I'm a long-time Rocksmith user who finally got fed up, so I started working on my own app for playing songs.

Features/goals:

• Open file format (with converter for RS songs)
• Fast startup, speedy UI
• Runs as a plugin inside a DAW
• Resampling of songs a fixed offset from standard tuning so you don't need to retune
• Note/Chord detection
• Song browser
• Open source

Current limitations:

• Windows only (although the core is being designed to be cross-platform)

ChartPlayer can be downloaded here:

ChartPlayer plays songs in the OpenSongChart format:

A conversion tool for PSARC files can be downloaded here:

I tried Ableton DAW and it worked straight away. 

However the chart converter is not giving me any output... I set the source and output folders, put some RockBand files into it, and then it said finished processing but I see no output file...

I'm going to respond over on this thread:

to keep things in one place.
