Slow down satch boogie?

[VoidSixx]

Is there any way to slow down the chart for satch boogie? I have a feeling it would be a lot easier to learn and play if the notes didn't rush off the screen before you even had a chance to register what note it was.

Using Riff Repeater you can select the entire song and slow it down by percentile to whatever speed you like. Or you can select just a portion of the song and loop it at whatever speed you like.

And a third time.......

Riff Repeater is your friend.

Thanks for the help, but this isn't quite when I ment. I still want the song at 100% speed, but I want to slow down the CHART so that the notes are closer together and don't zip by quite so fast.

Not sure how you can do that but you could print out the guitar tab so you can study that too.

WTF? The chart is in sync with the music. Slowing down the chart while keeping the music at 100% speed means both are not in sync anymore, which is pretty useless for a tool like RS.

Op? can you play ScoreAttack and get platinum scores an Master? If not use RifRepeater and slow down the note highway. You will never learn the song at 100% unless you slow down and master each section at 100% full chart and then move up the speed.

Grimlog is right. maybe RS is not for you.

Edited du to my bad eyesight! LOL

Paladin, I think you are addressing the wrong person, did you mean to address the OP? BTW, I have a song at 100% without slowing it down in Riff Repeater ;-) Also, I don't think Grimlog said RS wasn't for the OP either. - Just an observation.

Yes my bad! Sorry.....

have fun with the new pack btw. Send us some 100% FC scrren shots when you master those bad boys.

I burned up some fingers on Slow Gin last night. Fingers still hurt from the bends. Not the scuba diving type either!

I am suffering a little carpel tunnel in my left hand so I might not be 100% for a while ;-)

I never use RR to slow down songs and play parts until I master them. I just play along as good as I can. This is not the best way to learn the songs, but for me it's the most fun one :D I have a few songs at 100+ (>10) and 30+ songs at >99% (all lead). I have all of my songs at >60% mastery, so I don't think I'm doing that bad.
My point was that it's technically impossible to slow down the chart and keep the music at 100% speed while keeping them in sync. 16 notes/second in the music means 16 notes/second in the chart. 16 notes/second in the chart means the squares have to be very close and fast. That's how it is. I'm sure it's not 16 notes/second in Scatch Boogie, but this is how this song feels for me :D

I've actually got over 10 songs with 100+% mastery, even got the achievement for it.

In my post, I said the notes are closer together. If you slow down the chart, it wont be out of sync if you make the notes closer together. Take a look at the Fury of The Storm custom, that song is faster than most songs on rocksmith, but the notes are quite close together (probably a little too close) so you can see the notes for a lot longer.

[grimlog]

You know the concept of notes? Difference between 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 and 1/32 notes? Sorry for asking, but I really don't know anything about your musical background :D That is what determines how close the squares are. BPM determines the speed of chart. Making notes closer and running the chart slower is like playing the song in half speed, but 1/8 notes instead of 1/4 notes. I don't think RS has a setting that does this.

[VoidSixx]

I've had a little bit of experience with making customs, and you can choose how fast the chart goes by, and the notes are adjusted to compensate. Look at some customs, there are some really fast songs (like most dragonforce CDLCs) that have closely spaced notes with a slow chart, then there are some slow songs with fast charts and big spaced notes, and vice versa.

I can play to a metronome, though I can't quite remember notes. I think it's like 1/4 is 1 note per tick on a met, 2/4 is 2 notes per tick .etc (though I think that's 1/8 and not 2/4).

It took me a second, but I think I understand what the OP is saying now. Haven't you ever noticed that there are some charts that just seem to go really fast? Not necessarily that there are a lot of notes, but just that the note highway moves really fast. Imagine if instead of showing 4 measures of 16th notes on the screen at a time (64 notes), it instead showed 6 measures of 16th noters (96 notes). You would still have to play at the same tempo but it would seem a little slower because you could look ahead further. There are certainly tracks where I felt the "speed" of the track wasn't optimized.

I have no experience with customs, but AFAIK there is no way to speed up or slow down a track outside of using RR which is not what the OP is really after.

RR.
