I think now, unless something really takes my interests, I'm giving up on making CDLC.
There's a few reasons for this.
1. I'm not improving while playing music. I can't play. I can write, and I know how to use VST's, I post my music here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx7EGZD_iyKzWP_kgveSMTQ. My metal cover of Ys Seven Mother Earth Altago which will come out in at least a week, is amazing. I love what I've done with it. But with guitar playing, I just can't do it. And that leads into the 2nd point.
2. I'm bored. To be honest, I'd rather be playing the hardest songs all the time, but I don't feel comfortable about it in my current situation. I could probably dedicate my time to playing Animals as Leaders, DragonForce, Obscura, Jason Becker, all the difficult songs. But it sounds bad, and again because I have weird social anxiety, I don't like people hearing the sounds of out of key guitar playing. Otherwise I'd be fine just making a song list of the toughest songs.
3. I got Covid. Trust me, you do not want this. I wouldn't even wish it on the people who've committed the most heinous crimes. I am double vaccinated, but I appear to have gotten bad side effects. I have the original Covid, Sars Cov 2 I think? But it's worse because I have long Covid. A cough and a complete loss of taste and smell. Been a month since I had it, and it's really taking a toll on my mental health. I plan on playing more games as a result.
4. My mental health. I sort of go into it here:
you can see my art in that too. My only 'Okay' art this year. But the TL:DR is, I feel more depressed because of Covid. I'm struggling to eat and enjoy food because I literally cannot taste or smell anything. Smell has only slightly come back, but even that's fucked up as now, when I smell certain seasonings in things, I smell something else. I would go and sort out my mental health issues, but there's literally no help out there for me. I'm beyond what a therapist could tell me. Therapists can't beat my rationale for reasons for me to commit suicide. Neither can you.
Before any of this happened, I sorta planned on fixing CDLC people requested I edit, and making a CDLC for a song I like called "Scourge of the Universe" by DM Dokoru.
Either way, I'm retiring from this until further notice. Plus, I think I have more worthwhile hobbies to do. Art and music really grab my interest. Especially as they are something I want to pursue to give back to the world as my thanks for all the content I've consumed in those areas. I'm mainly an NSFW artist for anyone wondering. I have a Pixiv account, unsure if I can link it.
Bye. And thanks for all the inspiring CDLC and music that has been posted here, and of course all the CDLC creators.

(I was formerly known as SuperSonic. Been meaning to get a name change for a while)
Moving on.
Welp. I think this is it for me. I find myself increasingly bored of playing Rocksmith 2014. For some reason, even though I have autism, routine just isn't that fun for me. I have this issue with everything else I do in life. It might need to be something I need to get checked out.
That aside, I wanted to announce that I'm sort of done with Rocksmith 2014 for a while? I think I'll try to keep playing. The problem is, the game runs like shit on my new PC.
Here are the specs for my new PC:
Case: Corsair 4000D Airflow
PSU: Corsair TXM 650W Semi Modular
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro H100x
Motherboard: ASUS Tuf Gaming B550-Plus
RAM: 32 GB Corsair Vengance (4x8GB sticks, 3600Mhz)
Primary Storage (Windows 10 installed): 1TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus.
Additional Storage Drives: Seagate Barracuda 2TB, Samsung Evo 860, Toshiba External HDD (2TB),
Video Card: GIGABYTE AORUS GeForce RTX 3070 Master
It just keeps white screening on launch, with no suggestions or fixes really working. When I alt tab, it will white screen and stay like that forever. The screen also gets stuck when it does this, which in this case, would warrant the game being considered some sort of virus I guess. It shouldn't be doing that. And that isn't the worst thing though. I've simply run out of music to play.
Music drought
I've done my best to find new music. I have a CDLC library of over 1700 songs. About 700 of which are favorited. I've listened to tens of thousands of songs, and have quite a few in my MP3 Playlist of music. Apparently 9900 songs according to File Explorer, with the most coming from Falcom Sound Team. The only few songs I've found fun to play on guitar recently are Sylosis. And everything else is just, meh. I also like songs that are solo-y, like Steve Vai. I'm bored. I like songs that move around or have a big kick.
To address the point I might hear in response to this. I would make more CDLC, and tab more songs. I just don't have the time. If maybe someone can figure out a way to give me 2 hours of sleep and be energetic, then I would probably find time to do that. Currently, I can't. I can't really be bothered. And I need to learn more. I don't know enough music theory, I don't know tones at all.
What I might do instead
I also have other hobbies to pursue, such as gaming, music, art, writing, ethics and activism. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx7EGZD_iyKzWP_kgveSMTQ https://www.deviantart.com/eeveeone I was kind of bought up to be selfish, but I broke out from that. It just isn't me. I want to do things that can benefit others in a positive way. That can make a big impact. Of course I still want to play electric guitar and bass. But I don't want to be a God at either. I just want to be decent, so I can make better music.
If I had to say what my main goal would be, it would probably be music. I have this dream of making a band about some of my other passions, and creating a new genre. I'll call it Djazz. Though it's sorta already half been done by Animals As Leaders, I think it would be an interesting concept. I also want to use inspirations like Demetori and Linkin Park to sorta make music. It depends. My goal isn't to rush out music and make a profit, it's to make good music. Current situation makes it difficult since I can't play my own instruments let alone compose and produce properly. But I'll have to make do. I get the gist of it.
Small rant about the community
Something to say about the site. I don't really have anything against people, but it gets kinda annoying when someone releases an entire CDLC, one that I have tabbed out myself might I add, with a single arrangement or little to no variation on them. Where someone could literally just say "Hey, I made a tone" or "I added an arrangement, if you could update this." It's instead "I'ma reupload this." it feels really anti-social. Yet, I'm the one with social anxiety, and I have previously collaberated with others based on their profile status (When they last visited that is. Some people have made just one or two CDLC's and left)
Also, some additional feedback for this site and the tools.
CustomsForge: Favorites option for certain database entries like Bands/Artist, or Album, or Song Title, or Year. Something that can help people find music they like, or be notified when a new song comes out that they may have missed, since a lot of users update/upload daily. Let's say I have the band Architects favorited. I should now receive notifications of (And customizable via updated and or added) Architects CDLC. It's a great quality of life.
EOF: Just scrap it. This, alongside Toolkit, has been the most frustrating software I've had to work with at times. EOF is just everything I hate about software. It's old, it's outdated, there's no way to view keyboard shortcuts. There needs to be a new interface creator for Rocksmith. If anyone's ever seen that developer video the guys at Ubisoft San Fransisco made, you could see one of the developers using their software. It's decked out. It has everything on it. Everything EOF has except for that grey box below. Replaced with a toolbar I think. I don't like the lack of customizability in EOF. I hate that the jump to end/start buttons are right next to the fast forward and fast backward buttons. And the interface can be really buggy at times too. I remember before, quite a few times, I'd drag the start point of the note highway, and whilst it was dragging, it would magically change the BPM and make that beat tiny, and also happen to other bars. There's also that bug with not being able to calculate /16 Time Signatures in repeats, and alternate repeats not existing. Also, it's third party software. It's not gonna be that great anyway based on that grounding. It was designed for guitar hero first if I'm not mistaken.
Toolkit: Remove the requirement for an older version of Wwise, or at least make a working link that is accessible for creators to download the older version of Wwise. Errors should also try to show what happened in a simpler way rather than lines of folder destinations. Also, a nice quality of life feature would be to do with the volumes. There should be an example preview, which is what we should hear in game as the volume. So it's up to the creators to fix that volume. Volume has always been an issue in CDLC since every audio rip is different.
TL:DR: I'm pursuing other hobbies and will be spending a lot less time on Rocksmith 2014 and CDLC as a whole. Tabs will be extremely rare, and CDLCs still rare. Depends on the music I find.

Can't remember if anyone requested it or if it appeared on the database then got removed. I will be working on making a CLDC for Sylosis - Appirations. Honestly surprised nobody had made it yet. It's such a good song. There is a tab for it as well. Two even. Usually when there's CDLC for a song, it's because the tab is scuffed or something. Usually a simple fix, or it can be a Periphery RACECAR situation, where it's so big, you almost lose your sanity editing it. I'm seriously not sure how I made that CDLC.
Also, I'm currently working on reworking Demetori - View of the River Styx. Where a bunch of notes have been corrected, and it should be more playable and sound like the original. Done the leads, almost finished with Rhythm.

Rework for Demetori Wind God Girl incoming. I finally discovered the issue with that intro. Wrong notes, to put it plain and simply. Person who tabbed it only put the harmony notes there which is... I dunno. But I will be correcting all the mistakes in that tab as best as I can. Meaning it will be easier to play and not this, ass of a riff to play on the high E string. I hate bending on the high E string. So easily broken.

Just listening to Architects for the first time... Yep. This is epic.
AND WTF, THIS INTRO SOUNDS LIKE THIS DEMETORI SONGBTW, if you love Architects, you’ll love Demetori. -
Just heard NAPOLEON for the first time... art.

Well, that was unexpected. World of Warcraft has a 100% XP Boost until the 20th of April. Getting my Alts to 120 (Which will total around 23 characters in total. An extra one for the Demon Hunter I have on another realm). It's crazy. I haven't said this before, but I am vegan. I might as well tell everyone that now. I was vegan before, but I was stupidly thinking that what I was doing wasn't helping anyone, so I quit. Went vegan again a few months ago after seeing the demand increase. Now we're in a situation where we're on lockdown because of a virus that was caused from the exploitation of animals. It sucks that people won't take it seriously, that they (And even myself) are responsible for the deaths and the suffering caused from Coronavirus. People point to China as the problem. But it's not. If the world was vegan, there would be no viruses originating from a food market. Some advice for those still shopping. Go with vegan food. It's a lot better for you than any animal products you can find. There's no denying that animal products are the cause of some of the deadliest diseases and cancers on the planet. This would be the worst time to get that. So, go vegan.

So, things are going kinda slow. Got into WoW again. Got suspended for 3 days again, because I'm an asshat, I have uncontrollable anger. Anyway, content is coming, I have three (Potentially) CDLC's coming out. Maybe more once I listen to every single Falcom Sound Team song. Yes, I'm listening to all 250+ game soundtracks they have released. My favorite so far is a mix between Legend of Heroes and Ys. Zwei is also alright. But damn, the Legend of Heroes music of recent is just incredible. One of the soundtracks was probably the only soundtrack I deem worthy of a masterpiece of music. Because all the songs sounded great, they sounded incredible. It's hard to pick a favorite song, because they're all just amazing. Dreaming and The Boy Got Wings will be the best Ys songs. Legend of Heroes however, Sophisticated Fight is amazing (tab for that soon), there's that other one with its most iconic theme, forgot what it was, but it has hundreds of covers.
