not to rain on anyone’s parade, but don’t all rockband drum kits use usb? at least the 360 and ps3 ones do, and neither this or the article make any claim as to why the wii has easier drums to convert.

Usb2Midi – i used to use it with the DM2 Mixman controller a very long time ago. Any USB device can be mapped to midi, I dont really consider this a hack or even news…..

I think the Wii kit is essentially plug and play while the others require driver software.

To me, the news here is that the Wii controllers are going to be wired USB, not wireless bluetooth as I was told… Bummer..

But USB is an industry standard, how could the wii essentially be plug and play when all 4 consoles(xbox 360, ps3, wii and the ps2) use USB for the game controllers, the drivers are loaded when you run the disc in the console. Same thing for the pc.

special hardware.

Its why you cant plug a usb 360 controller in and have it work as a generic pad. You have to have the drivers. With the Wii they are most likely using commercial / generic hardware that allows the system to recog the device. Hey why dont grab a kit from another console and try it out?

@36chambers:
Can you point me to that usb2midi thing you’re talking about?

I did the same thing a few months back using a very simple Max/MSP patch… it was actually a dumbed-down version of a patch I wrote for the Rock Band/Guitar Hero guitars (http://www.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=61085).
I just used the Xbox 360 and PS3 drivers from Tattiebogle.net to read the HID input, which I then translated to MIDI output within the patch. It’s pretty fun to play with in GarageBand.

I wrote a little program that maps the drums to MIDI. It’s not as full-featured (or as customizable) as junxion but it’s free and open source: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=259192
