Take a closer look at all four CRKD Gibson Les Paul Paul Controllers below.
For 1/2, PC, PS3, Android, Fortnite Festival on all platforms
CRKD's multiplication version of the new guitar controller is compatible with PC, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, Android and PS3. It supports Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless and wired connections. All models are compatible with CRKD's Mobile Companion app, which allows you to configure and customize controls.
Although it does not have full compatibility with modern platforms, the multiplication version has a unique pattern called KeyJam. By activating this mode, the controller is registered as a mouse and keyboard, allowing you to use it on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. KeyJam mode is a plug-in, but is only available in wired mode, which contains 8.2 feet of removable cable.
CRKD's Pro Edition's Gibson Les Paul Guitar Controller has some upgraded features in addition to the Blueberry Breaking Color Scheme. Hall Effects Strum Bar has built-in haptic feedback, with customizable sensitivity and multiple actuation points. In addition, the FRET button on the Pro model also utilizes mechanical switches to facilitate fast motion and input recognition. Mechanical buttons have more tactile feedback, and some people find these mouse-like buttons on the controller to improve accuracy.
The rod and the blowing rod are also activated by the Hall effect sensor, which will prevent burst problems and prevent internal mechanisms from wear over time.
One of the simulation sticks is surrounded by buttons you find on a normal controller: ABXY, RB/LB and RT/LT. It also has a mode dial and input switch on the lower right part of the body next to the second analog stick. The tilted sensor activates the power of stars in games like Guitar Hero and Cloning Hero. The D-Pad is located on the back of the bedside table and also has a 3.5mm audio jack for headphones.
The neck has RGB lighting and a modular design. You can remove it from your body, which should be while traveling and allows you to upgrade settings in the future. You can replace your neck completely with an upgraded model and use five additional single buttons (near the body) or replace a single button.
Aside from the Fortnite Festival, the multi-platform version will be those who want to play clone heroes and Yarg on PC, or guitar heroes and rock band games on PS3.
For 1/2, PC, PS3, Android, Fortnite Festival on all platforms
The Encore version of the multi-platform version uses CRKD's black tribe with decorative patterns on the lower half of the body. It has the same core features and platform support as Pro, but the Strum Bar and Frets aim to be the classic guitar hero and rock band feel. The Encore nickname fits here.
The Strum Bar is still activated by the Hall Effect sensor, but it discards haptic feedback in favor of “clicking” sounds and feels familiar to anyone who has played the old guitar hero controller. These qualities have rubber membranes instead of mechanical switches to replicate the feeling and sound of a classic controller.
The Pro Edition is more technically advanced and costs $10, but some players want to return to the original style.
For Xbox, PC, Android | Release on August 29
The Xbox version of Blueberry Breaking Pro is officially licensed and supports the Xbox series X|S, Xbox One, PC and Android. It costs $10 more than the doubled version of the Pro Model, which is probably due to license.
The CRKD button is replaced by the Xbox Guide button. It is worth noting that the Xbox version does no It has KEYJAM mode, so you won't be able to use it on the PlayStation console. That said, you can indeed provide wireless support for your Xbox console, so Rock Band 4 players on the console will need to choose that game.
Apart from these differences, the Xbox Edition has the same feature set, including the Strum Bar with haptic feedback and mechanical character.
The Les Paul is CRKD's first traditional guitar controller, but technically it's not the brand's first guitar controller. CRKD released in collaboration with Epic Games at the end of last year Fortnite Festival Edition of NEO S Wireless Controller Used for switch console and PC. The Neo S is a compact traditional controller with a removable five-speed electrical module. Reminiscent of the accessories of the Guitar Hero game on the Nintendo DS, the placement of the buttons provides a more natural feel compared to the standard face buttons. The Neo S Fortnite Festival Edition costs $56 ($60) and is compatible with Nintendo Switch, PC and Mobile. If you don't like the wavy purple color scheme, then there is one Black Tribe Edition With fret attachment.
CRKD's Gibson Les Paul is the second officially licensed guitar controller that can be released on a modern platform. Last spring, PDP released the Riffmaster Wireless Guitar Controller for $130 each in PlayStation and Xbox models. Earlier this year, PDP raised the price of Riffmaster to $150, but Amazon has PDP Riffmaster's PlayStation and Xbox Editions discounts to $120 Now. If you want to attend the Fortnite Festival with your wireless guitar controller, you will need to attend with Riffmaster. For Switch and Switch 2 players, a multi-platform CRKD controller is the choice by default, as both Riffmaster models are available on Nintendo Consoles.
