I was thinking i would have done worst on this MC song but i've past the tapping part well and the rest of the solo wasn't that bad...

@@SfcoAwol Next your step. I beat your streak (enough for win)   :)

Master mode kicked in >.>. I'm falling apart in the solo after the tapping bit.

You can turn off master mode in the options menu... Means it won't kick in automatically.

... does anyone else have the problem that RS does not recognize many of the muted chords - esp. Drop D - 2nd Fret e Powerchord as used in actual BegClass song - kept me from getting better scores yd (no matter - i surely have to avoid 99% :) ). 

I tried w my Gibson Sg and my BC Rich WL too - same issue - multiple recalibrations - as if there was not enough output when muted - or is the interference factor - most probaly - behind the guitar ;)

 

Regards,

R.

Beg Bass- Too easy  :)

Try to play the chords in riffrepeater and play them with different tiny details. Like how much you mute the chord, how hard you press down the strings, how much volume comes out of each of the strings (I've had problems with a few open chords where palmmuting the low E and A string so the bottom 4 strings rang out much louder solved the problem...)

 

It's a little weird but there's usually a way to get RS to listen :D

Thx m8!

 

Gonna try this, the funny fact is that they are not recognised even when they sound right ... i´ll let you know if there is any improvement...

i used to have the same problem back when i first started playing, when playing drop D make sure your relaxed and which if your struggling can be very hard stay relaxed but it doesn't take much pressure, i've found if your pressing to hard its easy to bend the note withought noticing and then rocksmith notices it when your muting, you'll get used to it with practice ;) 

@@SfcoAwol Perfect score for a song with bad detection chords  in RS ! Awesome. Congratulations, you stubborn winner :)

my tattoo is finished, I think I can play again on Saturday
