Just to add a note, you have to do all songs on your system. I did 11 on my friends and 8 on mine. I have all the Secret Note achievements, but not Treasure Hunt. Now I have 11 more to go :(

Also make sure to do them all on the same instrument. It glitches otherwise and you have to play back through the ones you did on a different instrument.

It makes more sense to put these songs in achievement order instead of alphabetical order. Because if you already have #4 and #8 for example, you wouldn't know which songs to skip from your list above.

One more rant: Seriously and undoubted the most stupid Game/achievement EVER !! I did nothing for this except stare at a mic near a fan and listening to shitmusic for an hour and I got 490 + 19x5 = 585 GS , ranking nr 1 on my best achievement list!! Who invented this should be banned for life.

I did 8 in one sitting since I had 11 before. Looks like I'm gonna need to do the other 11 on beginner vocals too :(

Does this REALLY deserve a 687 TA rating. Everyone must realise that's the highest TA rating for a Guitar Hero/Rock Band achievement out there, when it does clearly not even reach the top 100 hardest achievements for a Guitar Hero/Rock Band game.

The game doesn't save after each song in a setlist, so if you exit the game before the setlist is finished (or if you don't quit out of the setlist first), you'll have to redo all of them.

Doing what F3arIn0culum above me said worked! I did a beginner on vocal and went quickplay with all the songs in one go and got the achievement after it had previously not unlocked.

I could never use the fan technique even if nobody would notice I had. There's just no pure joy in earning such a big achievement if you didn't even put the effort into it!

This achievement glitched for me too. I set up a play list with the 19 songs, but went to play another game after 2. I came back and finished the rest of the songs after and got all the secret notes achievements but no treasure hunter.
I tried numerous methods to make it pop but in the end I cleared my system cache and set up the 19 song play list again. After the first 2 songs had finished that I had left the game before the achievement popped.

I was playing earlier today (about an hour ago) and was trying to get it and it didn't pop even though I had all the secret notes.
What I did was I cleared my system cache (I doubt this is necessary but I'm mentioning it anyway)
I normally play Expert, I played the game normally waaaaay back when I originally got it and I got 4 of the 19 secret notes.
I went on it again today and was going to get the others because I remembered the achievement gives you 490 points and did every song on Easy. I got all the Secret Note ones but I didnt get the one for getting all of them so I figured it is bound by the same difficulty and I was right.

In order to get the achievement you need to play all the songs (in whatever order you may like) in the same game mode (I picked quickplay) and make sure you hit all the secret notes and that you are playing it all on the same difficulty.
Now, there is no way of knowing exactly which ones that are the secret notes so people say that its best to 100% all songs, however, I missed like 3 notes on each because I am not used to Easy and find it very difficult as I normally play Expert, and still got the achievement so don't freak out if you miss one or two notes.

If you would like to unlock this achievement and all 19 of the Secret Notes achievements in the order the achievements are numbered, here is the list:

Secret Notes 1: "Beautiful Soul" - Jesse McCartney
Secret Notes 2: "Black Cat" - Janet Jackson
Secret Notes 3: "Honky Tonk Women" - The Rolling Stones
Secret Notes 4: "Take What You Take" - Lily Allen
Secret Notes 5: "Like Whoa" - Aly & AJ
Secret Notes 6: "She Will Be Loved" - Maroon 5
Secret Notes 7: "Let's Dance"- David Bowie
Secret Notes 8: "Bring Me to Life" - Evanescence
Secret Notes 9: "Lips of an Angel" - Hinder
Secret Notes 10: "Love is a Battlefield" - Pat Benatar
Secret Notes 11: "Don't Speak" - No Doubt
Secret Notes 12: "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" - Marvin Gaye
Secret Notes 13: "Wannabe" - Spice Girls
Secret Notes 14: "Y.M.C.A." - Village People
Secret Notes 15: "So Yesterday" - Hilary Duff
Secret Notes 16: "Ocean Avenue" - Yellowcard
Secret Notes 17: "Dirty Little Secret" - The All-American Rejects
Secret Notes 18: "Oh, Pretty Woman" - Roy Orbison
Secret Notes 19: "Kung Fu Fighting" - Carl Douglas


To make this easier, connect a regular Xbox 360 controller (i.e. the one you use to play Halo and Call of Duty games) and a microphone (an Xbox 360 headset will also work, but will require an in-game setting change to work). Play quickplay and set your difficulty to BEGINNER. Create a setlist in the order noted above. Before you start playing, turn on a fan at the highest setting and place the microphone in front of it. This is called the "fan trick" as it is NOT necessary to hit the correct pitch on beginner difficulty. As long as the microphone is picking up any kind of sound, the game will count it as "singing". It is then possible to FC (full combo) all 19 songs, continuing the phrase streak throughout each song from beginning to end. You will also unlock Fevered Pitch in Band Hero (100% a song as a vocalist) in doing so.

NOTE: If you are playing a setlist, you will need change to the next song on the list manually by pressing cn_A on the controller until you have finished them all.

For this achievement you need to hit all the notes during a certain section in a number of songs, you can do this on any instrument as each instrument has it's own section of notes for the achievements, thankfully though, you only need to do it on one instrument, the same thing goes for difficulty, each difficulty has it's own section of notes for the achievement and you only need to do it once on any difficulty to unlock the achievement.

Now the problem is that the sections are unmarked and no-one really knows for certain what or where the sections are, the best way to go for this is to try and complete the song without missing a single note, that will ensure you get the achievement, so play on a difficulty/instrument combination that you're able to full combo and you'll get the achievement.

Alternatively you could use the beginner vocals/mic fan exploit to get all the other achievements, if you have a microphone/headset and a fan you can just leave the mic leaning against the fan while it's on and the game will register it as sound input and you'll be able full combo every song without actually doing anything.

Lastly, for this specific achievement you need to play these songs, I'll link them in so that you can use them as a checklist, if they're green you have them, if they're red/pink you still need them;

I have no idea, the only thing I can think of is that it didn't save perhaps? So you still have the achievement but not the data which would stop this from unlocking.

I don't have a fan but can guarantee it works by resting the microphone on a laptop over the speakers. Apart from making sure the song doesn't end mid way through a Band Hero song, it is a sure fire way to get the achievements.

Plus you can listen to any song you want this way :D

You CAN mix and match instruments difficulty levels on this. I’ve seen on some sites that ALL have to be done on one instrument one difficulty. I got the separate 5 point achievements on lead & bass guitar and the mic and it still popped when I finished “So Yesterday" by Hillary Duff.

You can actually earn this w/o the fan trick pretty easy, IMO.

I found the easiest way to do this is on Beginner difficulty and create a setlist in the order written down below;
"Beautiful Soul" - Jesse McCartney
"Black Cat" - Janet Jackson
"Bring Me to Life" - Evanescence
"Dirty Little Secret" - The All-American Rejects
"Don't Speak" - No Doubt
"Honky Tonk Women" - The Rolling Stones
"I Heard It Through the Grapevine" - Marvin Gaye
"Kung Fu Fighting" - Carl Douglas
"Let's Dance"- David Bowie
"Like Whoa" - Aly & AJ
"Lips of an Angel" - Hinder
"Love is a Battlefield" - Pat Benatar
"Ocean Avenue" - Yellowcard
"Oh, Pretty Woman" - Roy Orbison
"She Will Be Loved" - Maroon 5
"So Yesterday" - Hilary Duff
"Take What You Take" - Lily Allen
"Wannabe" - Spice Girls
"Y.M.C.A." - Village People

You can use a fan and let it do the work for you but it certainly isn't necessary. Make sure you do this all on one console/save and in a single sitting otherwise it may not work.

Go to this thread for the secret of the "Secret Notes". Credits to steve36ty.
If you're following the instructions for Shine, you will naturally play each song and FC'ed them because you're on the mic, so you will unlock each Secret note achievement to each corresponding song.

The 19 songs needed for all Secret Notes trophies in alphabetical order is below:

  • "Beautiful Soul" - Jesse McCartney
  • "Black Cat" - Janet Jackson
  • "Bring Me to Life" - Evanescence
  • "Dirty Little Secret" - The All-American Rejects
  • "Don't Speak" - No Doubt
  • "Honky Tonk Women" - The Rolling Stones
  • "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" - Marvin Gaye
  • "Kung Fu Fighting" - Carl Douglas
  • "Let's Dance"- David Bowie
  • "Like Whoa" - Aly & AJ
  • "Lips of an Angel" - Hinder
  • "Love is a Battlefield" - Pat Benatar
  • "Ocean Avenue" - Yellowcard
  • "Oh, Pretty Woman" - Roy Orbison
  • "She Will Be Loved" - Maroon 5
  • "So Yesterday" - Hilary Duff
  • "Take What You Take" - Lily Allen
  • "Wannabe" - Spice Girls
  • "Y.M.C.A." - Village People


The songs can be completed in either Quickplay or Career mode but to minimize your trouble and playing time, I would seriously recommend that you place a microphone in front of a table fan and let the game play by itself on these 19 songs in Career mode on Vocals-Beginner difficulty as I had to replay some of the songs since I did not unlock some secret notes even on 99% Bass Easy mode.

To unlock certain songs in Career mode, you will have to go get enough stars in each venue to unlock a new venue with new songs in it. For more information on how to progress through career mode, please read below.
