Team Rocksmith 2014 for ever ! ❤

[@texasmuddslingers]

Wish I could get it, Have it for xbox but want to use it on pc with audio interface.

[@ThePuehr]

​@@texasmuddslingersthat is still possible in steam, audio interface is also not too difficult to run with it, even all sorts of custom songs made by comunity. That is just what i did and im really happy with it

[@SkullFoxDK]

whats with the "wavegroup" sounding songs in Rocksmith+ tho

[@texasmuddslingers]

@@ThePuehr How do I get it on there? I never purchased it and its no longer an option.

[@SewerASMR]

[@datooch]

Awesome stuff. I love how humble you are especially since we know how great of a guitarist you are.

[@jthugg1528]

I’ve got nearly 1000 hours in Rocksmith 2014 and while there is a slight learning curve to associating strings with different colors it’s been a fantastic way to learn my favorite songs. The game will automatically change your guitar’s tone to match the song throughout, so you can just focus on playing the guitar and if you hit the right notes on time you sound just like the recording. Sometimes I’ll use a different pickup on my guitar just to standout a little more from the recording if I’m feeling it. Riff repeater is one of my favorite features as you can slow the song down and gradually speed up as your accuracy increases, which makes learning complicated solos or getting your timing just right on chord transitions much easier. R14 had video lessons and exercises that are made into pixelated arcade games but honestly haven’t played them much. This game doesn’t replace a real guitar instructor but it’s the perfect addition for helping you practice and improve. I love Rocksmith 2014, because you bought the game and each song or pack of songs once AND get the REAL song that was yours to play. Unfortunately R14 is being discontinued and replaced with Rocksmith+ which has a subscription model 🙄. I mean they kept a lot of the great features from the 2014 version, but you don’t get the REAL song recording in many cases. They’re mostly cover versions of the songs which are pretty good but it’s not the same, and there’s my honest unsponsored review.

[@davidjohnston4240]

More importantly, the music you payed for on RS 2014 does not work on Rocksmith+. It's a worthless money grab.

[@IrreIephant]

Hey just a quick update for anyone else that may be reading this, they re-released 2014 on steam as of Dec 2024 and at the time of this comment they are working to get CDLC working on this new version. The new one, to your point, has removed all the songs they don't have permissions to use anymore so all that's left is a handful of songs and the lessons. When CDLC is working shortly, I will gladly recommend this new version to people because downloading custom songs is the bulk of what we're all doing. It is currently 4$ or something on steam. I agree with you point entirely though I've been playing RS for 10 years. It was vital to my learning.

[@joshuadevaughn8613]

I’ve always thought there should be a single player campaign where you try and become a rockstar depending on note accuracy and what not. Maybe I just played too much guitar hero as a kid.

[@IrreIephant]

@ damn now that would be fun

[@tomelliott90]

Finally a video where your guitar playing looks human!!! That is a compliment!

[@shartne]

is she playing a guitar? Oh that is cool.

[@toms4806]

I still play guitar hero and rock band. I play on expert and it’s a blast. I’m gonna give this a shot. I’m 57 but I guess you’re never too old to learn.

[@fpvince4622]

FYI.... rocksmith 2014 is still alive and well. Good to see Sophie giving the smith some love.

[@robpace881]

Right I use/play 2014 everyday love it wish they still updated the DLC's, new songs for it. I play on PS

Love that you gave RockSmith a go, When I seen this come out "the first rocksmith" I had to try it and see how it worked and if you learn the song note for note. I was impressed and learned a ton from this game. Keep on Rock'n!! 🤘... Always enjoy watching your videos, I have also learned a lot from them as well.

[@ozzysmith4685]

the bit about "My brain is kind of like a goldfish." made me smile and wonder to myself what if Mary Poppins was a Metal Head. much love and respect you rock and I absolutely love your vids. always make me smile and brighten my day. stay rocking my friend, stay rockin.

Stoked to see your take on Rocksmith.. you are as great a teacher as guitarist.

[@adriangravelle1520]

That was fun to watch, as a long time guitar tutor, I too would find something like that on your very first go, a bit hap hazard at full speed! 😁 Could be a good teaching tool for anyone if the quality of the song files are top notch!

[@吉田駆-i9f]

I started playing Rocksmith in 2015, by then I've been playing the guitar for about a year using tabs, and it is way too different, I gave up on Rocksmith within a month...My lil sis started playing Rocksmith from day 1 of her guitar journey and it's totally helped her and she still uses it to this day. Hard to change your basics man, even if it may be flawed

[@Canal_Noir_Film]

Kudos for being such a good sport about this. It's hard because usually you'd be playing the piece from your heart if you know it. Here, you're following. This sort of thing is fantastic if you're learning. It's tricky if you're used to that internal clock. I play keys. I tried a similar app for piano out of curiosity. I know exactly what you just went through. But they do work. This will help a lot of people. Good job!

[@countmein518]

Sophie.. yes I would definitely say you're a pro. About 10 years now. Do you read music 🎶 or your one of those special gifted people who have an ear 👂 ❤😂 for music... that was interesting..but I always say Sophie you are a ROCK 🎸 💙 STAR 🌟.. 🌟. 🌟..and what a great Christmas 🎄 and new year you had..congratulations to you and your lucky soon to be hubby..😢😂😂.I'm happy that you guys found each other. ❤.looking forward to a great new year with you guys..keep on rocking in the free world 🌎.. love from Florida.

Got flashbacks of learning Muse hysteria on rocksmith 2014, with the guitar going straight into the PS3 and the sound running out through to my hi fi via scart to rca lead as the audio never synced properly to the telly otherwise. I feel so old!

[@marcusblackwell2372]

You could play Rock Band with real instruments?

[@GibsonLPfan2024]

@@marcusblackwell2372 Not Rock band, but Rocksmith 2014 was for actual guitar. It is pretty much the same as what Sophie is demo'ing in the vid but was judging the accuracy through the cable signal rather than listening to the output.

Absolutely love Kira Mac's amazing voice!!! Hopefully Kira Mac and Sophie Lloyd will team up for a collaboration because both of you absolutely would slay!!! Kira's voice with Sophie's guitar ( and both Brits) would be absolutely perfect!!!! Here's hoping!!!!

I'm a guitarist, but I used to love guitar hero, I still remember playing Cliffs Of Dover, on hard, and my 15 year old Son, hearing me struggle, comes to the living room, takes the "guitar" from me plays it through at 96% accuracy, He gives me the guitar/controller back, smiles, and walks away. I have Rocksmith as well.

[@TheCocoaDaddy]

Great video! This reminds me of the video of Rush playing "Tom Sawyer" on either Guitar Hero or Rock Band. :) Thanks for posting!

[@IcyTorment]

It's isn't really that the note highway makes it "more fun for beginners." It's that it more directly represents what you're physically doing on the guitar and includes details that can't be represented in tab, as well.

You're such a wonderful teacher 🎉😊

[@OGSomeOne]

I picked up rocksmith, the original game, not long after it was released. I'm a lefty but do most things right handed, because i was taught that way. Guitar is one of those things i have to do left handed. Prior to rock smith i had tried to learn in my teens, but on a right handed guitar. At 30, with rocksmith and a left handed guitar, i was playing, successfully, i.e. 90+% on songs in a month. There are issues with rocksmith and rocksmith 2014, but they are the best self learn utilities on the market. Issues are technical, like display and audio not being 100 percent in sync and noise picking up on the usb cable.

[@jeffd.8917]

Oh thank god you can switch to tabs now. I was dyslexic for weeks after flipping the high and low E strings.

[@playgamescarlos]

Yeah, Rocksmith+ & it's features are tricky, but the more people played it so much & learn lots of it (like tab for instance), they'll get used to it. :) And good video! ^^

[@ryanschindler923]

I can relate, first time i tried this game was before the TAB mode was in, and as someone that grew up on TABS i couldn't do the Guitar Hero note highway stuff. It made me feel like didn't know how to play lol. Now that it has all these features, might be a thing to look back into.

Slow but accurate is better than fast with loads of errors - one of my teaching colleagues drummed (🙃) that into Music students from Y7 and up. Learn the muscle memory first, then add speed later.
