Gh world tour mic has terrible lag

Just got gh world tour and are trying to get it working. the vocals have a terrible lag. the guitars and drums seem to be fine (seem to be working the same as gh III did). when try to add the mic, the vocals being sung have such a lag, it completely messes up everyone else. We have an hdtv and are playing gh through the stereo. We have tried every stereo setting but nothing helps. Has anyone encountered this before?

I would attempt to go audio out from the Wii to the stereo directly, and not through the television. I am convinced that some HDTVs delay the audio output to sync with the supposed delayed video output. Even World Tour itself claims that HDTVs have significant video delay. Also, I looked at the back of my Philips 42" LCD and the analog audio-out RCA connectors say: "Audio output (synced with video)"

Yes, unfortunately, USB ports just aren't fast enough for live vocals. Some stereo setups have longer lag times than others, as well. A couple of ms is very noticeable. Have you tried adjusting the settings on the game? Go to "Options" on the Home Screen and select "Calibrate Lag." Here you can delay either your Audio or your Video in 1 ms increments to try to adjust for lag times. You may find a happy medium after adjusting these settings.

How can I connect my hsm mic to gh3 world tour?

You can use any mic that has a usb plug, you can also use the usb mic on your pc too. You will not be able to the mic with GH3, because GH3 does not offer band multiplay, you will need to get GH World Tour or a GH track pack. You can also use the guitars from GH for all the Rockband series too. So having the mic already, all you would have to do (if it has the usb) is connect it to the usb plug in the front of your console. I assume your using the PS2 b/c of the pic. You can also use the drums and mic from PS2 with a PS3. You can't use the guitar from PS2 for PS3 unless you buy this wire that converts the controller plug to usb, on ebay they are $4-$5, obviously a lot cheaper than buyer another guitar @ $40-$50. This info should help and may answer some future questions as well. Good luck.

Can't use drums for rockband on guitar world tour

The instruments for Rock Band and GH:WT are compatible on the PS3 and the Xbox 360, not the Wii. Blame Activision, the creators of GH:WT - they went a different route with hardware for the Wii that made things incompatible.

Microphone for guitar hero world tour

just asked this same question.
discovered that by removing one of our wii controllers from the drum set that we could use the microphone and the guitar. Guessing that having a 3rd controller would allow for the full band to play together (guitar, drum, and vocals). Thinking that by having 4th controller, we could hook up our other microphone or another guitar.
