TV CALIBRATION
Even the most novice musician should be able to pick up and play Rock Band™ Metal Track Pack™ right out of the box. In some cases, particularly with HDTV systems, the audio and video may play at different times, making it difficult to play the right note at the right time. If you are ready to blame your TV for your less-than-stellar musicianship, try calibrating your system. MANUAL CALIBRATION

2. Each time you hear a drum beat, press the directional button➡/strum/hit the green pad in time with the beat you hear.
3. Proceed to Step 2: VIDEO CALIBRATION. When you see the needle hit either side of the meter, press the directional button➡/strum/hit the green pad in time with the needle.
4. Press the directional button➡. Your system is now calibrated. Test it out!
MANUALLY SET NUMBERS
If you can't get an ideal calibration using Manual Calibration, try setting your calibration numbers by hand. Select SET LAG MANUALLY from the Audio Calibration and Video Calibration screens.
Once you've gone through all the steps, you might try testing your work in Quickplay or Practice mode to see if you've gotten the calibration right. If it's still not perfect, try calibrating again.
