Having trouble with strum bar (x-plorer Xbox 360) - need helpp

[soccer383]

So i recently connected my xplorer to the computer
read most of the stuff i could find here for help (the drivers, joy2key, etc)
i download the driver for the controller
it recognizes the controller and everythin
wat i cant seem to find is the set keys option for the guitar though
nevertheless i dont quite understand joy2key yet but got it working
(seems like joy2key need to be open for it to work or something like that)
i set the buttons and keys to work
however i dont understand wat to put for the the strum bar.
under the joy2key is it up and down for the strum bar?
or is it one of the buttons?
i need help setting the strum bar
because having to press enter for every note is really disturbing me as it detracts from the whole guitar thing.

Strum bar is up and down on the D-pad (+)

hmm doesnt seem to help
so wat exactly do i set the strum to on joy2key and on FoF?

[i_pk_pjers_i]

you dont need joy2key for the xplorer. you just plug it in, config its keys in the fof settings and play. (from what ive heard)

personally i wouldn't bother with any of that

get the XBCD+ drivers and make the up/down buttons on the D-Pad button 15 and 16 (or whichever two buttons you like as long as theyre not currently in use) and then strum bar will work flawlessly

if you use the drivers windows comes with, the strum bar will be very laggy/weird when you're double strumming and can really **** you up.

In order to install the XBCD+ drivers go to the website (google) and DL v. 04 and then get the fix for v.04. Plug your controller in, and go to device manager. where it says XBOX 360 controller, click on it and then click update drivers. Tell windows you will choose the driver to install

Now, just click the XBCD+ option in the list, run the setup utility and make the necessary changes.
