Greetings!

I've found out someday that Rocksmith uses low bitrate audio for DLC. Is that true? Cause I've read somewhere in this forum that max bitrate is 128k... I'm not that audiophile, but this is really low, and now I can't live knowing that.. Is there any way to get higher bitrate, making my own CDLC? I think that in metal music (for example) it does very bad effect, which can be heard easily and significantly affects experience... (not mentioning that much fun gets flushed away :(( )

Yep it's true, the standard audio quality for odlc and most cdlc is 128k. The audio file is like 95% of the file size and increasing it any more will quickly add up for a rather small benefit most people probably won't notice (especially once you start playing over it).

If you use the rstoolkit (instead of the much better dlc builder for some reason) you can change the maximum quality. For the audio quality to bitrate conversion look here and make sure you don't downsample in eof by accident when adding leading silence.

Thanks, didn't make CDLC for a long time.. Tried once today.  Increased quality, at least file size became better.

One thing I'm not quite agree with... is that it is quite noticable while playing along track (mostly considering of the original song and it's complexity of course).
