I'm basing this email on rock band since I don't have much experience with
guitar hero, although it will probably work similarly. ok here's the
problem. we want to learn how to play rock band preferably on expert, on our
instrument of choice. the big issue? it can be rather difficult to figure
out the chart since we're blind. huge problem right there lol. possible
solution? record the stems for the instrument and figure out the note
charting by ear. I don't know about you guys, but my problem isn't
strumming, or even figuring out the notes, my problem is figuring out what a
really difficult song is supposed to sound like so I could figure out the
buttons for the thing. how many of you have a perfect note by note
representation of let's say panic attacks solo in your head? bet not many
people do. and if you can't figure out what it sounds like, you can't play
it on rock band. So my idea is a simple one. let us rb players get together
and record some instrument stems since harmonix is unlikely to provide them
to us. this should be easily accomplished by choosing practice, setting the
game to whichever difficulty you're comfortable with, then set it to 50%
speed and record the guitar track in sections. this will make it a lot
easier to learn songs on expert or any difficulty as a matter of fact. did
this email make sense to anyone, and are you guys interested? we'll need
people to help with stem recordings, and preferably a site to host them.
remember these stems would have to be perfect else there's not much point,
but since we'll be recording each individual section it should be no problem
for most songs. this is the craziest idea I've had in a while, and I'll
admit a brute force method of doing things, not to mention that it sounds
like a pretty insane and time consuming task even to me, but I hope you guys
like it and help out. I can put up a sample if people are scratching their
heads in confusion and didn't understand a thing I just wrote lol.
