PlayStation 4 Rock Band 4 Drums

Note

RPCN Menus (for sending or accepting online invites) may cause a softlock. You will need an alternative input method to navigate these menus, such as a [typing keyboard or a gamepad.]

• Requires downloading and running [clipper].
  • Clipper requires installing [ViGEmBus].
• You need a Bluetooth receiver to connect these drums to your computer.
  • Latency may be an issue depending on your Bluetooth receiver. This may make it difficult to calibrate.
• Works with or without the Pro Cymbal expansions.
  • Make sure to configure which cymbals are connected within Rock Band 3.
    • Menu > Options > Drum Options

How do I map my drums?

Click on the Pads icon at the top of RPCS3.

It’s suggested to create a new configuration by clicking Add Configuration at the top right of the Pads window.
This is so you can change configuration profiles in case you want to play other games.

Follow the instructions and/or match the assignments below.

Pad Information

Handlers	Devices
XInput	XInput Pad

Device Class	Device Subtype
Drums	Rock Band Pro

Setting Up

1. Install [ViGEmBus] if you don’t have it already.

   

2. Download the latest version of [clipper.exe] from the “Assets” section.

   

Usage

1. Synchronize your drums to your computer’s Bluetooth receiver.

   

2. Double click Clipper file to open it.

   

3. A command line window will open. Make sure it stays running in the background. You can minimize it if you want to.

   

Mapping

By default, XInput has most things bound correctly. You only need to remap the following:

RPCS3	XInput	Drums
R1
L3		Pad Modifier
R3		Cymbal Modifier

• Rock Band Drums send multiple button presses out at once. For example, a Red pad will send B and Right Stick Click (which translates to “Circle” and “L3”.) Keep in mind these are needed to the emulator to tell your cymbals apart.
  • It’s strongly suggested to bind an Xbox controller like the Mapping screenshot below then swapping the Device to your PS4 Rock Band Drums.

Profile

[Download Profile]

How do I use profiles?

Caution

This is not recommended if you’re using multiple controllers at once.

After downloading the profile,

1. Extract the .7z file.
2. Drag the input_configs folder into the configs folder where you have RPCS3 in.

3. After that, you can select the profile in the Pads menu.

Most of the time, these controller profiles should work out of the box. If they don’t, try changing the controller listed in Devices, next to the Refresh button until it receives an input. You can edit this while the game is running.

Advanced Mapping

• To bind multiple buttons to one RPCS3 button, hold Shift then click on the RPCS3 button you want to assign multiple buttons to.
