| Hey, great work! Maybe add a "What other drum mods have people done?" section, sort of a mod index for stuff like the cowbell mod? |

Done, added the e-cowbell for now and will circle back through the forum to gather up some more for later. Thanks for the idea! _________________ Check out the Drum Mods & Drum Gear FAQ for quick answers to common questions. |

That MIDI chart is somewhat hard to read, first because the img itself is pretty small, and 2nd because the img itself is pretty small.
Can you make it a bit bigger, and perhaps add horizontal lines between each model brain?
You can also add PD-5, PD-6, and PD-7 to the "works perfectly" section.
And maybe a link to the real Kickbox site too, with a listed of tested kick triggers (KD-7, KD-8, KD-85, Yamaha KP65). _________________ WARNING: Our group is not a friend of Gear Acquisition Syndrome (G.A.S.) Anonymous.

DONE... well almost. You'll still have to click on it to see it full size.

Made some updates to make it less of a wall of text and easier to find information by creating sections with links. This should help the reader find what is meaningful to them without going through 4 pages of stuff.
I started to pull some information from the Rock Band Forums into that thread and will also pull some info from Scorehero and v-Drums over the next few days.
Since I rarely goto Rock Band Forums and more nor Scorehero, if you are there and you see a topic that should be added, post the link in here. Thank You for your help. _________________ Check out the Drum Mods & Drum Gear FAQ for quick answers to common questions. |

Sweet. I was planning on putting something like this up on my domain (davidshek.com) and you've already done most of the work for me  _________________ WARNING: Our group is not a friend of Gear Acquisition Syndrome (G.A.S.) Anonymous.

Good work Sir!
If I'm reading the chart correctly, then you can add the Simmons SD7K to the list of kits that work flawlessly with RB2. I use sethmeisterg's USB adapter, so I have no idea how well it works with the GHWT MIDI box. Mark MIDI mapping and HHO/HHC mapping, but I don't think MIDI audio output applies with the SD7K if I understand what that means. |

Over the weekend I tossed some quick diagrams together to help illustrate how things happen since many questions can be resolved by understanding that each portion is modular such as Trigger/Sound Module/MIDI Passthrough/etc.
Can someone take a peek at the following tread an let me know if it's easily to follow and/or anything is incorrect.
