Hello all! Itching to jump into YARG with all my old RB gear for 360. I have a couple chinese wireless adapters, but they don't seem to work for instruments.
How are you guys using your wireless RB gear? Is there a particular adapter that works well now that the official one is discontinued?

try manually installing the drivers: https://youtu.be/VxIO-4abefE?t=65

if your instruments still don't sync to the adapter, it's probably fake - an adapter that only works with the controller it came with

If you've got an Xbox 360 controller, but no longer use it with an Xbox 360 console, for the prices of a small USB receiver, you can transform it into a cheap Xbox 360 gamepad.

I walk through the steps for the driver, but end up with an error code 10.

I asked Amazon's AI about the product I got, and it stated the generic ones can't work with RB instrimunts anyway. Are people using the generic ones sucessfully?

From the AI:
The Mcbazel Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver is designed for standard Xbox 360 wireless controllers only. Customers report no compatibility with Rock Band 3 instruments — reviewers specifically mention that drums, guitars, and microphones from Rock Band won't pair with this receiver.

Why the incompatibility: Rock Band 3 instruments use a different wireless protocol than standard Xbox 360 controllers, so a generic receiver won't work with them.

and the ai is lying, instruments use the same 360 wireless protocol

I found an official one on ebay, going to return the knockoff and try the legit version.
Thanks for getting eyes on this with me
