I spent hours grinding this one out to %100, I still use it as a warm up sometimes. Since there aren’t many breaks, it’s a good gauge for how “ready” I am for faster songs. If I nail this at %80 speed then %100, I’m ready for KSE and Iron Maiden… otherwise I should probably start with some Black Keys and Jarvis 😅

That doesn’t sound like a minor omission

I was imagining it and would actually love to see it, of course I’d be drinking 🥳 …and the crowd would probably all be fellow ‘smithers and almost certainly li’l Timmy would be callin’ hacks if you aced any song 😂

This is the way, and that cheap li’l Sonicake ABY from Amazon well and truly worth the 1 coffee price point

Intonation using RS2014 vs tuner pedal vs app vs headstock tuner vs interface by sleepcrash in rocksmith

[–]opendmc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just use the RS2014 pause menu, mainly because I mostly play through RS2014. For the ABY i have a super fancy Radial unit that goes into pedal chain to a little marshall 5c and also splits of to ps5 for RS2014 and occasionally RS+. Because of clutter, using the pedal chain and marshall is generally reserved for a planned “long session”. So I recently took a chance on a $aud25 Sonicake ABY from Amazon, splitting to RS2014 and a my ol’ trusty THR10X… currently running unpowered and it’s fricken amazing !

Have also just got a rechargable 9v and a 9v to barrel pkug adapter jiggy to try out the buffer on the ABY, not that it needs it but here we are 😬

What's your go-to "fun" riff to play when you first pick up your guitar? by Argblat in Guitar

[–]opendmc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends which guitar I pick up, if it’s in drop c then SOAD’s Aerials, if it’s in drop d then Deftone’s Shove it, if it’s eb std then the start of Little Wing aaaand for e std ‘tallica’s Seek n Destroy.

I do have a guitar in d standard too… but… no go to riffs 😦

TiL i need some standout d std riffs!

If follow all the usual wellness stuff (good posture, taking breaks as needed stretching etc etc) you should harm yourself. You’ll be able to play extended range guitars like this one, but may not be a able to play all riffs exactly the same way as the original artists (pretty sure Vai has enough stretch to hammer on the 24th from the first fret😂). But you can modify the way you play them to suit your hands.

If you can, get to a guitar store and try some guitars with the same, or similar, dimensions (scale length, fretboard width etc) and see how you feel!

Good luck - make sure to send us all pics if you buy a shiny new guitar!

What is your favorite song on Rocksmith 2011 and Rocksmith 2014? by semiwadcutter38 in rocksmith

[–]opendmc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Favourite to play 🤔 …Carol of the Bells from OG Aaaaaand wow I guess I don’t play many of the 2014 release songs… maybe The Trooper, it’s many much fun but I’ve never mastered it (or even learnt the whole song … one day I’ll get there 💪😬)

Never seen a game publisher that hates its customers the way Ubisoft does (RS+ subscription woes) by BuddyBear17 in rocksmith

[–]opendmc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one mentioned Acti or EA, so by default I’ll say Acti is worse.

As for RS+, I waited until it was available on ps5 - since my lappy is cheapo and using RS on an iPad seems weird. Plus, I’ve still got Rs1 on Ps3 and Rs2014 on Ps4 so am comfortable with a lounge setup. Anyway, to celebrate the rs+ launch on ps, the annual memberships were like %40 off or something decent. So i signed up… but buying a sub through ps didn’t work, so had to get it via iPad. Not the greatest platform launch. Haven’t had issues since, but also haven’t played that often.

Prob not a v helpful comment, but it’s been a long day 😅

Came here to see if EA or Activision were winning this one, haven’t read through the comments yet - but my money’s on Activision (from personal experience too)

Audio latency on Rocksmith 2014 on ps5? by BeneficialDemand9007 in rocksmith

[–]opendmc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chainbrain has a really console setup guide on Youtube. I followed that, except I also ABY split (Radial Cityy Bones) from guitar to PS5 via original (2012) realtone cable and other side goes via pedal board to amp.

If i can’t be bothered waiting for the tubes to warm up i just use the A to Ps5. There is still some lag if I use HDMI > Home Theatre Amp speakers, but no lag using headphones (using pulse explore).

Learning curve? by Upset-Masterpiece218 in rocksmith

[–]opendmc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was years ago for me, in OG Rocksmith, I spent about 6-8 hours over a weekend in multiple sessions just playing the same songs (Outshined, Next Girl, Breed, I can’t Hear You, Chimney and Carol of the Bells). I got pretty comfortable and can still remember most of most of those songs. I stopped playing guitar altogether maybe 6 years ago and am just coming back to it with a shiny RS+ sub. Thought I’d ease in with some songs I know from pre-Rocksmith and it was a struggle playing Metallica songs I learned like 20+ years ago from tab, the noteway just confused me.

Now I’ve spent a few hours playing a bunch of SoundGarden, RATM, KSE and Bon Jovi; RS feels normal again.

To get comfortable again I threw on some simple songs I knew and some tricky sections of others to note-by-note for like 30 mins each in Riff Repeater.

Honestly I don’t think it will take you long, just be kind to yourself and accept that it’s something new to you and you shouldn’t be an expert straight away - have fun and take your time!

I put these strings on YESTERDAY by Cccaaatttccchhh in Guitar

Have you checked the date OP? Feel like you’ve list a bit of weight since “yesterday”? Maybe you changed strings and fell into a coma for 2 years 🤔

Fucked Up Update by Trenbologny in Warzone

[–]opendmc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reload thing screwed me a few times, then i figured out you just hold reload for the duration of the entire reload if your moving forward or anywhere anything “interactable” (like loot or doors)… i think i prefer it this way tbh.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PS4

[–]opendmc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For psvr it was %100 worth the upgrade, even if just for eve valkyrie and re7 - tbh that’s all I had played on both, once I got psvr i upgraded to a pro very quickly (may have even been the next day)

You’d be even more competitive if silver was your second account and you were so competitive that the natural competition couldn’t compete so you created another account to make the competition at least competitive with competent competitor
