I think you should move the link to the discussion directly above or below the song choices so everyone definitely sees it. Gonna be a hard one for me this week, bloody hate Blink 182 but I'll give it a go, they may surprise me.

I agree, the tones for the bass are very crackly for me too.

 

Bass line to White zombie is a fast one but doable... I'd say for the bassists this is more intermediate and the Blink182 track is more beginner... that said the chords threw me but they're not particularly complicated or shifty to be practiced to a decent standard. The Dream Theater bass line is slow paced but all over the neck so it could be a 100%er for a fair few folk in any class depending on how much time individuals have to practice.It's a week which is very good example of the class difficulty distinctions between the instrument paths. 

 

Anyhoo... my scores for first try's:

There is real  problem with difficult for bass players. "Class a song" almost helpless for bass.  There is one idea for bass players.

1. Now i will change class a song (in leaderboard) for bass In accordance with difficult bass path for current a songs.

2. There 2 choice:

a ) Or organizers, if have time test bass part and did how it i doing now in 1 paragraph. or if have not time for testing, set class how was always.

 b ) If anyone have time, can help us with testing bass path for a songs from "song selection list" and mark in separate column close to the song, like "b", "i"  or "m" . Then we always can put a song for bass  In accordance with difficult bass part.

I think this change will help out with making the bass side of things a bit more consistent.  However, it will probably make for more work for you and the other organizers, especially if any don't play bass much.  ...I know I feel completely out of my element trying to assess what the difficulty of a guitar part is, which has made me reluctant to add any songs to the selection list in the past.

 

Whenever I get free time, I will try to help out with testing and suggesting b/i/m class ranges for the bass parts of songs in the list.  But, I assume that the actual selection process to choose 3 songs for the championship will remain linked to the difficulty of the guitar parts only.  So it might be that a beginner, intermediate, and MC song are selected for their guitar parts, but maybe they would all fall into the range of intermediate for their bass parts, for example (or all beginner, all MC, or whatever).  So I think that along with or in addition to saying if a song is b/i/m level, I will try to give it a 1-10 rating with 1 being easiest and 10 being hardest.  That might help with tie-breaking if more than one of the songs has a bass part that falls into the same class range.

Rhythm guitar part on the Blink 182 is the most beginner part of this week, should be some 100's in there. I had the most fun playing that one so far and highest score out of all parts. I almost even scored higher on first play through of the Blink 182 lead than the White Zombie lead (66% vs 71%). Will play them a few more times this week.

I like the split bass and lead categories. I picked Zombie because it isn't tough but isn't so slow and boring like most beginner bass songs are. Last week was 1 friggin string open and 2 frets if I remember right. Was so boring I didn't even want to try for a 100% after a 99 on my first try.

 

Playing some songs now:)

Ok Zombie Bass is harder than i thought. i only had 1 playthrough on it and it was 89%. Luck I suppose:) Broke a string midway through it so no bass till tomorrow:(

 

Zombie lead 82% http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=308163202

 

Blink Ryth 92% http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=308163030

 

Blink lead 62% http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=308162917

 

Not playing well so not even going to touch Petrucci tonight.

I can probably be of use and collaborate with @@MilkmanDan to help with bass path difficulty distinction. Whether it be just to be back up if he's absent or to help with decision making on any bass tracks that are difficult to decide on where they belong. If two heads are in agreement it might make the choosing of the tracks placement in the b,I,m a little more accurate. Happy to lend a hand if needed :)

Idea of splitting guitar and bass paths when needed is really good. It adds flexibility and will be fair with both instruments participants. Also that's still selecting only 3 songs, and then deciding where bass goes. That won't be too much work (though, I lacked time past weeks).

Very easy INT Rhythm part.. I'm not going to chase the 2 notes that weren't recognised (as I won't learn anything by doing so and the song is boooooring - no offence to song selector)..  ;)

 

Chord practice for me this week.. :)

Will try all of the songs this week (and try to work on testing the bass on other stuff from the selection list also so that will be ready ahead of time), but I went for the White Zombie song first:

 

MC (Bass) 1st try:

2014-08-31_180407.jpgPretty sloppy while I was figuring it out, so it didn't sound like 99%.  But, I think I can build from there in Score Attack.
