Emulator

It's an issue with usbdk, it works fine on Linux. You'll need to bug them; I restarted my computer and it stopped crashing.

Err, it may not be a usbdk issue, but also a LibUSB issue, not sure who to blame :).

Thanks for the feedback. I didn't have usbdk installed, so I decided it would be a good idea to install it and try again. In my first attempts, the game did not detect the microphone at all. With usbdk installed, however, the game does detect the microphone (and my voice!) for a few precious seconds before dolphin crashes.

Also, I can confirm that this issue is not game specific. It also occurs in Rock Band 3 (SZBE69).

We're running into crashes on some PCs with usbdk... I'm not sure what's causing them all the sudden. For me, I was having it happen too, but I restarted and it stopped happening.

Linux works fine, so, it's something outside of Dolphin causing the issues.

I can confirm this as well. Rock Band 3 runs without crashes as long as the microphone is not added to the white-list. I'm on Windows 10 x64 with USBdk installed.

Oh well. Thanks for taking the time to look into this.

I think i may have figured it out.
When you installed UsbDk did you only install the .msi?
I think the msi by itself doesn't actually install the UsbDk driver, or does so incorrectly.

After installing the msi, from an elevated command prompt, I ran
cd C:\Program Files\UsbDk Runtime Library
UsbDkController.exe -u
UsbDkController.exe -i

This should uninstall and then re-install the UsbDkController driver.
If the -i option fails, unplug any USB devices and run it again. (I used a laptop for this, so I don't know if USB mouse/keyboard will prevent install, but I doubt it)

NOTE: This froze my PC when i tried to use my USB ports directly after, but upon rebooting, USB passthrough of the mic worked just fine and had no issues.

Tested on Dolphin 5.0-5167, Windows 8.1 x64, UsbDk v1.00-19, with Karaoke Revolution and Rock Band (sorry, didn't have Guitar Hero but I'm pretty sure it's the same issue) with the Logitech Rock Band Mic.

Last time I tried to install the usbdk library it failed for me as well. I'll try that.

Can confirm that this did not fix the issue for me, I tested it with RB3, GHWoR and RB2, The Rock Band games freeze shortly after detecting microphone input, whereas GH Warriors of Rock freezes upon entering the main menu. All the games I used are PAL versions and function fine without the microphone enabled.
