Support for YRG on PS3 requires the use of a PS3 GameFlex cartridge and dongle.
Support for YRG on Wii requires the use of a Wii GameFlex cartridge.

* Rock Band 3
We have tested the You Rock Guitar in regular 5-button mode on Wii and PS/3 it seems to work fine.
The You Rock Guitar is software upgradeable and we are researching the possibility of supporting ProMode in conjunction with the Mad Catz MidiPro adapter.

You only need the wireless cartridge for 5-button mode (we support Wii and PS/3)

** Guitar Hero 3 - PS3
We are in the process of evaluating a solution. In some cases we have found that updating the game on the PS/3 fixes the problem.

How do I get my YRG to work with Guitar Hero/Rockband?

• A Gameflex™ cartridge is required. If you are not using the optional Gameflex™ cartridge system, you will be unable to play Guitar Hero or Rockband with the YRG. Each Game system uses a separate cartridge: Only Wii™ and PS3™are currently supported.
  
  
  • PS3
    
    • Insert a PS3 Gameflex cartridge into the guitar.
    • Insert the USB dongle included with your Gameflex cartridge into one of the USB ports on your PS3.
    • With the YRG and the PS3 powered on, press the GAME button on the guitar’s control panel. Your guitar’s LED should now display the number ‘2’. If this number is blinking, your cartridge and USB dongle need to be synced (see ‘Syncing your Gameflex cartridge’ below). If the number is solid, however, they are synced already.
    
    
  • Wii
    
    • Insert a Wii Gameflex cartridge into the guitar.
    • With the YRG and the Wii powered on, press the GAME button on the guitar’s control panel. Your guitar’s LED should now display the number ‘1’. If this number is blinking, your cartridge needs to be synced with your Wii (see ‘Syncing your Gameflex cartridge’ below). If the number is solid, however, they are synced already.
  
  
• To sync:
  
  • PS3
    
    • Press the blue, semicircular button on the Gameflex cartridge inserted into your guitar.
    • Press the button on the USB dongle inserted into your PS3’s USB port. The dongle LED will begin to flash rapidly. When it stops blinking, the ‘2’ displayed on the YRG in GAME mode will be solid. The Gameflex cartridge is now synced.
    
    
  • Wii
    
    • Open the front panel of your Wii console, and press the red Sync button there.
    • Press the RECORD(.) button on the control panel. After a few moments, the '1' on the guitar LED display will stop flashing. The Gameflex cartridge is now synced.
  
  
• Once these steps are complete, you can use the YRG’s joystick and colored frets to navigate your console’s home screen and in-game menus.
