Thanks for the swift response; I am not actually charting a song myself but playing other people's CDLC. As a matter of fact, I do have a five string bass and was thus also lead to believe that the song was originally charted for a 5-string bass. I was just irritated that it happened with quite a few of the CDLCs that I had downloaded, since I was given the impression that 5-string basses are more of an oddity. In this case I will probably have no option but to notify the CDLCs' authors.

Hi there, I got a bass guitar last week (since I was having so much fun playing the guitar with Rocksmith, so I had to try the bass mode). I have tried some pieces of CDLC and quite a few of them show the phenomenon that their bass part is off by a whole string (it shows yellow notes, but they should really be played on the E-string of the bass -- otherwise they're just off by a fourth). Is this intentional? Am I missing something totally obvious that I really should have seen? Thanks!

Thanks again, and forgive me for being relentless :), but could I not use EOF to do the editing, save it, take the arrangement's XML file, use the toolkit's XML to SNG converter and then repack? I remember that the toolkit even has an option to update SNGs when packing (but that always failed for me). Mainly, I am trying to understand where (and why) this approach would fail, since it would spare me the work of having to reenter information etc.

Thank you! Assuming I wanted to make the changes by hand, what would that entail? Since you are saying manually, I suppose I could not use the EditorOnFire for that? What other files would I need to update?

I am facing the exact same problem right now; I simply want to move a few notes around. I have unpacked the archive using the tool, imported the relevant track and made my changes. Can I use the packer feature of the Toolkit to reassemble the archive or do I need to use the creator? (I am already assuming the latter, since my attempts with the packer failed. But then I would be curious to know what the packer is used for.) Thank you for any help or advice!
