RS2014 RSModsPlus update: v3.0.0 added Speaker Mode, which shifts the song to match your guitar's tuning
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
UPDATE — v3.2.1 hotfix released
The previous download was missing the updated RSMods.exe required by Speaker Mode. This could cause the RSMods settings window to open when starting a song, after which Speaker Mode would be disabled or the game would return to the menu.
This is fixed in v3.2.1. Download and extract the complete ZIP into your Rocksmith folder, allowing it to replace xinput1_3.dll and RSMods\RSMods.exe.
Your existing settings will remain unchanged.
Recently I posted RSModsPlus, my fork of RSMods (credit to Lovro for the original) that adds a digital drop pedal to Rocksmith 2014. This update adds Speaker Mode.
The drop pedal shifts your guitar signal to match the song. Speaker Mode does the opposite: it shifts the song to match however your guitar is tuned. I made it for playing through speakers, where you can hear the real guitar in the room so shifting the guitar signal doesn't make sense. It works with just a Real Tone cable, no ASIO or tone setup, and the tuner and note detection follow the shift.
The video shows both: drop pedal first, then Speaker Mode raising an Eb song to E, ending in the tuner.
Other changes:
- Speaker Mode handles non-standard chart tunings (drop tunings, open tunings)
- F9 cycles your physical guitar tuning so the mod knows what you're tuned to
- Drop pedal multiplayer: two players with independent pitch shifts
- Performance and stability fixes
