USB Strobe Lights!?

[bounchfx]

Right on the heels of my freestyle drum mode idea (built in electronic drum set ftw!) I think there should also be an optional usb strobe light peripheral. Just because. That would be sweet. Sync'd up to the game it would make rocking out that much more seizure causing. Anyone agree?

I like your freestyle drum idea, this one...not so much.

lol, I mentioned this somewhere a while back (probably the "ideas for rock band" thread). I think it'd be awesome!

The actual flashing light in the game are all run by a simple series of events, it'd be so good if you could get a USB strobe to tap into those event cues. Chances are it won't happen, but I'm definitely going to buy a strobe that flashes to the beat (or loud sounds) when RB comes out.

can we get a dry ice/smoke machine peripheral as well?

Don't tempt me!!

I was already looking up prices the other day. I'm thinking I might have a Rock Band party about a week after I get the game, invite over about 20 people and have a crazy rock orgy, lol... Due to the high price of smoke machines I'd probably just hire one... my sister already has a mirror ball, and we have some crappy moving coloured lights, plus I'm gonna buy a strobe. It'll be awesome.

Anyone on this forum from South Australia is welcome to come... surely I'm not the only Adelaidian here?

ya that would be nice if the strobe lights matched the effects on the t.v.

BEST. IDEA. EVER.

Pyro Kit would be better.

I dunno how well pyrotechnics would go in my house, I can touch the ceiling just by stretching my arm in the air. Perhaps I could take the safer (but kinda messier) option of filling air canons with shiny confetti, lol
