Rocksmith+ is a subscription service that teaches players how to play guitar and bass through their favorite songs. The title builds upon the award-winning Rocksmith method, which has helped almost five million people learn how to play guitar.

Compatible with acoustic, electric, and bass guitars, Rocksmith+ will start with thousands of songs and grow to millions more in the future, within genres spanning from rock, classic, indie, alternative, hip-hop, pop, metal, country, Latin, R&B, and more. At launch, Rocksmith+ will have a variety of authentic arrangements that represent songs the way the artists originally played them, and all songs in the library will be playable with chord charts for players to hum and strum to.

Users can take advantage of an entire suite of new and improved practice tools including Riff Repeater, wherein they can directly practice specific riffs in their favorite songs; and Adaptive Difficulty, wherein Rocksmith+ dynamically adjusts to a guitar player's skill level while they play. These tools are designed to give guitar players control over their learning journey.

Rocksmith+ is also collaborating with major music instrument partners Gibson, Epiphone, Kramer, Ibanez, Ernie Ball, Ernie Ball Music Man, Marshall, Orange, Mesa/Boogie, Roland, Boss and Electro-Harmonix.

Rocksmith+ is expanding from guitar learning with the addition of a new instrument: piano. You can start learning piano for free during the Rocksmith+ piano beta, available now for PC. 

Register now for the piano PC beta* - the first 5,000 new Rocksmith+ users who register will receive one month free of Rocksmith+ and all current subscribers automatically get access to the piano beta.

Like Rocksmith+’s guitar learning features, the piano beta lets you play hit songs from popular artists, get personalized real-time feedback, and enjoy practice tools that you can control. The Rocksmith+ piano PC beta sign up period for new users ends on November 10. The full piano experience will launch this winter.

Rocksmith+ also just added top hit songs from Coldplay, Misfits, Fear Factory, Lily Allen, and more to its growing library of songs. No copycats or soundalikes - only the songs you love.

Rocksmith+ is the only subscription service that offers interactive music learning using official song masters and powerful real-time feedback. In addition, users will receive access to free online videos to learn about proper technique, music theory, gear, instrument care, and more.

Users can play with an acoustic guitar or an electric instrument and amp using the Rocksmith+ Connect mobile app, which offers phone-as-mic technology. By pairing their mobile device with their PC or console, the on-board microphone can track their guitar – allowing them to play with no additional gear needed. Rocksmith+ is also compatible with consoles using the Rocksmith Real Tone Cable. For PC users, Rocksmith+ is compatible using the Real Tone Cable or existing guitar interfaces on electric and acoustic-electric instruments.

Key Features:

• Players will be able to learn how to play guitar through master recordings of songs from Sony Music, Universal and more, and will have access to an expanding library of more than 5,000 songs at launch, with new songs added each week from artists such as The Clash, Juan Gabriel, Alicia Keys, Santana, and more. Rocksmith+ will feature music across a variety of genres such as Rock, Metal, Pop, Latin, Hip-Hop and Indie from countries all around the world.
• Rocksmith+ features a suite of new and improved practice tools to give players a fun, personalized experience at any skill level. For example, the Adaptive Difficulty feature will dynamically adjust to a player’s skill level while they play, introducing new notes and chords as the player progresses. The technology adapts to players’ skill levels by measuring the total sum of their abilities, rather than their performance for an individual song.   
• Rocksmith+ introduces the free Rocksmith+ Connect app, a phone-as-a-mic feature on iOS and Android that will let players follow along to Rocksmith+ on PC. The app works with acoustic instruments or electric instruments played through an amp or the Rocksmith Real Tone cable, sold separately. Players will benefit from Rocksmith+’s note detection and real-time feedback without the need for any peripherals. Additionally, the Rocksmith+ Connect app also works as an accurate, professional grade guitar tuner. For more information on the Rocksmith Connect app, please visit: rocksmith.com/tuner.
