  • Xbox One/Series controllers can be connected via USB or wirelessly via Bluetooth/Wireless Receiver. For Bluetooth, you need a Bluetooth receiver to connect to your computer. Earlier Xbox One controllers require a Microsoft Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10.

  • Linux users can install [xone kernel drivers] to use Xbox One peripherals.
  • There is no binding file as all controls are default.
  • This controller auto-strums like god intended.
  • To play Guitar/Bass/Keys/Drums parts on a Controller (Padtar), you will need Rock Band 3 Deluxe.
