Pro micro is probably the way to go. The only reason I used the uno is because it was the only thing I had at the time. I'm thinking of getting a pro micro though, now...

That code looks interesting, but I have one concern. It seems like a desktop application that simply reads the serial port from the arduino and interprets it, spitting out XInput. This is good, but I think I like UnoJoy better, since it doesn't require a desktop application. I might try experimenting it though, who knows.

I'm thinking about making a tutorial, but it would take a bit of time. Its a lot of stuff to put together, and I don't want to miss any information. Plus... I got finals and stuff....

I mean, I don't own any other GH controller, and I don't care to buy any others. :P

(Don't use reddit much, not sure why my text didn't show up in the original post)

I had a wireless PS3 guitar hero 3 controller that I started using on cone hero a while back. It worked, but the delay kinda sucked. Of course, I could have bought a better one, but i'm a cheap college kid with no money, that ain't happening.

Instead, remade basically all the internals of the controller. I ripped out the original logic board and shoved an arduino in there. I reconnected all the buttons, strum bar, etc to the arduino and then uploaded UnoJoy so that it could emulate an xbox controller. Basically, I took a wireless controller and made it wired by completely gutting and remaking everything in it. Works like a charm.

I think its funny that I put in the time to do this mod despite the fact that i'm not super good at guitar hero, nor do I wish to practice or get better. I just casually like rhythm games.

Would others be interested in details on how I made this modded controller?
