MiniHost - USB Adapter for Clone Hero, YARG, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, and more!

!!This initial revision of the adapter will not fit in the front USB ports of the 360; it will fit on the rear USB ports. This will be fixed in a later revision of the MiniHost!!

The MiniHost is a compact, easy to use USB adapter primarily designed for use with plastic instrument controllers such as Guitar Hero and Rock Band guitars and drum kits!

Where the V3 Adapter works with both Wii and USB instrument controllers, the MiniHost is aimed to be a more affordable and portable adapter for those who want to use only USB instrument controllers!

FEATURES

-A dedicated switch featuring two modes, Default and Keyboard. Default mode will allow the adapter to work with nearly all Guitar Hero and Rock Band games, while Keyboard mode will allow the adapter to work with Fortnite Festival on all platforms!

-An LED indicator so you can quickly and easily tell which mode the adapter is currently in! When performing controller authentication for Xbox consoles, the LED indicator will turn green when the adapter is successfully authenticated; no more guessing!

-The BOOT button used for troubleshooting is no longer a pinhole button that is difficult to reach; you no simple hold down the U-shaped button on the adapter while plugging it into your PC for troubleshooting/programming!
