Rock on!!!

I cannot get through this song without fudging at least one chord switch, and I just do not have the stamina left for the shredding by the time I get to the solo.

But once I got through SA I did find another couple percent. Still have some time, might go for a couple more.

Keep getting same percentage, but not the same streak. Go figure..

 

Krakatit 93.78%

Nailed the chuggy arpegs and did a decent solo. This came out after:

Gonna call it a night. Might squeeze a little more out of this tune before the week ends, but I'm not exactly at my prime in the morning, so I doubt it. :lol:  I'm content with my efforts this week - I feel like I'm improving again!

pretty cool we're doing a song from someone on here's band, not too hard but it was hard to perfect  and nail all the scrapes

this was fun felt more at home with the power chords and minor pentatonic stuff, weird at the end with the faded out solo

never would have played this normally just because it's not on my radar. progressed a lot with it over the week but I could only get up to the 80s in the end.

Edit - looks like turned it down on me for this one whoops

@@macjm You can turn leveling down off somewhere in the settings :)

Google translates to "the thick intestine'......that's funny 'cos when I play it, it sounds like s#$t  :P

[PS, for those who are interested in my videos: I'll be getting a new phone with a 20 Megapixel, 60FPS camera [my current one is only 8MP, 30FPS], so I'm waiting for that, but once I get it I'll make my videos on Chimera, Altitudes, and this Testostyrannosaurus song too, in 60FPS. ]

@@missis sumner - just checked on Ham Kummst - all is perfect over here with the bass on the fixed 1.6 version.

 

Can you delete, redownload and recheck?

thx

Did you get a real bass by now, Joker?

If not, you really should. I agree that most of the bass arrangements are less than 1/2 the fun emulated!

 

And yes, your videos are very welcome.

Nah, still no real bass, I don't have a bunch of disposable money for a bass haha, probably will never have for a good while.

Some of you may not noticed that we had a change of time to summer one recently (so we're sitting on CEST now, at least most of Organizers). So now weeks will start around 7 p.m. CEST, but I will have to start ~1 hour before that today, so feel warned :)

I could probably have gotten a better score if i didnt always play the songs the last day https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4zebKHkDZhISnAzV0lYSFZZQUU/view?usp=sharing

Will do.  I reverted to the older version this week, and all was good.  I don't know what has produced all those slaps pops and slides, but if it happens again, I'll video it for you.
