bass and beginner gtr




sounded like hangar 19 or another dlc that was in rocksmith 1 bundle,  cant recall the name since i dont listen to megadeth but it had lots of chromatics is all i remember. Not entirely sure why this one is a 5 and the advanced a 7 i think they should be closer in difficulty wise, both are fun though

Ooof it's horrible when that happens! Hope you had some kind of back up just incase. I guess this is a healthy reminder for everyone else to create a backup of things you don't want lost.

Hope you get it fixed soon and thanks for the week!

Dayum! Rodman the machine finding ways to get a pc fast. Much respect and glad you found a way! 

Thx, man... not there yet...
Backup is not my problem - i got ALL ALL of my stuff in my private Cloud incl. my dlc library, RS profile, all of my tools, plugins and project files... so theoretically it´s only a Replace-Sync-Be Happy situation...

It would be if i hadn´t by replacing the 1TB ssd with a 4TB damaged the bluetooth antenna that is hidden waaaaay inside the worst-ever-to-open-laptop-in-the-whole-universe-forever and i am scared as hell that i have to do it again. brrrrr.... Plus - i have no time at all as i am away from wednesday and i am craving to do a cover and imrove my scores of the great songs that week instead of fixing hardware.

What i have is my RS-Pc that is hooked to a projectorscreen - great for RS and potentionally gaming... unusable for reapering and stuff.

Cross some fingers for me... at least i wanna get thongs running before i leave to be back full force from sunday.

Rod.

COVER OF THE WEEK:

FINISH YOUR COVER, ANY (which i cannot 😞 )

Rod.

let´s shred some

 

 

 

oh what a week!!!!!

 

love those two really much... so intense songs

ignore my scores, after all the shred did in no way try to achieve a good score in any way, just pure music enjoyment

 

I'm finding that Megadeth song harder than the Vulture song... or is that just me?

pretty surprised this was an intermediate song, makes me feel like i over rate songs now lol. I personally would consider this song and the other one around the same dificulty level, not sure why them crooked was higher by 1. 




if we are going for percentage i have a feeling most ppl would get a higher one on the masterclass rhythm than previous songs. Mostly cause its power metal so theres lots of singles. but i do see how it can be a high difficulty song due to some tricky sections in there.


yep glad im not masterclass lead, no idea how i would tackle the solos.


fun week thanks rod!

I can't get through the first verse of MD. It's hard and fast for me. And RR don't like my hammers over open 4th string at all. And I don't even tell about SA.

Havent heard TCV in a longgg time (huge QOTSA fan though), forgot how awesome this song was

 

Little update :

I don't understand where I'm missing notes with the Megadeath song tho 😅🤣 I was sure I nailed it 😭

Thanks for hosting @ Rodman !

I'm losing it lol

huh odd i thought i had added it to the previous post guess i didnt.

On a side note, since @ Classicoz  and @ Byon  you guys are fairly new thought this might help.
When uploading pictures to the site it is preferable to use only a link of the adress instead of dragging the image into the site. 
The places you can upload can be : Steam, imgur, postimages, and i believe you can do it via google drive and instagram but i havent tried either yet. (you can see what others use by right clicking their image and clicking open in new tab/ see their url)
This is due to this site having a limit of space/memory while uploading images, so later down the line you wont be able to drag the image on the site anymore.

Playing Score Attack is prefferable on the songs of your class as you can see where you are goofing up with the streaks and also because its the only image that we take account for the decimals. So if competition is tight, you might win cause you posted a score attack image instead of a normal image.

Regardless if you do score attack or normal always make sure to take a picture where it shows your streak as that also counts for the score. cheers!

Not a chance

That was a miracle

I haven't played much this week, but here are the scores:

Lead

Nice chill song, a bit boring chart...

Ohh this is a really hard intermediate, this chart seems quite uncomfortable to play in my opinion.

This was even easier for me, I didn't know this, quite good.

Don't ask me how I achieved 90 here, because it didn't sound good 😉 

And Rhythm

 

Bass advanced 
Better than I thought

I practiced this song many times.

 

lost MC trophy?! broke my cable, anyone recommend a cheap guarenteed-to-work replacement from scAmazon?

 

86% I really enjoy this one, it moves me up and down the fretboard and gives me slightly different chord shapes than I am used to. Thank you guys so much for continuing on with this. Much love!
