How to setup PC Keyboards on RPCS3.
NOTES
- To bind multiple keys to one button, hold Shift then click on the button you want to assign multiple keys to.
- You will need to set the “Stick Multiplier” and “Stick Interpolation” for Left and Right to
0.90
for whammy to function correctly.
- To play Guitar/Bass/Keys/Drums parts on a Controller (Padtar), you will need Rock Band 3 Deluxe.
- You can also rebind your controller within Deluxe.
Menu > Options > Deluxe Settings > Advanced > Controller > Pad Button Remap
