Questions and Answers
The RIFFSTICK is designed for Clone Hero and YARG on a Windows PC. It may require you to bind controls manually in CH or YARG. It is possible to use this controller on Xbox versions of Guitar Hero and RB if you have the USBDSecPatch & a Santroller USB Host, but this is unofficial support. Fortnite Festival does not work at this time.
The RIFFSTICK is an XInput device. It works the same as an Xbox controller. If your device works with Xbox controllers, it will work with the RIFFSTICK. As of now, MacOS is NOT officially supported. Android in theory should work, but is not tested at this time.
More Information coming soon 🙂
The RIFFSTICK is intended to be a budget, travel controller. It does not have the polish of a manufactured and officially licensed controller, BUT I went through hundreds of iterations of parts to get it as nice as I could.
The strumming is excellent! Clicky and tactile, great rebound to center, and no double strumming! The fretting is less perfect. While the buttons in the RIFFSTICK use Gateron Pro blue switches to be tactile, clicky, and smooth in the hand, sliding your finger between frets to hit chains of HammerOn/PullOff notes will likely not be as nice as you’re used to. BUT, with some practice you can get used to this controller and can definitely set some high scores on Expert songs.
