@iamtheroy Not true. I have a friend who started out playing Rock Band/Guitar Hero drums. That got him interested in drums. He Got REAL drum lessons and is now in a band doing gigs, making some money and having fun. Which in any case doing more then you are trolling on the internet.
@iamtheroy Kinda funny that you say that, because looking at your subscriptions over half are rock band drummers. Most of which use ions. So really what is your point? Besides trolling on this guy?
wow how do you know that they play ions? you either must be pretty familiar with all the rock band drums players, or you have so much free time to watch them to prove me wrong
Yea I am familiar with the drummers, I used to sub to them all. Hell, I used to be friends with Knight Rocker. He used to use a some broken Ions. Not sure if he uses those now.
@CuddlyAardvark I was also interested on drumming...So i asked for GH drums on Christmas...Now, i have real drums and i play in a band... That game really is a motivation to buy real drums.
Awesome man. Finally! A video of the Ion Drum Rocker that isn't a bloody corporate video or a slideshow of stock pics.
Looks really awesome man. I'd consider buying it but i'd be worried Rock Band would add another drum or something, making this awesome one obsolete. That and I'm not paying that much for a video peripheral.
Any chance of doing a video of you playing another song but from a different camera angle; i.e. one looking down on the kit? or from the other side? :)
I have another video of Chop Suey, which is linked on my profile to the right. Its shot from the other side.
As far as RB adding more, i doubt that would ever happen. but even if it did, the XBOX ION head unit has 8 inputs. it supports 4 drums, 3 cymbals, and a kick pedal.
pretty much all music games are better played with headphones; no outside noise distractions, speakers closer to you for less audio lag, etc. in this case, i'm using a headphone splitter to have one line go into the laptop to record audio while the other goes to my phones so i can hear.
well if i didn't use headphones here, i wouldnt be able to hear anything. my yamaha reciever can't output through the headphone jack and main speakers at the same time, and that's the line i'm using to record on my computer. so its either split the phones line or hear nothing. :)
yes so do you actually use all of the pads and symbols cause there are 5 notes total and there is 8 pads and symbols and pedal all combine. Hows that work?
you are the biggest hypocrite Ive ran across ALL FUCKIN YEAR....
you say hes good but that you can do better. tell him to practice, and then talk about how youre vids dont show off your playing because theyre old... this video is over 8 months old... how do you know he doesnt rape you now? fuckin retard
well down :) just played it one time and just could play it on easy mode, middle was already to hard ... but practice makes it always better, to bad that i can't effort a system for rockband+drums right now. Keep up playing 5*
so that i can hear what i'm doing. no sound is coming through the speakers. i'm running a split cable from my 5.1 reciever's headphone jack. one line goes to the laptop to record sound output, the other is the headphone line.
they have a yellow and a green symbol cause thats how it is on the original four so its optimal. its basically so it looks more real and if your use to a real drum kit.
it acutally has 2 yellow, blue, and green. the rockband game itself knows the difference between both and plays the audio accordingly, although it doesn't have any impact of the gameplay, just fills and freestyle mode or whatever it's called :P
i would go to a music store and ask around. i was looking at alesis drum brains online. i figure if you buy the same brand as the ion its hard to mess up.
the pads are also infinately more responsive and can take a brutal beating while still registering every hit perfectly. it's made by an actual music company, not a plastic videogame toy accessory. it's worth every penny.
Wow, you really use the high hat cymbal!! Eveyone I've seen use the ION still uses the yellow tom. Your fills actually sound good, I should say they sound great! awesome job dude!!! Look forward to more videos! maybe some Mastodon!!
Sorry to me out of context but in a pont about the actual cration of the video, the camera angle could be better as to show the snare being hit. Think about positioning the camera a little further around to the left next time. Oh and sorry for not mentioning anything about how good or shit the game is or how much better the other game is than this or how gay something is in the clip or how awesome i think everything else is apart from this.. just couldnt think of anything just yet.
and its not a total piece of shit like the rock band 1 drums and can be converted into an electronic kit.thats y people buy this butyea i dont c if some one who played onb like medium easy or even hard would bye this
It's to show a more real drumming experience if you don't like it posting a comment on you tube isn't going to do you any good is it. What are you even trying to accomplish bye saying it is gay. If you don't like it them simply don't buy it.
they corrospond to whichever color you set them to. it comes with two cymbals and three color discs (so you can choose which setup you want). playing them is just a matter of what's most comfortable. a yellow note can be triggered by either the yellow drum or yellow cymbal. it all depends on which port on the head unit the cymbal is plugged into. it has plugs for red drum only, and all other colors have plugs for both cymbals and drums.
that looks like it makes playing the game a little over-complicated. good song though, rb2 has a great setlist. i'm glad they picked an lp song from when they were in their prime.
How came that drums ? is it in the rockband 2 special edition like with the guitar and stuff , or you need to buy the symbal with something else if yes , where? :( i need alot of info about this drums :(:((
you can order them online from the official drum rocker website; that's where i got mine. or just google "drum rocker" to see if any other retailers carry it.
i have my 360 connected to a yamaha 5.1 reciever via digital optical audio cable. then i have a headphone splitter out of the 1/4" jack in the front of the reciever. one line goes to my headphones, the other to the computer to record.
