Great package! Wonderful!

And after watching the "behind the scenes" videos i hope that people stop complaining about the price of the DLCs. They are worth every penny. Such amount of work done for each of them.

Now i wish more jazz for RS. :wub:

I think $5 is more than acceptable for 6 months of work, they sound like a variety of different genres so I can't wait.

[Azrael]

I'm looking forward to some playthrough videos :-)

[Mortalo]

I was waiting for some classic! Bach, Wagner, so cool :D

Can't wait to get my hands on it. Excited :)

Rondo alla Turca is in a gypsy jazz style! It's even better! :D

[Leorstef]

OMG!  Well, the Bass parts are definitely not slack at all.  WOW...

Best I could get was a 92% on "Moonlight Sonata", but it sure wasn't clean.

Other arrangements was kind of an open mouth, staring at the screen, saying "OMG" over and over experience.

 

I think if you can master these musical arrangements, you'll be able to play anything.  :lol:

Great finger exercises and training.

 

Love "Rondo Alla Turca".  Sounds like a Chet Atkins cover to me.

 

I hope we see another pack like this, soon.

I hope that this inspires others to make CDLC of this type as well.

I hope this also inspires others to go into other genres of music.

Jazz for example.

Please.

[Birdassasin]

This pack is freakin' great! I love "Rondo Alla Turca" in this so much!

[imjackscolon]

This is like the coolest dlc of the year for me man! I'll throw my money at them, again.

[Attitude]

I just watched the first two videos,, yep,, I'm buying it. Without a doubt.

Oh, just you wait...

[Rockinbiscuit]

Love the classical stuff, I can see this pack being quite popular and even bring a few more in to liking classical music.... even if only played on the guitar.

Just played them all through on bass. On first play, best score 95.7 on Moonlight Sonata; worst, 75.7 on Fugue in G minor.

 

They're all amazing -- if you haven't bought them yet, for chissakes, go buy them!!!!!!!

 

I like the Django/swing take on Rondo. If I had my druthers, the others wouldn't be quite so "metallized," but I'm not complaining. They've got enough bitching from people who are like, "Classical?! What, are you kidding?! This pack sucks! Metallica rules, WHOO!!" (Look, pal, if you can play this stuff, you can play ANYTHING! And this stuff -- excepting Moonlight and Rondo -- is metal as hell, anyway!)

 

The guitar parts sound absolutely beastly. Usually I start out at 100% and see how it goes, but after hearing those guitar parts I'll start out at 40-50% or I'll just get depressed. On second thought, maybe around 20-30%. Seriously, they sound... challenging.

 

Edit: *Do* buy these and show RS some love for the pack on their Facebook page. Feel free to mock the classical haters while you're there, too.

Next stop, Segovia pack!!!

[Attitude]

Love the idea :)

Thou need to wait winter sales for dlc as short in money :(

It's $5 for all five songs. They are the bachsmith pack. I doubt it will be much cheaper.

In the summer sale the dlc's only went to 25% off for both Rocksmith and Rocksmith 2014, so I imagine they will be the same in the winter sale. Not much of a saving, but still a saving :)

 

....but for this pack, I'm not sure I'll be able to hold off ;)

I would have preferred this arrangement for the Grieg tune.

Ok i need help.. First time i bought a dlc for rocksmith, i downloaded them, but i can't see them in the "learn a song" section.. I kinda tried everything, can someone help me plz ?

[zanzibarnights]

Maybe you should buy Rocksmith 2014 also

[renar]

I have bought rocksmith 2014 eh :) i have like 500 hours or something like that on this game, best money every spent :P I just always used cdlc and never took normal dlc

[firekorn]

You shouldn't have to do anything Steam download automatically the dlc and they should appear right after in RS2014, if you are running RS while steam is downloading the DLC steam will pause the DL to free the internet connexion and even if steam continue to download you will need to enumerate again in RS so that he see that there's new DLC in the dlc folder.

[renar]

Boh i've checked the dlc folder, and the files are there, they just don't work, dunno why.. 

[Wepeel]

Have you tried restarting?  Sometimes that helps.

[piepesado]

Bachsmith is awesome, quite a challenge, also for 5 bucks its money well spent. I hope they release a Bachsmith 2.

 

I had issues installig this dlc, somehow it didnt download it after purchase, I had to manually get it installed going to the dlc tab on steam.

[msarro]

I'm a classical fingerstylist - I really, REALLY wish they hadn't "rock"ed these up.
