Rocksmith 2014 Championship Week 167

[Nick K.]

@@fripponomic The part thats broken is the breakaway section near the end of the cable :( Can you believe that around my area, one cable costs almost 40 dollars?!!

[fripponomic]

They're much too expensive for that low quality, not only in Greece. I bought a 2nd one from Canada years ago, it was about 10€ cheaper than anywhere from Europe incl shipping.

[Telboy]

well a lot of hard work today on the new songs..........

 

I want 100% on this if i can't the chance to play this week.

 

 

 

 

After a lot of RR i managed to get passed the Volbeat song SA without  too many X's, very proud as there is a lot of single notes, and I am shit on those.

 

 

Dead Kennedys are giving a lot of trouble though, but my poor fingers were giving up on me by then,

 

 

 

liking the songs this week, cheers

INT Rhythm (so close...) 97.91% Streak only 165 though.

BEG Lead 99.16% Streak 62.

Fun/nice sounding songs this week.  

 

I literally laughed out loud at Volbeat's song.  I almost never listen to /read the lyrics, but the chorus' reference to an Ancient One seemed really funny coming from a Nickelback-style rock band  

 

Thanks for those who picked!

[Rodman]

hell yeah B) :

i thought i gotta do that for a long time, so today i spend a few(?) hours to teach myself some google script editing (thx @@TrbInTrbIn for the documentation), and yeah fxxx that 6 minute time limit for script execution, who in hell can work with that ;)

 

looks like we played some!

hey guys, and happy new year everyone :D
here's an ok score because I'm too lazy to practice, and I don't really like this song :

Hangover cured boys.
 
Master Class Bass 99.82% (I could very easily 100 this, but the song is soo long and boring to play haha)

Of course it is since you're not play a bass, but 6:30 is not really long.

 

On real bass it is boring as well :lol:

 

I wouldn't say boring or long, bass or not, but it's definitely no fun to play for me :( I need to start filling the song selection list (you guys too)

(glad to see I'm still the first at MC bass this year ;) !)

[Trevellyan82]

Happy new year everyone. Not been on for ages as my guitar tutor gives me loads of work throughout the week. Hopefully will have a crack at this weeks section if possible.

[Telboy]

spent a while arsing about with re-patching as the Mac wouldn't play nicely today after another steam update,

 

anyway here is some scores,

Nah, s'ok.  I want to earn it. :)

 

I went to Maplin and bought a generic guitar to USB lead (£21.99).  It's better than using the Mac's inbuilt mic, but I'm sure I could set it up a bit better.  The gain seems very high, and it's missing fast repeated notes:

So I had a play around with my old Realtone cable, and it seems it was only broken at the USB to breakaway section, as I swapped this section from the one that is now really broken, and it seems to work quite well:

Does anyone know how to test the Hercules card in the Realtone cable?  (With the two cables I've had, in three years, I've had to replace the jack ends on both, I've had one apparent breakage at the USB end, and I do believe I've now got a problem with the Hercules card on one...)
