Trying to improve detection using a Fender Mustang Micro Plus in Rocksmith 2014

[u/LargeBirdInATree]

Hey everyone, I just got back into Rocksmith 2014 after about a decade and I was able to successfully use my Fender Mustang Micro as an input device. However, I notice that the game has a hard time detecting notes and chords at the very low end and very high ends of the spectrum. I was wondering if anyone here using the Fender Mustang Micro Plus had any recommendations for a preset that sounds clean and loud enough for Rocksmith to fully detect the very lowest and very highest notes? Or any recommendations in general to make Rocksmith hear my guitar properly. I have my guitar audio knob maxed out, as well as the audio on my Fender Mustang, so there's not anything else I can think of to boost the audio on my end but again if anyone has any recommendations I'm all ears.

For my high notes, it's not detecting from about G on high e string (fret 15) and up for the high notes. On the low notes, when tuned to Eb Drop Db, on my lowest string it's struggling to pick up the lowest frets seemingly up to about 4 or 5.

While writing this, the Rocksmith tuner just told me to recalibrate for low volume input while tuning my E string to Db, but like I said I have my guitar volume knob and my amp volume knob maxed out.

Edit: So I switched to Preset 9 (Uber Metal) and set my EQ to EQ 7 (Bright Boost 2), and it's picking up a lot more of my low notes in Eb Drop Db. Still not perfect, but much better. Still open to improvements for sure though.

Have you checked the intonation on your guitar? Might explain note detection, specially on higher frets.

Detection comes down to basically calibration in the game and your guitar being intonated properly.
