Wii #2275 - Rock Band 3 (Europe)

Definitely buying this. Also, are the pro instruments universal, as in they work on PS3, Wii and 360? I'll still buy the keyboard regardless, as I am in need of a MIDI controller, but if they also worked on the PS3, that's just an added bonus

The 6 String Pro guitar is universal, the mustang 102button-er isnt. I think anything which uses the midi adaptor will be universal cus the adaptor isnt console specific, so the madcat instruments (keyboard, mustang, drums) aren't as theyre just wireless controllers

What is the best IOS you can use with an USB loader to run the game, using a SDHC card and an USB mic ?

I think I've tried every possible combination for base IOSes used with Hermes v5.1 and cIOSX rev20b :
- IOS37 or IOS38 : SDHC card not recognized
- IOS57 : USB mic not recognized
- IOS56 : SDHC OK + USB mic OK, but with a very annoying problem, the controls are lagging sometimes, as described here by other people :

I'm using CFG Loader v59 [222].
Thanks in advance for your help.

None of the instruments are universal, and neither is the MIDI adapter.

The Mustang, Keyboard and Drums aren't universal as theyre just fancy shaped wireless controllers like previous RB intruments. From what i've read, the 6 string will be universal. Thats what ive read, personally i can't see how the 6 string is universal when it has console specific buttons on the body.

edit. this is what the wiki says, taken from eurogamer.
"The Squier will be console neutral, producing MIDI output and requiring players to also purchase the MadCatz MIDI adapter specific for their console."

Will this still work with my Guitar Hero 3 controller?

Mine worked.

EDIT:
My RB1 instruments (Guitar, drum and mic) aren't recognized. My GH3 controller is.
I run the game via Neogamma, since I can't run it with my hardmod (error 002).
How can I get my other instruments to work?

I'm using the latest USBLoaderGX with all the Ioses updated, and it will not recognize my 8 GB SDHC card...

I know that CFG Loader vs. USBLoaderGX is NOT the issue, as the game is the deterrent from allowing/not allowing it..

Are you completely sure you are able to use an SDHC card for this game? What region is your Wii? PAL or NTSC?

Thanks

I can. I have even downloaded and played songs.

People who are having problems with SDHC and/or instruments: Did you have RB2/Beatles backups working properly?

Yes. Rock Band 2 only supports SD card, but Rock Band 3 supports SDHC, and using cIOSX rev20b (with IOS56 or IOS57 base), my Sandisk SDHC 16 Gb Class 2 is working perfectly (but not working with Hermes, whatever the IOS used as a base). I transferred my RB2 DLC on this SDHC card, and I can play it in RB3.

Rock Band 2 backup was working properly with Hermes v5, but the game wasn't SDHC-compatible, so I didn't need a cIOS working with SDHC.

That's strange. I have a 206710 error when trying to access the PAL store with my PAL Wii (I also tried yesterday and it was the same). What did you use to launch the game ?

Yes, but I could run RB2 with my hardmod. I think using the softmod for this one is causing problems.

Cfg USB Loader, 249 r19 base 37.

Has anyone been able to get their USB keyboard to work. The dongle lights up in the Wii start menu, but when you launch the game, no light comes on. Is there a trick to get it to work?

I really wanted to try out the keyboard that I just bought.

you are supposed to use a midi adapter, i don't think there is support for usb keyboards

djpookie2000 · Oct 27, 2010

I bought the official Rock Band 3 keyboard.

oh that sucks. i thought the wireless keyboard was gonna be direct, not require a usb dongle. that's kinda lame.

Thanks for your answer, that's OK for me now. The store wasn't available in my country before today.

ziddey · Oct 28, 2010

hmm why no ntsc release yet.

been running pal version on usblgx with hermesv5 cios37. ntsc rb2 songs work fine.

so going with cios56 would allow sdhc? no other improvements? I'm keeping regular sd for compatibility with other games.

I see the mustang is scheduled for 11/22. Anyone know when the squier is coming out?
