Hey guys, I may be having a potential cable problem. I know the real tone cables have had issues for years, here is what I am experiencing. when I plug the cable into my pc, start Rocksmith, pick a song, it will ask me to tune my Bass and it says that the cable is not connected. now if it connect/disconnect usb then breakaway connector , unplug the guitar cable several times it starts to work. as i'm playing, it never stops working, works flawless until I unplug it, put it away, and start all over again. is this the sign of the cable starting to fail? I would think that if it was failing it would not connect at all or stop working while I'm playing. I use Rock smith with my PC, I use windows 10, my realtone gain is turned all the way up. I do use a BC Rich warlock bass that has passive pick ups. let me know what you guys think. do I just need a new cable or is it a passive pick or pc/game issue, thanks, todd

I don't know if it is the beginning of a failure or not. My first cable worked for one year and then just quit working so I had to get a new one. Hope you have better luck.

Maybe I am just stubborn. some nights it will start working after a minute or two, some nights it 5-10 minutes of constant fiddling with the cable. hasn't failed 100% so far. I wish there was a better cable option or one I could buy with a long warranty.

I think... there is evil calculator on chip.

After 666*666 song chip decide to be not 1 but 0

U get "loudy hizzz$£ noise"

 

Even if this is not necessary true, most people like to make money.

And really, i have 2 "loudy hizz$£ cables". 

Cable 1, didn't protect much, and it got some true damage in guitar connection, but second one treated like hurted **ssy, but it also died after 666*666 songs. 

Unmanaged to fix those things since issue is, i think, in Evil.Ubi.Chip.

 

T: E.U.C

Since day 1 of Rocksmith 2011 the cable doesn't work for me when I first boot up my PC.  I have to unplug it and reattach it to work, and it will work so long as I don't restart my PC.  This was an  issue for a lot of people and never went away for some PC's.

In my E.U.C Case, It just hizz loudly what ever i do. 

First cable i tried to fix by rewiring it since it was slightly damaged in guitar connection, but i was unabling to fix hizz issue.

I have evolved some hizz music, since bending E.U.C makes weirdo noises.

Planning to open E.U.C and make some adjustments...though its likely i just watch it burn after adjustment.

Not in hurry since got still 2 working cables, but E.U.C is counting and doomsday is near for at least one of my precious.

Thanks for the input guys, I was hoping it was just a setting on my pc. I went into sound settings and changed it to 100% and dvd quality....didn't help. I will continue to live with it. hasn't failed yet.

Not sure why you would have these issues. It's a USB device. I never unplug mine and never have an issue. If it's not connected when you boot your computer it won't load the driver. As far as them not being reliable both of mine where purchased when I first got the original  Rocksmith for PS3 when it first came out. Never had a problem with either of them. And even back then my computer knew what it was when I connected it.
