|
|
I cant believe they took away the ability to activate OD with the controller on RB4. After already taking the select button on guitar and nixing the note streak its getting pretty hard not to think this is an intentional middle finger at SH type users, and not just oversights. _________________

It works just fine for me. Menu button on the left, just like the back button. _________________

Yeah, works the same as it always has on Xbone. PS4, I'm less sure about. Have you tried pressing the touchpad in? That usually replaces Select. _________________

We're going to have to have XB1 paths and PS4 paths now because many paths won't be possible on PS4. _________________

It's not impossible to play the controller and tilt it at the same time, it just takes some practice.
That said, it's stupid how both consoles have their own dumb rules about game controllers and what they will/won't allow. |

Ah yes the tilt sensors in the standard controllers used for vocals, you're right! _________________

My bad, I didn't see what subforum this was in and assumed guitar controller. |

Yeah, it really seems like a "Pick Your Poison", at least for now. No button OD for vox nor on the new guitars for PS4 but no ION/MIDI support for the Xbox One. Oh well. Hopefully they rectify it. |

As someone who is mainly a vocalist, I know which poison I prefer. Still sucks for PS4 singers though. |

I made my early vocals career on the vocal activations, but I far prefer the push button method and can't conceive of having to go back; the vocal strain is real. My condolences. Hopefully it can/will get added in. _________________

Added functionality to support vocal overdrive deploy with touch pad for PlayStation 4 _________________

I might be partially responsible for that fix being implemented. That wasn't mentioned in the last projected patch notes when they first announced an upcoming patch and I wrote them a long message on the RB facebook page about how much of a difference that feature made, and they actually answered me and said they would try to add it in. VERY happy to see they did - can't wait to start singing on Nov 2, now if we can just get practice mode we'll be in business! _________________

I actually sent a tweet to them asking about adding vocal activation on PS4 too. I also mentioned it in some comments on FB so hopefully they got the message from multiple people.
But YAAY. I can finally play vocals the right way |
