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.

Mapping
Section titled “Mapping”Controller Emulation Mode: ViGEmBus (RPCS3 compatibility)
Section titled “Controller Emulation Mode: ViGEmBus (RPCS3 compatibility)”This is the recommended mode and should not require any mapping. You simply need to assign the Handler, Device, and Device Class/Type.

Controller Emulation Mode: ViGEmBus
This is not suggested as it requires lots of manual mapping. You should instead use ViGEmBus (RPCS3 compatibility).
Bindings
Section titled “Bindings”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 |
Advanced Mapping
Section titled “Advanced Mapping”- 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 Xbox One Rock Band Drums.
- To bind multiple buttons to one RPCS3 button, hold Shift then click on the RPCS3 button you want to assign multiple buttons to.
| RPCS3 | Drums |
|---|---|
| Cross | ![]() |
| Circle | ![]() |
| Square | ![]() |
| Triangle | ![]() |
| R3 | Cymbal Modifier |
| D-Pad: Up | Yellow Cymbal Modifier |
| D-Pad: Down | Blue Cymbal Modifier |
| L3 | Pad Modifier |
| L1 | ![]() |
| R1 | ![]() |
| Cross | ![]() |
| Circle | ![]() |
| Square | ![]() |
| Triangle | ![]() |
| D-Pad | ![]() |
| PS Button | ![]() |

Profile
Section titled “Profile”After downloading the profile,
-
Extract the .7z file.
-
Drag the
input_configsfolder into theconfigsfolder where you have RPCS3 in.
-
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.
