Default Note from Highly Liquid

Note from Highly Liquid regarding final MSA Rockband compatibility:

Quote:
You're receiving this message because you purchased an MSA kit with the
version 2.1 "beta" firmware for use in the Rock Band MIDI mod.

The version 2.1 firmware has an incompatibility with certain (Yamaha)
drum modules. This has been fixed in the new "production" MSA firmware,
version 2.2.

...

Since the new "production" MSA firmware supports the Rock Band mod,
special instructions are no longer required when ordering. I would be
grateful if any forums or other web resources are updated with this
information.

FAQ's (Answered):
  • E-Drums -> (via MIDI) MSA-P or R8 -> (via soldered-on wires) RB drum controller -> (via original USB) XBox.
  • RB controller soldering instructions: pg 4, 11 & 15
  • Hardware: MSA-P ($50-$100). Work involved, pg 19, 35 (ground wire question, etc).
  • Programming the MSA-P, pg 17. Use this software.
  • Use 12v dc power supply w/ MSA-P.
  • Guide by Flash. Additional thanks to SystematicGravy, Jack Fuller & Sandeep.
  • R8 ($400 easier route)
