Mad Catz Rock Band 3 Handbuch Seite 4

FAQ
QUESTION: Is the Keyboard Controller backwards-compatible?
Answer: The Rock Band Keyboard Controller is not supported by previous Rock Band titles.
QUESTION: Is it okay to leave my wireless receivers plugged in even when the Wii console is off?
Answer: It's best to remove your wireless receivers from the USB connectors when not in use.
QUESTION: How long should I hold down the sync buttons?
Answer: The sync buttons only require a quick press and release in order to start the sync process. As soon as you see the LED state change, you can
release pressure on the button.
QUESTION: What is that black port on the side of the Keyboard?
Answer: The Rock Band Keyboard Controller has built-in MIDI functionality that allows this peripheral to act as a MIDI controller when used with other
compatible devices. Please see www.madcatz.com/FAQ/rockband for more information about this feature and to download the MIDI manual.
PROBLEM: My Keyboard Controller keeps disconnecting.
Solution 1: Ensure there are no 2.4 GHz wireless devices around that could potentially interfere with your Rock Band 3 Keyboard Controller. Common
offending devices include cordless phones, Wi-Fi routers, and microwaves.
Solution 2: Make sure that the batteries are not jarring loose during play. A thin layer of duct tape, cardboard, or weather-stripping foam on the inside of
the battery door can help secure the batteries during insane solos.
PROBLEM: Overdrive does not engage when I tilt my Keyboard Controller.
Solution: Because it is designed to be played either on a level surface or while standing, there is no traditional "tilt" functionality in the Rock Band Key-
board. You can engage Overdrive by pressing the Sustain button, or by using any Rock Band kick pedal; simply plug the pedal into the 3.5 mm Overdrive
jack on the side of your Keyboard Controller and depress the pedal to engage.
PROBLEM: I cannot tell if my Keyboard Controller is synced to the Wii Console.
Solution: Follow the graphical instructions on the previous pages to sync your Keyboard Controller to the Wii Console. Remember, a successful sync
should result in a steady blue LED on the wireless receiver. If Rock Band 3 is running, the system will also assign the Keyboard Controller a player
number and illuminate the appropriate LED. If the system is still in the Wii HOME Menu, the LEDs will remain blank until the game is started.
PROBLEM: My Keyboard Controller isn't working in the Wii HOME Menu and it hasn't assigned me a controller number.
Solution: While the Keyboard Controller will sync up to the wireless receiver while the Wii console is in the Wii HOME Menu, you will need an active Wii
Remote to select Rock Band 3 and enter the game. Once the game is up and running, the Wii Console will assign your connected Keyboard Controller a
player number (1-4). At this time, you can put the Wii Remote away and navigate the in-game menus with the Keyboard Controller.
PROBLEM: The game is asking me for a microphone. I don't want to be the singer.
Solution: If you want to play keyboard parts, sync the Keyboard Controller to your Wii Console, and then use it to navigate the in-game menus.
Since the Wii Remote is used to control the vocal players' settings, when one is connected to the Wii console, the game will look for a microphone.
You should also be sure that the peripheral you are using is compatible with the software title you are playing. Please see www.madcatz.com/FAQ/rockband
for more information.
PROBLEM: I have multiple peripherals and I cannot plug them all in – there are only two ports!
Solution: Many of our Rock Band peripherals have wireless receivers that also have USB pass-throughs that will allow you to attach multiple
peripherals using only two USB connectors. Most powered USB hubs will expand your capabilities. Please remember to never "daisy chain" a Rock
Band wireless receiver that has a USB pass-through into another Rock Band hub with a USB pass-through. For examples of popular setups, please visit

You understand that your rights as a consumer may vary depending on where you reside and the local laws and regulations that apply, and that some or all of your rights may be different or some rights
or portions of the warranty may not apply to you. If you are unsure or have any questions about your rights, you should consult your own advisors or local consumer groups to determine the laws and
regulations that may apply to you.
If you are a resident of Australia or New Zealand, certain exclusions from this warranty apply, including exclusions of terms, conditions, warranties and terms set forth herein or implied by statute,
general law or custom of trade or usage, except for any "Non-excludable Condition" as that term is defined below and construed under the Australian Trade Practices Act 1974 ("TPA") or, in the case

to you for any act or omission, whether arising in contract or tort, including negligence, or otherwise in connection with the controller or our agreement is hereby disclaimed and excluded. For these
purposes, "Non-excludable Condition" means any implied warranty, condition or guarantee the exclusion of which would contravene, in the case of Australian consumers, the TPA or, in the case of
consumers in New Zealand, the CGA or in either case, that would cause all or any part of any exclusion or limitation of liability or remedy to be void. For any breach of a Non-excludable Condition (other
than one implied by Section 69 of the TPA in Australia), your remedies are limited and, at our option, our liability is limited to either resupplying, replacing or repairing the controller or, at our option, paying
the cost of doing any of these.
You may have certain rights as a consumer with respect to the merchant or retail establishment where you purchased this controller. The exclusions, restrictions, terms and conditions set forth herein do

OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NO OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY NATURE OR KIND SHALL APPLY OR SHALL BE BINDING UPON OR OBLIGATE

• Use only fresh AA standard alkaline batteries.
• Replace all used batteries at the same time and with the same type of batteries.
• Be sure to replace the batteries correctly by matching the + and – as shown in the instruction manual and the controller's battery compartment. Never insert batteries backwards.

• Do not carry batteries in your pocket or purse.
• Do not remove the battery label.
• Check your local laws, contact the proper government authorities or look under the Government listings of your local area directory to see if there are any special battery disposal instructions or

manufacturer's directions to avoid injury and damage and to comply with the laws and regulations protecting health, safety and the environment.
• There have been some studies which are considered by some to raise questions about the potential health effects of electrical and electronic equipment and some of the hazardous substances they
may contain. Always consult your own health care professionals who can advise you regarding your own health care needs in relation to use of the controller, batteries or other parts of the game.
• Consumers have a role to play in recycling. The waste bin symbol with a strike mark through it indicates you should not dispose of waste electrical/electronic equipment, including batteries, as
