Re: KP65 with Rock Band kit help

2007-11-30 by quique_777

Well there isn't much information out there. Best I can do is maybe

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Band#Instrument_peripherals

and here are some of the current mods people have come up with:

One using a button and a kick pedal:

This guy was able to get his DTXpress cymbal to trigger the kit so he
taped it onto his kick pad.
http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1888

and this person explains how he thinks the pedal that comes with the
kit works and how you could take apart the pedal to create your own
using a real pedal:
http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1909

So my goal is to get the KP65 to work with the Rock Band kit rather
than doing something silly like taping one of my cymbals to the kick
pad. Should be possible right? What's the difference between the
cymbal and the kick pad and can you make the kick pad work the same
way as the cymbal? Thanks for the help.
