BFG DIVISION on ROCKSMITH

[@Rab1dGAMER]

Mick Gordon recorded most of the DOOM 2016 OST with a 9 string guitar which is why it's so low. Would actually have loved it if Rocksmith supported 7+ string guitars

[@Ducktapejesus]

Mick did aquire a 9 string for Dooms sound track but I think he used a 8 string guitar on BFG Division. Or atleast he use a 8 string in DOOM: Behind The Music Part 1

[@Rab1dGAMER]

JakePriest go see Mick Gordon's DOOM: Behind the music, he himself says he used a 9 string

[@Ducktapejesus]

Yeah but he doesn't mention on what songs he used the 9 string.

[@Stammrain]

Yeah. But he used an 8 on this song

[@akumakami9727]

I've always wondered how do you deal with tunings that low. I mean I use a .80 for A and I haven't seen any thicker guitar strings unless players just use bass strings or deal with the floppy. I need that tension for me personally lol

[@Chainbrain]

This is actually played at ONE WHOLE OCTAVE DOWN E TUNING. Thank the lord god for my drop tune pedal. p.s. thank you to SheppardOfFire for another fun chart :D

[@akumakami9727]

Yeah... I would say you probably need at least a .80 gauge string, but... I use .80 for A so maybe a .100 :p bass strings for days!

Me: I'm going to go to bed early tonight! Me at 4:07 am: (Based on a true story)

[@therenofficial]

4:42 for me

[@1slo_eco]

I love the DOOM soundtracks cause playing them are so fun especially when it’s a song like this BFG division, when your just chugging on 1 for SUPER low string. To me that’s just satisfying

[@Chainbrain]

Tons of fun to get that chonky groove on!

[@skinWalkman]

A bit late to the party but a little fun fact. Mick Gordon said that he had to buy a 9 string just to record the Doom soundtrack. It was the only way for him to get the tuning just right.

[@SheppardOfFire]

Hope you enjoyed my custom!

[@Pvt_PartsPSN]

Would love to see Tweaker (Doom 3’s Theme) in Rocksmith.

Dear God that tuning

[@matthewdyer9984]

That's some deep ass tuning.

0:52 start

In the grim darkness of far future, there is only ripped flesh, teared metal and doom.

[@djiboutiball7560]

Now this is where it's at

[@Chainbrain]

Dont ever change your display picture

[@djiboutiball7560]

mmkay, also Mick Gordon used an 8 string to make the soundtrack

[@MonsterBuddy10]

Awesome job man! Although that tone sounds like it has too much mids and doesn't have much punch on the low end, but that's just me being picky lol

[@Chainbrain]

I can agree with that. The game only lets you save 3 custom tones, and none of mine really worked at this low, so I used the default one in the chart.

[@wea69420]

You can't get away with low end that low lol. It's better to crank the mids to get some more attack and use the first harmonics rather than the fundamentals

[@mukaeplay5597]

Man...the guitar have a chainsaw sound.

[@demo9750]

I played along to this on bass guitar. Which begs the question, why do people need 9 string guitars when you can just use a bass?

[@cadianguardian]

Because duh-jent

[@backlash6436]

Just make sure it doesn't blow up your amp 😉

[@nlutchy7200]

I tuned my Epiphone sg to the custom tuning and it could BARELY handle it

[@Chainbrain]

Yeah you would need some uber massive strings. And an SG having the 24.75 scale would make it even floppier

[@kad0877]

Yeah I tried to do this with 56 gauge strings and it didn't work too well either lmfao

[@Chainbrain]

Did they become SPAGHET?

[@kad0877]

@@Chainbrain oh they became pretty thicc spaghet

[@MrSlendykinsSockman]

I literally just listened to this on the train home, I don't believe this is coincidence 🤔

Why did my salad become raw steak?

[@keharacek]

Yay I can follow with my guitar in standard E.. One octave more, one octave less.. who cares.. Fun custom!

[@Aaron-nz3uy]

Look at me mom. I have the recent tip cameo!

[@battlefields2mine]

The song isn't Slayer's but it's SLAYER

[@00Noontide]

👌🏻

[@XbninjaXIV]

It could be your string set too, probably need some .12s or an 8 string xD

[@kad0877]

Yeah I'm using 11s through 56s and I can't get it to sound good that low lol

[@randompanda876]

What guitar are you using? It looks awesome and your gear section fails to mention what it is

[@Chainbrain]

Its a custom Kiesel Osiris!

[@purplezer0196]

This is on Rocksmith for PC right?

[@lolgoteem5372]

Is this on steam?

[@SkulkerMechanic1989]

Imagine US Soldiers in a gunfight to this song.

[@enricriera4890]

I am always wondering... Which headphones are you using? BTW Awesome video, like always!!!

[@Chainbrain]

I use the Hyper X Cloud flight! Really comfortable, wireless, and no sound delay with Rocksmith! amzn.to/2nXIC1o

[@enricriera4890]

Thank you!!!

[@serfas3192]

Wait is BFG actually a learnable song on Rocksmith?

[@majicktek5051]

It's CDLC, or "custom downloadable content". It's like a community chart in guitar hero or a custom beat map in beat saber

[@doomslayer_spyrofan3943]

Impossible in a good way

[@addmk5056]

how

[@kpshag]

Awesome song and awesome video, but I thought the song was recorded with an octave shift anyways, so why isn't it just part of the tone instead of the tuning? :V

[@Chainbrain]

Mick plays 8 and 9 strings, not pitch shifted.

[@kpshag]

@@Chainbrain Ah, you're right! My bad.

[@bedaskun5312]

Is it tuned to Drop B ?

[@Chainbrain]

It is E tuning, one full octave down. I can only do this on 6 string by using my drop tune pedal. Otherwise, you would need an 8 or 9 string and tune down.

[@bedaskun5312]

@@Chainbrain Daamn, that's low. I thought Mick Gordon plays this with a 7 string, I'm probably wrong tho.

[@thatonebandit9333]

Mick Gordon actually used a 9 string for most the OST, but he used an 8 string on this one.

[@PallyNut]

How much does that pedal cost?

[@SheppardOfFire]

I'm pretty sure it's a DigiTech Drop pedal. In Canada, it's $255

[@Chainbrain]

Heres an amazon link to it on .com amzn.to/2w4FNzO

[@chaoticneutral1090]

for this low a tuning you need a new tone LUL

[@jotapedonoso4696]

Why not just playing bass at this point
