Just Singing?

Just Singing?

Using a mic, sing along and achieve Nice Singing

12.3%

How to unlock the Just Singing? achievement in Rocksmith - Definitive Guide

Pick a song with chord arrangements (I used Freebird). Then plug in a mic (Rockband or Rapstar works). You'll know it's working when you see words in the background pertaining to your singing (i.e. 'OK Singing', 'Great singing').

Achievement pops at the end of the song.

Having some problems with this. I am getting "great singing" but not "nice singing to appear." I have song rehearsal, performance and event. I have tried simply setting the mic against the TV monitor. In all situations I have seen the "great singing" appear but no achievement. Can anyone say for sure if it was rehearsal, performance or event and if you in fact saw "nice singing" instead of "great or Ok singing?"

I can also confirm that the kinect and headset do not work. For Playstation, the eye works.

Just an additional comment about this solution - you must have your cable plugged into a guitar because you have to tune at the beginning to advance the performance. But you don't have to play a single note on the guitar. Just sing the song & at the end "Achievement Unlocked".

Achievement "glitched" for me, I had a mic plugged in while going for D-licious and after i was done tuning the guitar D-licious popped and right after Just Singing? popped as well. I was kinda disappointed because i wanted to sing :[ My take on it is that the game thinks the tuning is a "song" so when its done it counted the mic. however there was no" nice singing" message anywhere, so if any one else could verify would be helpful.

Such a random achievement! lol Thumbs up from me. Do you think they threw this in there so a friend watching you play could have something to do and sing along?

I've never owned a rockband or guitar hero game; what's the cheapest alternative for this achievement? Generic USB mic? Looks like amazon has the logitech rockband / guitar-hero mic for $18.50 ... is that as good as it gets?

@ spxyu02 & Joao: I don't know if those will work. I borrowed a mic from a buddy of mine. I'm sorry if that didn't help. If those methods work for you, I'll edit this solution to indicate that they do. Good luck and happy cheevo hunting.

Any update on whether something like a kinect mic / generic headset mic / turtle beach mic will work for this achievement...

Turtle Beach and Standard Headset don't appear to be working for me. I might have to try and find a friend who has a Rockband mic and see if that works.....unless I'm just that bad of a singer :P

Oh crap do I feel stupid. So, I only had this and the mulit-player achievement to get and decided to first do the multi-player. I hooked up the two guitar cables and the mic too. As I set up the multiplayer, I heard a pop and assumed it was the multiplayer one. Then I tried for HOURS in different singing configurations, deleting saves and checking other forums but my score for the game remained the same. Finally, I happened to notice my homepage here showed "Just Singing? had been awarded the day before and not the multiplayer." WEIRD

It turns out yes, this does unlock in tuning sections of the game like GWARRRRR had said it would.

6 years after posting my first question about this achievement, I finally got around to trying this with a used Disney's High School Musical (logitech) USB mic, for the Wii originally I think, bought shamefully from Gamestop all those years ago. And while I didn't think I was seeing the singing commentary on the screen, the achievement did pop at the end of a song rehearsal and I could even hear my own horrendous singing of "Where Is My Mind?" in the background of the song replay afterwards.

Not a very useful comment, but one I felt I had to make in triumph after doing this stupid peripheral achievement.

My microphone wouldn't pick anything up even after a solid forty minutes of trying different songs at a loud volume. Finally, I turned my speakers up so loud that I thought I'd get a noise complaint, and the achievement popped after a performance of "My Hero". So, don't hesistate to really crank the audio up. 💀

spxyu02 you are a legend. My wife bought a high school musical mic and I had no idea if it would work. I put it on the tv while a song played and it gave me the achievement at the end!! Good riddance to extra peripheral achievements

No idea how this worked, but I forgot I still had my Rock Band mic plugged in. Was playing a song with one of my friends, neither of us were singing and the mic was on the couch. The achievement popped at the end of the song.

I'm thinking maybe my sound system was loud enough for the mic to pick it up, and it thought the game's singing was my own? Will try it again with a generic profile, would appreciate any other input.

Can confirm that cranking up the volume (and optionally using a music audio preset on your TV, sound system, etc.) with a mic connected to the console will trigger the achievement unlock.

This is also very easy, but requires you to have a mic. The mic can be any USB mic; Rock Band and Guitar Hero mics work well. Also, Playstation Eye cameras will also do the trick. Just have the mic plugged in and sing. That's all.

Hook up a mic and sing during a song to get this. It must be a Rock Band/Guitar Hero/SingStar mirophone - headsets don't work here. If you play an actual song for this, you don't have to hit any notes on the guitar to qualify for this achievement. 

Another alternative is to hook up a mic during a tuning section, because those count as songs for this achievement for some reason.

You need to connect a microphone from Guitar Hero or Playstation Eye, for example. The microphone from the headset did not work for me, it interferes with the guitar (the guitar must also be connected). We load any song in any mode and sing karaoke. You don't have to play the guitar. With a minimum of effort (the words need to flash blue when sung), a trophy is awarded after completing the song. A simple song, for example, the same Satisfaction.

Singing is also not necessary. With the microphone turned on, you need to “survive” any song to the end.

A bluetooth headset helped me get the trophy, so you can try it.
