This video is a tutorial on how to get MIDItar Hero working with Reason. The same instructions should apply to getting MIDItar Hero to work with any digital audio workstation (FL Studio, GarageBand, Mixcraft, Ableton Live) on Mac or Windows. However, on Windows you will need a Virtual MIDI Driver to send MIDI data from MIDItar Hero to another application. Check the MIDItar Hero website (http://miditarhero.wordpress.com) for more information or if you have any questions.

MIDItar Hero is a program designed to let you use your Rock Band or Guitar Hero controller (Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Wii) as a MIDI controller. You can use with an external MIDI interface and hook it up to a synthesizer, or you can use it with a program on your computer that accepts MIDI input (in this video, I'm using a software guitar in GarageBand). MIDItar Hero was created using Max/MSP.

  • its not working for me... downloaded all the software, and plugged my wii set into my macbook pro, set the controller to Harmonix drum controller for Nintendo Wii, the control type to Wii RB Drums, and the output to MaxMSP Runtime 1. I clicked on drums. I opened garageband, and it said it detected 3 midi inputs. However, I don't know how to specify what midi input to use, and this setup is not sending creating any sounds on the piano. Same thing in Logic... No sounds.

    Someone help please!

  • How do you set up your Rockband 2 Controller hooked up with Mixcraft 5 with MIDItar Hero? I have the controller drivers for x360 and have MaX/MSP running. The guitar controllers are a Rockband 3 Mustang Pro Fender and a Rockband 2 Stratocaster Wireless? Please help I can't find any good tutorials online how to set it up. Its damn frustrating.
