Cheap electronic drumkits for PS2 Drummania?

[Blizzard188]

Hi everyone, normally, I rarely post in the boards, much less start new threads, but I've been meaning to get an electronic drum kit to Play Drummania 3 and above for PS2 for several months now, but since I don't have a big budget on me, can you guys tell me which drum sets are of good quality that's not too pricey? Thanks!

They're all too pricey

This is probably the cheapest you're gonna get

^ ya what he said, although there was guy that has a different drumset that worked with guitar Hero III, go look for it on youtube search from Guitar hero Drums.

ION Audio 5 Piece MIDI Electronic Drum Set - IED01 : Target

Enjoy.

I have heard stories about the ION kits being severely lacking in the durability department, though, so be wary and do research before you buy anything.

That drumpad required EXTENSIVE programming to get it to work, so it's hardly a viable solution here. :P

There's a drumkit on sale at Sam's for about $300 that I've heard good things about, right over here.

I was gonna ask the same question, thanks for the tips as well.

However, sorry if sound like a total noob but how exactly does the drum kit hook up to the PS2? If someone can please be so kind enough to explain =(

You need the Yamaha UX16 adaptor (or UX96 or UX256 work too I've heard, but they're more expensive and don't work any better, and they're not officially supported so yeah)

Hi, thanks for the tips, but there's just one catch: I'm in Canada, in the middle of nowhere, the biggest city close to me is Rimouski.

[UseMyExciter]

Well, you're probably gonna have to order online then

They all do, provided that you use an adaptor that works. The only "officially" supported one is the Yamaha UX-16 and that's the only one that's guaranteed to work.

Baffo or Pacific Digital DX-150 (I think its DX, all I know that it has a -150 on it, ug I need glasses).

There is also this "Virtual Drum Kit" that was created in China, but I think thats $225 as well.

However, the Baffo and Pacific Digital are both $150 each.

I might consider getting them as well.

See yaz bye.

Thanks for making the thread, I am totally going to buy that TSM I think. If not I have to go with the Ion, or the other ones Zarcom was talking about.

Wait... does ANY electric drum kit work provided with the adapter?

Cus umm... DD 502- look it up on ebay and youtube
