack/repack. Sorry for the complication added there...
  2. Just tested it out on an official DLC song. Works fine. I figured that this is useful enough that I should make a new post with a more thorough guide. Information above in my previous post is mostly correct, but this is more complete: http://customsforge.com/topic/16665-guide-to-converting-down-tuned-songs-into-b-standard-for-a-5-string-bass/
  3. Recently I've been messing with converting/transcribing songs in tunings like Eb Drop Db, Drop C, etc. into B Standard (technically BEAD) so I can play them on my 5 string bass without adjusting the tuning on my 4. I've done it to several songs now, both customs and official DLC, and I can usually come up with a version that is fully playable on my 5 string in B Standard -- no retuning required. Of course this only applies to songs that don't go below a B1. If anyone is interested, here's a step by step guide on how to do it. Note that this is really long (sorry), but once you get used to it, it can actually be done very quickly -- 5 minutes per song or so: 1. Copy the .psarc file for the song you want to edit into a folder. I use one on my desktop to make it easy, but whatever works. 2. Inside that same folder, make 2 subfolders. Name them "1 Unpack" and "2 Import". 3. Open up the Toolkit. Go to the unpacker tab. Check the boxes for "Decode Audio" and "SNG to XML" so they are both checked. 4. Click "Unpack". The first window that pops up wants you to select a .psarc to unpack. Open the first folder you created, and click on the copy of the song you put in there. The second window that pops up wants to know where it should unpack to. Open up the folder you made named "1 Unpack" and click to select that folder. 5. Open EOF. Click File -> New. Open up the first folder you made, then "1 Unpack", then it should have something like songname_p_Pc. Open that, then audio, then windows. The path will look something like: EditFolder\1 Unpack\song_p_Pc\audio\windows\ 6. There should be 4 audio files in there, 2 in wem and 2 in ogg format. They have very unhelpful names -- just a string of numbers. Basically, you want the #######_fixed.ogg file that is larger by filesize (the smaller one is the preview audio). Might have to view by details in the EOF open window to figure that out. Anyway, select the larger .ogg to open with EOF. When it opens, you can fill in the artist and song title, but I don't think it really matters much. 7. EOF should have loaded up the ogg. Press F5 to get a waveform chart and check it. You can play the song, fast forward a bit to make sure you didn't end up with the preview audio by mistake, etc. Make sure you're in the bass track in EOF by clicking Song->Track->PART REAL_BASS. 8. At this point, you want to import/load the bass arrangement. So, click File->Rocksmith Import. In the open window, it will probably start out in your first new folder. You want to navigate to song_p_PC\songs\arr\. 9. In that subfolder, you should see xml files for all the arrangements, vocals, showlights, etc. We want song_bass.xml, so select that one. 10. You should now see some notes on the waveform display. If you don't, it may be because you imported an arrangement with difficulty levels, and you're only seeing the lowest difficulty level, so just a note every measure or 2. So, click on the *1 to *## tabs/buttons on top until it looks like you've got max difficulty, with all the notes displayed. 11. EOF likes to be weird for me, and think that I've imported an arrangement for a 6-string instrument instead of a 4-string bass. To fix that, click Track->Pro Guitar->Set number of frets/strings, and change the number of strings to 4. 12. Now we're ready to do the actual transcribing. Click on Track->Pro Guitar->Set Tuning. The offsets it starts off with will vary based on the original tuning of the song (Eb Drop Db, Drop C, or whatever). But to shoehorn it into B Standard on a 5-string, we just want -5 for all 4 boxes -- should read with String 1 as D to String 4 as B, or BEAD tuning. Click OK. EOF will say that notes will be affected by the tuning change and ask if you want to transpose. Click Yes. 13. The arrangement should now be in BEAD, and we're pretty close to being done with EOF. However, the automatic transposing might leave some things to be desired, like a note on the first fret of B followed by a note on the 8th fret of E and then quickly back, etc. So, it is probably a good idea to scan through the song and see if anything glaring like that jumps out at you. For that specific example, I'd click on the note at the 8th fret of E and press n to modify it. I'd transpose it to 3rd fret of A so the frethand position is easier in the range of 1-4 instead of requiring a quick shift from 1 to 8. Any chords will almost certainly be screwed up, and there may or may not be any good way to fix them -- some songs won't transcribe like this very well while others will be dead easy. 14. Once you've taken care of those things (or decided that you don't want to mess with it), you will need to clear and regenerate the frethand position guides, which will be incorrect for the new tuning. Click on Track->Rocksmith->Fret Hand positions->Delete effective to clear them out, and then Track->Rocksmith->Fret Hand positions->Generate all diffs to have EOF redo them for the new tuning. 15. We're (probably) done with EOF, so File->Save. You might get warnings or error messages (reset offset to zero, that kind of thing), but any warnings should be pretty safe to ignore -- you'll have to use your judgement. 16. Go back to the Toolkit. There is probably a good way to "repack" the file that you unpacked, but I find it easier to do like this: In the Creator tab, click on "Import Package" at the bottom. Go back to the root/first folder you made, and click on the .psarc you put in there again. The toolkit will ask where to put stuff, select the OTHER folder that you made in step 2, named "2 Import". That should finish up and populate all of the fields in the Creator tab for you with song info, arrangements, audio files, etc. 17. There are 3 main things to change. First, I'd change the DLC Name field (top-left of the section under Song Information) by just adding something to it. Something like change "NirvanaSmellsLike" to "NirvanaSmellsLikeBassB", or append your name, or whatever. The reason for this is that it makes sure that your edited version in B Standard and the original version won't conflict if you have them both in your DLC folder, which could cause weirdness. 18. Continuing with that, I'd suggest changing the Song Title field in a similar way. Instead of "Smells Like Teen Spirit", "Smells Like Teen Spirit Bass B" or "Smells Like Teen Spirit 5Bass" or whatever. That way you know which one is which if you have both in your DLC folder. The Song Title Sort field can stay the same, doesn't matter. 19. Most important is using the altered arrangement you made in EOF. So, click on the bass arrangement in the arrangements list and "Remove" it. Then click on "Add", then "Browse" in the window that pops up, and navigate to Folder\1 Unpack\. You should see a file Bass_RS2.xml in there -- select it and open. The toolkit should automatically note that the tuning will require the bass tuning fix -- say that yes, you want it to apply the fix. If it doesn't do that, you may have to apply the fix with the toolkit later if the song doesn't let you tune to BEAD in the game. 20. The rest of the arrangement information should get filled in automatically, but check the tone etc. (you can use the original tone since you imported the song) to make sure it looks good. It should probably say it is in B Standard or "Something Funky" A220 for the tuning, again if that didn't work right you might have to apply the fix with the toolkit later. 21. Alternatively, you can Add the arrangement in B Standard the same way, but check the box for it to be added as a "Bonus Arrangement". With that method, you can probably save over the original .psarc (keep a backup) and leave the song ID, title, etc. the same. Get to the B Standard version by selecting Bonus Bass in Rocksmith. BUT, note that Bonus Arrangements won't let you play in Score Attack. 22. With the arrangement done, click the button to Generate. Probably a good idea to add something like "_Bass_in_B" or "_5String_"before the version number of the filename, especially if you plan to have both files in your DLC folder. 23. Put that sucker in your DLC folder and test it out. If you can't tune to B, it means the tuning fix didn't get applied. Fix that in the unpacker tab of the toolkit. If you play an open B on your 5 string and the game thinks it is an octave high, the tuning fix got applied twice (that happened to me once). You'll have to check the arrangement details and go back some steps. If you play it through and discover some wicked stretches or shifts have been introduced by the tuning change, you may or may not be able to satisfactorily do something about those with careful transcribing back in EOF. I've just done this for about 10 songs, and after the first few it actually goes really fast. Hope that helps out other people with a 5 String bass and are lazy about tuning into stuff like Drop C, like me.
  4. Isn't that against the Geneva Convention, or something? :P
  5. I've done some work recently with converting customs that are in down tunings into B Standard so I can play them on my 5 string without having to retune my 4 to stuff like D Drop C, etc. A lot of bass arrangements work fine to play in B Standard instead of stuff like Eb Drop Db, Drop C, D Standard, etc. because they focus on playing root notes on that low string, and have little if any notes actually up on the G. So basically, if you have the psarc, it is quite easy to load it up in the toolkit, unpack (decode audio and sng to xml both checked), then open the audio file for the song (not the preview) in EOF (might have to convert it to MP3 first? I forget. You can use the wem files when you pack it back up again, so don't trash them) and then import the bass arrangement. in EOF, change the tuning to BEAD instead of whatever it was, and it will ask if you want to auto transcribe. You do -- let it adjust the notes to match pitch. From there, you can tweak if you think it would make more sense to move notes from high frets on B down to a more sensible location on E, etc. But depending on the song, that might be completely unnecessary. Save. At that point, you can import the song from the original psarc again in the toolkit (probably choose a different directory than where you unpacked to just in case it overwrites stuff). Delete or edit the bass arrangement, and replace it with the xml from where you unpacked and retuned. Or, you can add it as a bonus bass arrangement and leave the original intact -- but keep in mind that you can't play bonus arrangements in Score Attack. Generate the psarc, and then go back to the packer tab and "Fix Low Bass Tuning" so that the game will let you tune the B. Or, if you followed some of the steps in the manual low tuning fix, you might not have to do that... But it is easier to just keep everything as B Standard A440 and then let the toolkit do it automagically. Probably a good idea to keep both files just in case, and test to make sure that you can tune in game. About a song that isn't in A440, I think it should work pretty much the same way. BUT, you might have to do the bass fix manually -- not sure. If it was A444, you'd want to set it to A222, I believe. Not sure if the automatic tuning fix is clever about that. ...I'm not an admin or affiliated with the CustomsForge brass in any way, but for my 2 cents, following those steps and getting yourself an edited custom (or official DLC song that you own) for your own use should be fine. I've done it myself with several customs already, but haven't tried with any official DLC songs. Should work the same though.
  6. Back to MC Bass: 100 seems doable, but I'm not really digging the song (it's OK but less fun for me personally than Metric and Satch this week) so I don't think I'll push.
  7. That is right around my first shot at the MC song. Lostsa practice and I have plateaued at 96%. I'd welcome you back down with us plebs in Advanced... Pleb me up! I'm no where near the elites standard of playing, not even near the advanced elites standard!... getting 1 song out of 50 in the MC an MC one does not make :( It's just making me pissed off. The only rank I have is in advanced is 1 and I'm not allowed to score in there because I'm too good (allegedly, I see no evidence though) I am above someone in that advanced list... who doesn't play. /sign petition Let Noony compete in Advanced, and hopefully the new approach on assigning difficulty ratings will let us keep that threshold better maintained so that everyone who moves up to MC 1) wants to, and 2) is ready for it. I feel your pain Noony, it is a source of great personal shame that my score on the leaderboard is a whole 4 points for MC Bass but 20 for Beginner Lead... Actually, I don't lose sleep over it or anything, but it is weird to be doing "better" in a guitar class than bass. <_<
  8. Feeling a bit better today, so I thought I should keep up with the beginner lead: OK, I'm sure this is mostly due to my actual skill being on bass, not guitar, but... For those that play both does the detection on guitar, particularly chords, seem much more hit or miss than single note and double stop stuff more common on bass? When I'm playing bass, I feel like the detection is spot on pitch-wise (not necessarily timing wise) the great majority of the time. If Rocksmith says I miss a note, it is really because I missed it, or at least muffed/fumbled it. On guitar though, even with simple stuff like power chords, I can play a song to what feels/sounds to me like the exact same accuracy 3 times in a row, and get vastly different accuracy ratings. I think that a big big portion of that must be that I'm just not very good at chords. I probably hit notes that are supposed to be muted, and fat-fingers mute or partially mute stuff that is supposed to ring out, etc. But in this song (and others like it), with long stretches of the same 3-note power chord just being strummed repeatedly, I get lots of what seem like random misses in the middle of a stretch. Doesn't feel like my positioning has changed at all, it just decides that some hit and some don't. Again, I think that if I developed my skill to where I'm playing stuff and fretting chords more cleanly (but if I have this kind of problem with power chords, you can imagine that anything with REAL chords is going to really kick my ass) it would be better, but it just feels like even with a real pro kind of player, the detection is maybe going to plateau a bit short of how well it handles bass detection. Agree/disagree?
  9. Ugh, came down sick today. But I lurched out of bed long enough to get bass scores. I'll combine with difficulty thoughts (won't expand on them though) since I'm under the weather. I'll justify them later. Beginner My Difficulty Rating: 2 Intermediate My Difficulty Rating: 3 (Just the one try on this one, can't remember too well, so may edit) Advanced My Difficulty Rating: 3 (My chart) or 2 (original) MC My Difficulty Rating: 6-7? (Again, just played once so far and I'm fuzzy on remembering. So probably should be adjusted, but I got almost 98% on a first try after never having even heard the song so I think that is probably fair ballpark.)
  10. Thanks much -- that helped me get it done and now displaying properly! Learning all kinds of stuff today. :)
  11. Slide down from 12 on E, or the slides from 2 to 4 on D? The slide down from 12 is charted as 12 to 1. It should just be a general "slide quickly all the way down", but I don't know how to do that. If I set it as 12 to 0, EOF complains at me, and I can't figure out what "unpitched slide" is or how to get it to work. If anyone can set me straight I'll fix that.
  12. Quick song thoughts: I've enjoyed the other Metric songs we've done for the Championship, but not enough to really get hooked. This week's selection by them is awesome though -- I really like it! Probably a 1-2 for difficulty on bass, but still really good tune and fun. Cryin' (really any Joe Satriani) is always good too, and it has a nice audible bass part so another good choice. Will be fun to see advanced (rather shocked it isn't MC lead) guitar dudes chew on it, and I might have to try it also to teach myself some more humility... The Coheed and Cambria song is a good one too. I agree with @@missis sumner about it being the hardest of these 3 on bass, although it is pretty close. I think I'd go Metric<Satch<C&C for bass difficulty. The Postcard song isn't too tough on bass, but clearly the hardest. I think it is my least favorite sounding-wise this week, but I'd better play it a few more times -- maybe it will grow on me. I'll post more thorough difficulty ratings tomorrow, time for me to head to bed I think.
  13. I'm done with the completely redone bass arrangement for Cryin': https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2GRHIrNcVrSZ25mVVdHRzB1d3M/view?usp=sharing Couple of notes: * I'm really happy with how it came out, and 99% confident in all of the chart alterations I did to the source tab I used. I almost never try to fix a tab, but I could really hear this one, play it out, and be confident in my ear when I heard things differently than the tab. So that was a good experience for me! * At the end of the intro, there is 1 chord/double stop in my edited chart. It is a C# (4th fret on A) and an octave above. I'm sure that the root note is correct, but my ear is telling me that the other note should actually be an octave LOWER... Which would require a 5 string. I'm 90% sure it is a double stop / chord, and 60% sure that it should be a C#1 instead of a C#3, or some other note. But I thought that since it is just 1 note, I'd chart it as an octave high rather than requiring a 5 string. Anyone with a more practiced ear want to confirm / deny / set me straight? Or if it would be preferred, I can just drop the double stop and keep it as single root C#2. * The sync isn't 100% perfect in a couple spots near the end of the song. The chart was off quite a bit there, so it took some work to adjust in EOF, and using 2 different systems to adjust things (EOF vs Go Playalong) made me a bit inconsistent. But, it is WAY better than before, only off by tiny bits in 1 or 2 spots. * With my chart alterations, the song gets (slightly) harder. There's some slides and a bit quicker fingerwork required. It still isn't hard. I'd give it a 3. Please give feedback if you're interested. And if anyone wants, it would be quite easy to make a hybrid file with the original custom author (Bilkqwando)'s lead arrangement and this bass arrangement. The guitar pro tab I sourced from also has a rhythm part I could try to get synced in if any rhythm dudes want, since I guess that is missing from the custom? OK, time to get around to trying all the songs and posting difficulty ratings!
  14. Here's the first go at Cryin' bass redo. All from scratch, using the tab I linked to before plus syncing with Go Playalong (recommended to all Magna Charters -- sync up the song with GPA gui, and then export from the library view, followed by import->Guitar Pro in EOF and select the .xml file generated by Go Playalong). https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2GRHIrNcVrSVHRjbUM5VzFfYWc/view?usp=sharing I've got the evening free, so I will work on using EOF to make the chart changes that I can hear, do a better job of manually dividing into sections, and upload a better version in a bit. But if anyone wants to preview, try that link. --EDIT-- Forgot to mention, it will happily sit in your DLC folder with the original version of the song. The song title is something like Cryin' BASS MMD so you can distinguish.
  15. I've got a working proof of concept on a redo of the Cryin' bass arrangement. And I learned something in the process -- how to beatmap/sync with Go Playalong instead of by hand in EOF. EOF allows for a bit more extreme precision, but GPA is sooooo much easier. Anyway, it works and is in much better sync than the original, although if I import the guitar tracks into the same beatmap they go all wonky. The tab that I found is mostly correct, but I've got a piece of scratch paper with about 20 alterations that I heard. So, in a couple hours (got a tutoring class now) I will upload the prelim. file and then work on making the chart changes I have written down. I'm thinking I'll do that as a separate CDLC file that will have the bass part ONLY for now. If I get good feedback I'll see about merging it in here for the Championship and contact the original CDLC author.
  16. Regarding Cryin': I decided to start from scratch rather than editing, so I got a guitar pro tab for the song: http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/j/joe_satriani/cryin_guitar_pro.htm and my own ripped MP3. I haven't checked to be sure, but I bet the version that was already done used that same tab, because it feels very weird when imported into EOF. I think the measures or rests or something are off, because just doing a quick setup of the beatmap with metronome turned on can get it locked in... And then upon importing the guitar and bass parts, the intro rhythm guitar and lead part match up great while the bass is funky. So, I think that rather than starting from scratch and reinventing the wheel, it will be easier and better to unpack and edit the existing custom. I think I can get around the weird source tab by turning on snap (I believe the beatmap is done properly for the song, at least for the guitar parts, but I'll make sure) and shifting the notes around to hit on the beat or to the nearest eighth or sixteenth if necessary. I think the tab also misses some fairly easy nuances that I should be able to tab out by ear. Hopefully. --EDIT-- Just checked, and the existing custom does NOT use that tab. I think in the tab up there ^^^ that the bass arrangement at least is more accurate in terms of the nuances, dunno about guitar. Still leaves me with the issue of it being weird to sync... But maybe worth doing. Busy for the next few hours today, but I'll take a look again tonight and see if that is as workable as I hope it will be!
  17. I'm a big Satriani fan, so I think I've downloaded every custom here of his songs that has a bass arrangement. So I'm pretty sure I've played this before, and if I am remembering correctly, I definitely noticed the sync issues also. I've got a pretty open schedule for the next 2 days at least, so I will do by best to see if I can fix it up. No guarantees, might end up being like Space Truckin' last week where I ended up much busier than I was expecting and don't get the time -- but I think I can manage. I'll take a look at it ASAP.
  18. Sweet 100%, and especially with fingers! I somehow go stupid mode when I try fingers on anything remotely fast, to the point that even my normally solid frethand goes to crap too. Nice work!
  19. Don't think I'm going to have time to get around to redoing or resyncing Space Truckin'... Sorry. Doing tests this week at the school where I teach, and didn't have as much free time as I was expecting. I did have time to give playing it another shot today: EXACT same accuracy as yesterday, but much higher score at least. So, barring finding some spare time to give it several more shots, I think I'm stuck in 5th place (at best) again. :)
  20. Had to try Space Truckin' again. I think the bad sync is throwing me off, so I played with the song volume on mute because I figured that would force myself to watch the onscreen notes for timing. That helped, kinda. I beat my personal best accuracy (hit 98.4), but not enough to move up the leaderboard at all so I won't post a screenshot unless I can't manage any better later in the week. Even with no song volume, I keep getting into a groove with myself, which isn't the groove of the chart/sync. Frustrating. Think I'm going to look into doing the bass part from scratch from a Guitar Pro tab.
  21. The timing on Space Truckin' is annoying me enough that I'm actually having more fun with pushing up my accuracy on beginner lead: Riff Repeater on the solo helped. I had a run in LAS where I hit every note in the solo up to the point that it goes off of my fretboard at full speed... Didn't manage that in Score Attack, but it is pretty fun anyway!
  22. @@Nacholede Here's the bass arrangement xml for BEAD: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2GRHIrNcVrSNDAxZDdQam9LalE/view?usp=sharing Have to set the tuning option for the arrangement to A220 in the toolkit. I've been using the auto bass tuning fix since it became available, but when I tried that on this one it didn't work right, probably because your standard procedure goes the manual way? Manually setting to A220 should work fine though. I really liked the idea of having it as a bonus arrangement, I just wasn't aware that bonus arrangements weren't available in Score Attack. So, maybe having both tunings available as separate dlc files would be better -- up to you.
  23. I'm getting worse at Space Truckin', so I'll try again later. In the meantime, might as well foray into Beginner Lead again since I'm enjoying the song: My kind of lead song -- power chords throughout, and a solo that isn't too nuts. The beginning with hammering up from 7 to 9 to 11 on the high e is fun, handled that pretty OK. The rest will take some RR, although I might be screwed on the end of it because my fretboard doesn't go up to 24. I guess an Explorer tends to be more of a "rhythm" guitar shape, so mine only goes up to 22. Plus I couldn't bend from there even if it did go up to 24...
  24. Kept having more problems with this than I should have: But even though I'm not really a Good Charlotte kind of guy, I must admit I like the song. Now with those 2 100's out of the way, time to concentrate on Space Truckin'. I realized that my version of Juular with B Standard in the bonus bass is less than ideal because I don't think you can play a bonus arrangement in Score Attack?
  25. Easy fix to convert the bass part of Juular to B Standard (for a 5 string) instead of Open B. I did it as the Bonus Bass arrangement, so nothing destructive done to the original Open B variant as the default bass arrangement. Here's a first try with that change: I was worried about the frethand positioning being screwy, but honestly I think it works out great. No funky stretches or anything, everything is played on B and E strings. Anyone with a 5 string, or a 4 that handles BEAD better than Open B, is welcome to try it out (again, note that the B Standard version is in BONUS BASS): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2GRHIrNcVrSSS1zR1prVUpZR0E/view?usp=sharing (Hope I'm not stepping on any toes @@Nacholede -- I can take it down if you prefer, PM or shout at me here) Also, I will leave it to @@Mortalo 's discretion to decide if a version altered in this way should be allowed to count for championship entry score purposes. Same number of notes and everything; the actual difference is pretty small -- all the notes in the original were on the lowest 2 strings (B and F#), so the chart is should be identical except for everything that was on the F# string is fretted 2 spaces higher to compensate for it being E instead of F#. All that was done automatically in EOF, so it should be identical -- just transcribed. It sounded like it did that correctly in my quick test, but my daughter is asleep next to me here so I had the volume low and it is possible I missed something.
