I remember getting the first RB game along with all the instruments (guitar, Drums, mic) almost on release day. I remember stashing the huge box in my wife's trunk; you should have seen the faces of...

Same happens with the Xbox 360. It is probably a database situation where someone forgot to include him in the band's roster (heck, he only started the darn band anyways :) )

Greetings fellow faux-rockers and soon-to-be real rockers (thank you PRO mode!)

I am having a bit of a problem here with RB3. I have tried to play my career mode online with a band made of random...

Glad to hear that you are considering the e-drum brain already. One thing is not very clear is if you already have an e-drum brain you are wanting to hook up to or you are considering getting one. As...

I got mine last february from Zzounds.com. The price was good but definitely I remember seeing only a handful of places carried them in-stock.

Perhaps Roland is shifting their stock units towards...

You can transmit anything that goes to the TV using a Slingbox, as long as the audio/video source is connected to the TV and the slingbox using Component video signals (Y, Pb, Pr) and audio in Stereo...

You can already tell everyone has their own opinion on the matter (what, opinionated people in an online forum? never heard of it... :P )

My own experience was to first, start slow. Start with the...

That the heigh is not adjustable is a bit misleading. You can adjust up/down the position of the cross-bar that holds both toms as well as the side arms that hold the cymbals and the snare/flor tom...

You are right, however bear in mind that in my case I had to mesh head the drums due to wife low noise factor. You can have a perfectly functional acoustic set with regular heads and on top of that...

I play 5.1 on one of those HT in a box "dealios" and definitely I notice significant differences:

- Enabling 5.1 Dobly Surround gives me more volume.
- I have the 360 connected to the TV...

Hey mate, I'll be glad to give you my own experience, which by no means is a solid response but rather I hope it resonates a bit with what's on your mind.

First take a look at this. My current...

Madillma has it right. They extended the RB1 pedal warranty to almost "infinity" because they do break, is not a question of "if" but "when".

If for whatever reason they won't replace it for you,...

I gotta admit I was aware of Dream Theatre thanks to my bro, who happened to REALLY like them. However, I did become a fan just after playing their songs in RB2.

The Drums are velocity sensitive. However, when Harmonix released their first patch last year they disabled the velocity for the Ions. I know this to be true for the 360 version, I am not sure about...

Just a note on the old drive: once you transfer all your content from the old drive to the new drive, the old drive is not erased of formatted like in a PC. It still contains the Xbox files and the...

For a close to real feel the Alesis Surge cymbals are good. I made my own and I can tell you the feel is something quite unique, as hitting those cymbals makes your hand have a different appreciation...

For the original rock band: there's an option for Solo play, where you pick your instrument and play through the entire set of songs with the instrument you chose.

You can only play Tour mode if...

I have an old RB1 set that's missing a green pad and the yellow pad is cracked. The core brain is perfectly functional though. Would that work?

Careful there. If you completely trade in your Ions for a DM6 set you will completely loose any possibilities for using the e-drum to play RB. If that's what you want the sure, go for it. If you get...

Greetings!

The DM5 is definitely one of the cheapest alternatives out there. Usually in the e-drum world Alesis is not perceived as the top manufacturer; that title goes to Roland and Yamaha....
