Shiftwindow doesn't work

Issues fixed

Audio Latency

Using your motherboard's onboard sound rather than an internal sound card is recommended for reduced latency
Rocksmith's audio latency is highly dependent on values set within the Rocksmith.ini. Modifying this file is almost always necessary for an optimal experience.
Instructions
There are also a few settings outside of Rocksmith that need to be adjusted to allow Audio Exclusivity and other settings to work properly.
