5. Two-Player Mode

For games that support it, two NBCP Wireless Guitar Controllers can be used simultaneously for a shared gaming experience. Ensure each controller has its own USB receiver plugged into the system.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning

• Wipe the controller with a soft, dry cloth.

2. Battery Care

3. Storage

• Store the controller in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

• Controller Not Connecting:
  Ensure the USB receiver is securely plugged into the console/PC. Verify that the guitar controller has fresh batteries and is powered on. Try plugging the receiver into a different USB port.
• Buttons/Strum Bar Unresponsive:
  Check battery levels. Ensure the controller is within range of the USB receiver. If buttons feel stiff, continued use may improve responsiveness.
• PC Compatibility Issues (Windows 11):
  Some users have reported that on Windows 11, the controller may be recognized as a keyboard, leading to unintended inputs (e.g., continuous spacebar input) and locking PC controls. If this occurs, unplug the wireless receiver. Ensure your game (e.g., Clone Hero, Fortnite Festival) is configured to recognize the guitar controller input correctly. Driver updates for your PC's USB ports or specific game settings might be required.
• Game Not Recognizing Controller:
  Confirm that the game you are playing is listed as compatible. Some games, like Rock Band 4 on PS4, are not supported. Check in-game controller settings to ensure the correct input device is selected.
• Lag or Input Delay:
  Ensure there are no obstructions between the controller and the USB receiver. Minimize interference from other wireless devices. Check battery levels.
