Thank you for this item. It came brand new and worked great. My family played rock band all night for the holidays. This is new old stock.The plastic is sticky but it did not bother me. I hook this up to a Roland electric drum set.

Never got to use it. It was for my buddies system. You need a Cable to connect this to the drum kit. I Figured it would come with it... It comes with the cable to connect to Xbox but not the one you need to connect to the kit...

Works exactly as advertised. Will support almost any electronic drum kit in Pro Drum mode in Rock Band 3 (not supported in previous versions, sadly.)

Diciamo per prima cosa che era la prima volta che compravo su Amazon, e devo dire che sono rimasto completamente soddisfatto.Al call center sono gentilissimi mai vista una cosa del genere aiutandomi in tutto.L'adattatore è perfetto come in foto, c'e' stato solo un giorno di ritardo nella consegna, ma partendo dal nord dell' inghilterra credo sia anche normale....Già provato e testato e funziona alla stragrande, consigliato a tutti coloro che hanno una batteria elettronica con uscita midi, dovrebbe essere compatibile con la maggior parte delle batterie, la mia per fortuna è la stessa da loro consigliata, ma credo che se avete un'uscita midi dalla centralina della batteria, dovrebbe funzionare senza problemi.Grazie ancora Amazon.

This adapter works great for connecting any drum kit (or guitar or keyboards) with a midi out to an XboX (PS3 models available). Its light but durable (dropped it a time or two with no problems). Nice hook and/or strap; great to secure it to the drum's frame. All button present so there is no need to use an additional controller to manage the menus. Switch to change from drum to guitar to keyboard, and the sensativity wheel is great for adusting the kit to prevent double hits or missed hits.I would definately recommend this.

Well I finally got my rock band 3 pro setup sorted out. This is so much harder than I expected, but also because its so annoying in some ways. How it shows chords is pretty bad, I expected it to look more like tab and not be judging finger location based on the high of a coloured bar. That said its still worth a try.I am using this with a YRG-1000 guitar and its working just fine.

Habe mir den Adapter im Prinzip nur deswegen gekauft, weil ich in RB E-Drums verwenden möchte und Schlagzeug so realistisch wie möglich spielen will. Mit dem MadCatz Midi Pro Adapter ist dies einfach und problemlos möglich. Weiterer Vorteil: man braucht keine Akkus/Batterien mehr, da der Adapter per USB an die XBOX360 angeschlossen wird. Einfach perfekt. Selbst GH funktioniert weiterhin mit dem Adapter (nur mit Drums getestet!).

I use this item with my Alesis DM-8Pro drum kit to play Rock Band 3. I do not have a midi output on the drum brain (only USB) so I am running through my PC using free MidiOx software which lets me assign midi channels to different pads, resolving the green/blue cymbal reversal you get using an electronic drum kit with RB. The only down side is that there is no headset input for online play which makes it a 4/5 stars.

This product works as advertised but beware if your keyboard doesn't have a touch strip or pitch wheel as you won't be able to whammy any notes while playing. At least, there is an overdrive button...Anyhow, this works great! It's fun to finally be able to use my own instrument into a game!
