Would it be too much trouble to add support for them?
Basically a third strum button is all that would take to make it happen, im not sure about xbox guitars but for ps3 ones it would be mapped to button 7 which idetifies solo buttons. In button_data.exe language that would be button 54.
It would be nice to start tapping sections without the wonky elbow strum technique ;D

I don't own any guitar with Solo Buttons just the slider bar which I can never figure out how to read decent values from.
What does the solo buttons do different in game?

What are these buttons ? Are they the little buttons near the body of the RBtars ? Those are the fret buttons in question. My understanding is that during a solo section in RB3, you can press these and not have to strum for the hit to count, whereas the normal fret buttons still require a strum for each solo note. |

Sounds fine in principle it just a pain to add a feature like this without having the controller to test with in person. But I'll put it on my list.
Thanks

If you need me to send you any button data, I have a Rock Band guitar that has the solo buttons.

the solo buttons work pretty much like the cymbals from rb2/3 drumkits, each one equals to 2 button presses, the regular button ID + solo button ID(the same for all the solo frets)

David I know this is an old topic but if you still don't have a rb guitar to test with I could keep an eye out for one at the good will if you would want to pay for the shipping I could send you one the shipping shouldn't be more than 6 or 7 bucks as long as you live in america. |

I'm not sure if there's a Goodwill in the UK...
DWSK's in the UK. Shipping over a plastic guitar will not be cost effective. I had to pay over $90USD to get a 3lbs package to Norway. (turns out there's a very high tariff on American candy)

I don't see why they couldn't send some test builds to someone who DOES have an RBtar to test it. Yeah, this thread IS 3 years old, but it's a relatively easy thing to put is (at least, it should be, looking at how JD explained it with the whole 2 inputs kinda thing), I honestly don't get why it hadn't been done yet (outside of the whole no RBtar to test with, like I said, maybe just send a test build to someone who (not me, as I don't) has an RBtar?).

I have a rbtar along with 3 of my friends. It's a big thing for us we love the solo keys. I recently played with assigning button 7 as the strum but that didn't turn out. It would seem that it would be a somewhat trivial task though I'm only a novice coder. Is there any info that I could send that would help with developing this diagnostics, logs, etc. Like I said I have access to a ps3 rb1.

A word of warning for anybody who, like me, has a PS3 WarBeast. The "solo buttons" (so-called) don't work on it. At least, not on Rock Band. So, this function, if ever made to work, may not with the WarBeast.
