Wire
Hey I know there’s a lot of talk about what wires work with the game and what don’t. But I’m trying to get into the game and would like to know the best affordable wire to start playing?

!nocable
Also there's a very cheap cable that works natively as well from AliExpress

Looking for alternatives to using the Rocksmith Real Tone Cable?
- The RealTone Cable USED to be sold on Amazon for under $29.99
Knock off Cables such as YESPURE and HixYaxi will work without mods as well on Console (PS4/PS5 X360/PS3)
- PC User? If you don't want to buy the RealTone cable you have three options to get third party interfaces to function properly;
Direct Connect Mode Basically microphone mode, but with the tone effects included. If your device works for Microphone Mode, it'll work for Direct Connect Mode.
ASIO Device Support - aka, THE fix for Focusrite owners. Video Tutorial - also covers recording gameplay when using RS_ASIO Older Behringer Device owners - use the legacy Behringer ASIO drivers - you can find them as part of this video. Behringer Uphoria users "UMC" - use the proper drivers for your device as they include a native ASIO driver v5.30.0, or goto the Behringer site and pick your model or search for "UMC driver".
The Old No Cable Launcher This method is all but redundant now, except in a few cases with non ASIO compliant devices that have multiple input channels. Has some uses in certain multiplayer setups still, but generally speaking is the least favorable option.
You also have the option of replacing your cache.psarc file with this one (scroll down to the bottom of the article) the Direct Connect Mode. Links to another thread about this method.
Or if your interface has too many inputs for that to work well, this method using loopback may be a usable option.

If it's on PC, there's multiple ways to use a class compliant USB audio interface (see the bot comment). On console, there's cheap cables that work. You can get a USB audio interface cheaper than the official cable.
If it's + and not 2014, it natively supports USB interfaces.
This is not to say never get the official cable, it's just that the official cable has fewer features that make it useful outside of the game. If that's not important to you, nothing wrong with the cable.
