MYTABS_LAUNCH_BROWSER=trueA few months ago, I saw a music game called Rocksmith 2014 Remastered on sale on Steam. I bought it, grabbed my brother's abandoned bass, and started playing.
I had 100+ hours in the game, and I loved it. However, I started to realize that I was just following the screen and hitting notes, I cannot actually do anything outside the game. So I decided to actually learn to play bass, learn how to read the tab.
So I found many tools online such as MuseScore, Soundslice. Eventually, I subscribed to Songsterr, I absolutely love it, especial for its UI/UX. However, it is not perfect, many songs don't sync
with youtube/audio source correctly, the cursor is confusing due to out-fo-sync issues. There is no manual sync feature. I have also looked into other tools like Soundslice, Guitar Pro 8, which offer
sync tools, but they are hard to use. Since most of my favourite songs follow the bpm perfectly, I just want something that able to sync the first bar, and good to go.
Plus, I am not a fan of subscription models.
After searching, I could not find any open source projects that is similar to Songsterr, so I decided to make one for myself to learn bass.
Don't forget to ⭐ this repo if you like it!
The demo tab Hare no Hi ni (ハレの日に) by Reira Ushio (汐れいら), which is the ending song from the anime "The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity" (薫る花は凛と咲く).
Beautiful song, and I love the bass line.
It was AI generated on Songsterr, and the bass tab was inaccurate, so I fixed it by my ear.
Since I am a beginner, I re-arranged some parts (fewer slide) to make it easier to play. Hope you enjoy it too.
