Serious stepping recommendation:
When stepping this kind of song, set a maximum NPS that fits the difficulty curve of your file and use that as a ceiling. Usually when I am stepping guitar solos I say to myself something like, "Okay I'll use dickynced color arrows for slower parts, any crazy guitar shredding that gets faster than 24ths at this BPM, I'll just BS it as 24ths."
A lot of really good files are this way and you'd never know the difference.

Actually, my first guitar solo (Group B) was like this. Stepped all of the guitar solo, then removed one out of every four of the notes where it got fast.

You guys know you don't have to use colour notes right

Fake it and call it old school. As long as it's close enough who cares.

this is terrible advice. if something is stepped as straight 24ths but it's noticeably slower than that then it's super noticeable. afaik this is a unanimous opinion held by FFR judges, so if you want your file to get rekt then by all means step guitar solos inaccurately when you really shouldn't be.

Re: 2nd Official FFR StepCon!

with regards to what trumaestro said, I will say that I don't hold the exact same opinion:

I am alright with a guitar solo being somewhat syncopated to avoid the color notes, but I do listen to the speed of he solo in question and rest assured: if you only used a single rhythm to capture the solo when it speeds up or slows down, you'll likely get some deductions. It is very possible to capture this solo using minimal coloring, but you have to know exactly how to represent it.
