Rock Band 3 is a music video game, and the third main game in the Rock Band series. Harmonix Music Systems is the primary developer for the game, with additional development by Backbone Entertainment on the Wii and DS versions. The game is published and distributed by MTV Games and Electronic Arts, respectively. As with previous games in the series, Rock Band 3 allows players to simulate the playing of rock music and other genres using special instrument controllers mimicking lead and bass guitar, drums, and vocals. Rock Band 3 expands upon previous games by including three-part vocal harmonies—previously used in The Beatles: Rock Band and Green Day: Rock Band—and support for a keyboard instrument, a MIDI-compatible 25-key unit.

Problems

Sound is a little delayed

Sound may initially be delayed, this can be corrected via the Rock Band configuration options.

Menu Errors

The menu is laggy.

Madcatz Pro Guitar Adapter

The Rock Band 3 Fender Squier Guitar is partially functional. All Wii game keys on adapter and guitar are able to be bound, fret sensing and string plucking are able to be bound, but unable to be interpreted as the appropriate pro instrument in game.

Keyboard

No support for the keyboard accessory or the keyboard pro adapter.

Low FPS

In-game the FPS is only 30, this can be corrected by enabling "Use FPS for limiting".

Configuration

No configuration changes are known to affect compatibility for this title.

r7689 Windows 7 Intel Core i3-2100 @ 3.1GHz NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX+ Great! Black band members. Menu is laggy... djlastnight
3.0-201 Windows 7 Intel Core i5-2500K @ 4.6GHz ATI Radeon HD 6950 Black band members, laggy menu, stuttering gameplay (despite enabling "limit by FPS"). Game had trouble picking up quick successive notes on both the GH World Tour guitar and drumset. Unplayable for difficulties hard and expert. Extreme audio and video calibration needed.
4.0 Windows 8.1 AMD FX-8320 AMD Radeon HD 7770 Black band members, major slowdown on menu, full speed while playing songs Zcair
4.0.1 Windows 7 Intel Core i5-3570K @ 4.2GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 Black band members, slow menu, stuttering gameplay with "limit by FPS". Needed to redo calibration multiple times to become playable for hard and expert. It is hard to hit successive notes, but still playable on expert. Darkinferno3
4.0.2 Windows 7 Intel Core i5-3570K NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti Black band members, audio emulation is very demanding (LLE), fine 60FPS Zcair
