attempted to play sabaton angels calling on bass but tuning seems to be off on the bass path @ Mikson ! 

I noticed it too! I kept thinking I was playing one fret off.

@ lowender

Yes, I realize that. The correct bass tuning is B-Std (this was also noted in the comments on the CDLC site). Unfortunately this tuning is bad playable for me, so for better recognition I prefer to play E-Std.
However, I tried converting bass path to B-Std. So test it, should sound right. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1NRTxIBtppYeRGGMGpTrlYJTe5wpwIh85?usp=sharing

Not sure if I did something wrong last week, but seems only one score posted. 

Feel free to yell at me if I'm not doing the screenshots right 🙂

Really enjoyed the Sabaton this week.

hah actually you are right, e standard does detect better on 4 string, Thanks for the converting it!

I had a kid born last week, expect lower competition from me in the coming weeks.

Sightreads for this week:

 

Nice n easy song.

Love survivor! They have great songs one of the best Aor bands of the 80s.

 

Not really my cup of tea, cool cover art though! 

 

Sabaton is always great.

Rhythm scores:

Hi all!

I thought I'd try participating in this, looks fun

my score for advanced bass. i'm not sure if I'm good enough to stay in the advance class, maybe one of the mods can advise? @ Rodman  or @ Mikson

It depends on you. It's possible that your skills are between intermediate and advanced, so it may be too easy or too hard for you to fight for a win. If you want, you can go back to intermediate for now to find out. 😉

I think your right, could I go back to intermediate if it's not going to be a problem. I'm in between the two at the moment so I need to practice my playing a bit more before I can compete with the amazing players in advanced level. 😁

I think I am the same, and I am still finding Int songs quite difficult sometimes (like this weeks choice), but decided to stay in Adv as easier Int songs were too easy 😉 

sightview scores

I used to listen to amitty affliction alot! so really happy they made it to the competition. hopefully more songs from them or in this style appear in future competitions

decent song and good cdlc (atleast this path was nice) solid int pick


 pretty solid track, enough variation to keep me entertained 

i think this is on the easier side for advanced? could pass as a int imo but still nice

yea nice
