Rock Band Shockwave Expert with Electronic Drums

Shockwave on Rock Band Expert drums using my Roland TD-6 V-Drums.

Vid is made to show the electronic drum set in action (not to show that I am an awesome drummer or awesome RB player)

I am not a drummer, I've never really played drums in my life until Rock Band, so this is a learning experience for me. Previous vids were just playing on the pads, this one I'm actually using the HH/cymbals, as you can see.

All the credit for figuring out how to do this goes to the guys on the Rock Band Forums. http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20420

My friend has this set. And do to hitting the snare hard, the mesh has gotten really loose. How do u tighten it?

[rawws6]

Strange place to ask this question, but no problem... There are 6 screws around the top of the snare. You just have to tighten them with a drum key (one comes with the set). Check the owners manual or look it up online. As with most circular bolt patterns, you want to do a star pattern and tighten a small amount at a time to get even tightness around the head.

thats awesome.

i would do this if my roland wasnt the 8k one.

lol

You don't modify the Roland in any way. You have to modify your $80 rock band set, but that's it - Roland is unchanged, just outputting MIDI ;)

I'm planning on doing this with, but with a very cheap yamaha dtxpress (I found a snare that costs more, so)

I bet one of neil peart's cowbells costs more than the best e-kit money can buy

Very nice setup you have there! It should be noted that you are doing it the harder way with the cymbals placed where they should be, good job!
