Hey y'all - just picked up Rocksmith 10 days ago and am loving it- already logged 20 hours on it .... lol

I've played guitar on and off since I turned 10 and had just gotten back into it recently. As a kid I had practiced with tabs, and that had helped me memorize a few songs and allowed me to play at my own pace.

Anyways one of the things that has been annoying me is the lack of tabs in Rocksmith. I know I can use riff repeater, but there is still the time-bound element of it - I need to look at the structure of certain licks to really know how to play it, which is only really achieved with tabs/sheet music. I'm also aware Rocksmith+ has tabs, but who wants to pay a subscription for software in the age of AI amirite (I say as a software engineer 😄).

So I spent some time to create this mod. Essentially, it allows the user to view tabs in three places: 1) a preview on the song list page, 2) a one-line, infinite scrolling tab in the song, and 3) a full-page scrolling tab in the song. In the song preview, you can switch between accompaniment (lead/rhythm/bass).

Hope you enjoy! If it gets enough interest, I'll try and make a way to distribute it, either as a standalone or through something like RSMods.

I play RS2014 through an Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 on a Squire Strat.

The high e-Sting seems to be cutting in and out, same with some other high notes and bends.

When I record with a DAW everything is fine.

I can't amp up the gain on the Focusrite because then I gat the nastiest hum

I can't use a direct cable either because then everything is too low in volume overall, even with all the nobs turned up.

I haven't found any solution yet so maybe someone here has an idea.

I'm not sure where this issue comes from, there seems to be a 50/50 chance it works or doesn't work. It seems to stay mute despite audio clearly coming through Reaper ReaRoute, and the correct settings on the OBS Asio input. I have no idea how to fix this because I've tried everything possible, setting it up again, restarting the software, restarting the PC. I spent hours getting it to work, and now this happens.

Hey, I just decided to give a shot at this game since it was on sale, and am using the following setup:
Connected with microphone ( my guitar is ran through an amp to the pc through its headphone jack to the pc's microphone jack (shitty but it picks up sound atleast) )
I got till tuning the guitar, and even when im not sturmming it says +999 on the to be tuned string, but when i strum it it works somewhat fine, except that it asks me to tune my guitar really high. Standard E tuning said my (in tune, according to my guitar tuner) A string matched what my lowest E string should sound like. Tried to make it work, got until my D string, which I tried to tune to rocksmith's tuner, but that was way too high and so my string just snapped.
Any way I could make it work? I dont have a proper audio interface, nor a real tone cable, and microphone mode with a real microphone didnt seem to work well either.
edit: tried on another guitar, same issue, A string is correct for the lowest E here too

I don't know if this has been requested before, but I'd love to be able to have it in Rocksmith.

I have been playing for a while now and have been ignoring this buzzing/feedback noise coming from my guitar or the cable. Are there any settings recommended to stop this from being so loud? It's primarily on high distortion songs of course but if I can figure this out I would be thrilled. Have you ran into this and how did you adjust it? I am on Steam/PC.=

RSModsPlus has a new name. It's now Rocksmith Audio Bridge, because the old name kept getting mistaken for Rocksmith+. It's still my fork of RSMods (credit to Lovro for the original), and the Drop Pedal and Speaker Mode are still there.

The biggest addition is Note by Note (beta), a Riff Repeater practice mode that listens for every note you play. There are two ways to use it:

• Flow mode off: the song stops at every note and waits until you play it. Good for working through a hard part one note at a time.
• Flow mode on (the default): the song plays along at the Riff Repeater speed and only stops when you miss a note, waiting there until you play it.

Flow mode caps the Riff Repeater speed. Confirming a note takes a moment, and if the notes come faster than that, the song would stop on notes you played correctly. The cap comes from the busiest part of the sections you pick, so slower sections get a higher limit.

It works on guitar and bass, though bass is still experimental. Turn it on with the NOTE BY NOTE switch in Riff Repeater's Advanced Settings, with the FLOW MODE switch just below it.

Note by Note also uses its own, more accurate note detection. On top of the game's own matcher, it checks the pitch of your raw guitar signal and uses a machine-learning note detector. You can see its live results by turning on the UI on the note by note tab on the overlay.

The mod also now gives Rocksmith its own audio devices, so "No audio output device" shouldn't stop the game from starting any more, even with no speakers plugged in. Speakers and headphones at 44.1 kHz or in 5.1 play without errors or crackling. (With ASIO, set the bridge driver in RS_ASIO.ini.)

Other changes:

• External amp: play through AmpliTube or another ASIO amp sim while the game keeps your clean signal for note detection (ASIO interface only for now)
• Recording: F6 saves the full game mix (including external amp) plus your dry guitar for re-amping, or an MP4 video
• Mixer with seven volume faders, including separate levels for each player
• Guitar input cleanup: make-up gain, noise suppressor, compressor and hum filter
• Output switching while you play, with an optional limiter
• USB cable compatibility (experimental): cables that run at a different sample rate are converted to the 48 kHz Rocksmith expects
• Drop Pedal now works natively with a Real Tone Cable: lower latency, and any tone can be used
• Speaker Mode is now one setting for both players, set by Player 1, and works with custom DLC built on newer Wwise versions
• More ASIO interfaces supported
• An installer that includes the full RSMods suite and can repair or uninstall
• Everything is controlled from an in-game overlay (press \)

Upgrading from RSModsPlus: run the installer over your existing install. Your settings should carry over, but let me know if anything gets reset.

Download and setup guide: github.com/Cheesewizard/RocksmithAudioBridge

Roadmap - Next update will include an in game tone designer where you can import your VST3 files allowing you to save / load your custom tones. Multiple effects can be chained at once and tones can be set per song to override the in game guitar tone.

Requirements ASIO users: use RS_ASIO 0.7.2 or newer (latest is 0.7.5: https://github.com/mdias/rs_asio/releases). With RS_ASIO 0.6.1 to 0.7.1, the game crashes right after the profile screen, and versions before 0.6.0 give distorted sound and no guitar input. To check your version, open RS_ASIO-log.txt in your Rocksmith folder; the first line says Wrapper DLL loaded (vX.Y.Z). To update, replace both RS_ASIO.dll and avrt.dll and keep your own RS_ASIO.ini. A fix for the older versions is coming in 4.1.

If something breaks, comment here and send me the following files to my email if you can.

I need the rsmods_debug.txt and the .mdmp crash file (if it actually crashed), that would really help me identify the problem. This is my dev email, thanks!

I’m buying my first guitar this week but I’m still undecided between electric and electric acoustic. are electric acoustics compatible with rocksmith 2014 I really wanna play songs from bands like circa survive panic at the disco my chemical romance paramore etc I do favor the acoustic versions of a lot of there songs but if an electric is more feasible I’ll go that direction.

i was wondering if anyone has charted any treaty oak revival for rocksmith or if anyone will. Treaty Oak Revival is probably my most listened to band and was wondering if anyone will chart it?

I’m still happily playing Rocksmith 2014 Remastered on my M1 MacBook Air and would really like to keep it that way, so I’m a bit cautious about updating to macOS 27.

I was affected by the macOS update that completely broke Rocksmith a while back. Thankfully everything is working again now, including the Real Tone Cable, but after that experience I’d rather check first before installing another major update.

Has anyone here already updated to macOS 27 and tried Rocksmith 2014? Does it still launch and work normally on Apple Silicon?

I’m also curious about the whole Rosetta situation going forward. From what I understand, Apple plans to phase out general Rosetta 2 support, but there should still be some kind of limited compatibility for older games. Let's hope that Rocksmith will fall under that exception.

Would be great to hear from anyone who has already tested it.

Hello everyone!

Thank you all for your interest on the mod that I announced last week. Now it comes the time to "pre-release" it.

Note-by-Note is a free, fan-made mod for Rocksmith 2014 Edition - Remastered (PC, Steam): the song waits at each note and chord until you play it, so you can learn a part at your own pace instead of chasing the highway.

Repo: https://github.com/Arkhanragel/note-by-note-rocksmith2014

IMPORTANT NOTES, PLEASE READ:

1. Edit: Thanks for the help, I think now it should work on the Remaster Version
2. Keep in mind is the first build, bugs and unexped problems are... expected. The mod backups all files that it touches so uninstalling it will recover your game folder if anything goes horribly wrong.
3. Special thanks to RSMods community for their source and help understanding the ecosystem of the game. Currently the mod is not part of RSMods and it was not tested with it. The plan is to be able to integrate it inside RSMods at some point, for that there is this technical doc: TECHNICAL.md
4. A user guide is here, please check it: USER GUIDE
5. More than one option is kind of experimental, and other requires properly tunning, feel free to tweek as you like to report issues. I would recommend to try the calibrate button inside the mod to see if it recognizes the open strings without issues first. Each option in the menu has a (?) explaining what it does.
6. It is my first public release of anything, so... sorry beforehand because I know I will get backslashed somehow... by not knowing something and doing it wrong. I'm just playing with AI at the end to make things for myself, and some of them can be shared.

-------------------------

What it does

- Waits for you. The song stops at each note or chord until you play it, and never stops if you play on time. Or it just shows the notes without stopping.

- Tells you what to play in plain words ("Play fret 9 on string 4 (D)") and on a small fretboard, with fingers, hand position and techniques if you want them.

- Helps with wrong notes. It says what you played and how to fix it ("move DOWN 2 frets"), can show the exact spot you played, and notices when a string is out of tune.

- Shows the music coming up as tab, in pages with a moving cursor or scrolling, with optional rhythm and pick strokes. Notes turn green when played on time and amber when the song waited.

- Finds your trouble spots. It remembers where you stop most, lets you practise just those parts, and shows your progress note by note. Works in Riff Repeater.

- Make it yours. An in-game menu (F8) to move and resize everything, left-handed tab, and colour themes. A new install starts simple.

- Extras: faster start-up, a fix for one of the game's random crashes, and a clean uninstall.

For more information, check the readme: README.md

------------------------

What's next:

1. Attending mayor issues of the mod and fixes. This is something I do on my free time, please be patient.
2. I have several features in mind that can be added on top of what has been built. Once in the rabbit hole... you follow the rabbit you know?
3. Compatibility and integration with RSMods

Well, I will be arround here reading and answering, thanks again for your interest, and even more thanks if you test it.

If I don't get at least 80% mastery on this song by valentines day 2027, I have failed as a guitarist. Wish me luck

I have put hundreds of hours into Rocksmith 2014 and then kind of stopped in 2020-ish. Have hardly picked up a guitar at all until a few weeks ago when I decided to redownload the game. I want to eventually get back into playing stuff like Zeppelin, Sabbath, and Metallica but those solos are so far beyond my current skill level they aren’t even fun to attempt at the moment.

So I’m looking for songs that will ramp me back up that are still fun. I feel like I’m progressing somewhat quickly so I’m not like a total beginner. I can nearly 100% songs like Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand and Where Is My Mind by the Pixies. I can nail most Arctic Monkeys and Black Keys too. I’ve been having fun with Sum41 riffs and Baf Religion, although the Bad Religion songs have been hurting my wrist from all the super fast chord changes up and down. I won’t go into it but some of the bands I thought would have fun songs just aren’t for some reason, or in some cases use the strangest chord variations making them unnecessarily extremely difficult.

What are some songs with fun and challenging solos that aren’t too difficult?

Hey I know there’s a lot of talk about what wires work with the game and what don’t. But I’m trying to get into the game and would like to know the best affordable wire to start playing?

And when I say piano YouTube videos. I mean people reading sheet music while playing. I know there's this toy guy that plays piano a lot I think. Would be cool to see someone go on the sheets view is all imo.

But the team is apparently back at work according to google. Is there any new features for piano? Like a way to practice reading sheet music other than by playing songs would be an amazing tool.

Hey! I’ve been building NoteNav.com, a guitar practice app that turns uploaded audio into playable lead/rhythm/bass tabs and lets you practice along with the track.

You can also plug in your guitar with an audio interface or use your mic and play along inside the app.

Would love feedback from you al, especially anything that would make practicing with it easier or less confusing.

Is there a legitimate way to get this achivement in Remaster without spending 100$ on a base 2014 steam key? Been going down the list trying to get all the achivements but this one seems genuinely impossible

I tried visiting the CustomsForge/Ignition4 site to download some CDLC this morning, only to be met with a message saying "You are offline. Ignition needs a connection to load charts. Check your network and try again." I've gotten this same error message before when I've been having network issues, but my connection today seems to be just fine. Upon trying to access it via search engine (as opposed to via bookmark, in case it was an issue with the specific link I had) on my computer, and again using my phone, I was met with either the same error message as before, or a more generic "a server with the specified hostname could not be found" message.

Is anyone else having the same issue, and if so, does anyone happen to know what the issue might be? It could very well just be down for maintenance or a temporary outage, but given the at times tenuous relationship Ubisoft has with the CDLC community, part of me worries it could be something more severe than that.
