MiniHost – Xbox One/S, Series S/X
Getting Started
Now that you’ve installed your MiniHost Adapter, we can setup games on your Xbox One/One S, Series S/Series X!
Please click on the game you’ll be playing in dropdown menu below:

Keyboard Mode
NOTE: EPIC HAS CHANGED A SETTING IN FORTNITE THAT HIDES PRO MODES NORMALLY. YOU WILL WANT TO ADJUST THIS TO ALWAYS HAVE PRO MODES SHOWING.
TO FIX THIS, GO TO Settings > GAME > scroll to bottom > change “Always Display Pro Parts” to ON.

Switch the mode on the adapter to K and then plug it in!
This section assumes that you have already calibrated your Whammy and Tilt. If you haven’t done that, please read the MiniHost Installation/Setup guide.
This will put your guitar into keyboard mode, where your inputs will be assigned to the default Fortnite Festival Pro Lead Keyboard settings:
- 1-5 for frets
- Right Ctrl & Right Shift for strum
- Forward Slash (/) for whammy
- Page Down for overdrive
You will have to control your menus/character movement with another controller, but once you load into the Festival game mode, the guitar will function as intended!
Have fun!

Auth Needed
To play Rock Band 4 on your Xbox with the MiniHost Adapter, you will have to authenticate the adapter with a licensed Xbox One or Xbox Series controller.
- Connect a licensed Xbox controller into the female USB-A port on the MiniHost Adapter (where you plug in your guitar or dongle) using a USB cable.
- Plug the adapter into the console in D mode.
- Wait a moment, then press start on the gamepad to verify the connection is made. You can sign into a profile now.
- Unplug the licensed Xbox controller from the MiniHost Adapter.
- Plug in your guitar/dongle.
- Play the game!
If your controller is connect under the profile you want to use for the guitar, you’ll need to “drop out” the controller before assigning that profile to the guitar.
