DJ Dao GF/DM Arcade Style Controllers

[Evi]

Why are people posting bad suggestions for how to make the controller work with both games. They already know how to do that, hence why they didn't ask for help. What they want to know is how much you guys are willing to pay for them, and what features you'd like to see.

I'd pay $500-$600.00 for a GOOD DM controller. Especially if it was even more accurate than the DT-X. As for the GH/GF controller, I'd pay $200-300.00.

GF: 250
DM: 400

You have to figure that he's going to charge at least 100-150 shipping, and not everyone's rich enough to blow 700-800 on one controller. The point is to provide a cheaper alternative for people who want to buy a DM controller but don't want to spend almost a thousand dollars on a professional drum kit.

I have get the confirming information about the Rubber Drum unit and Rubber Cymbal unit from our suppliers.
So we can provide the same style and feeling and sensitivity.
We account exactly all the cost for dm controller same to arcade(or more than 95% same).
if 400USD or more,we think we will go on the plan to make DM controller.
If less,we think we will stop the plan.

Sidenote and not completely on topic, based on the double neck guitar and the clear drum set, Daft Punk was definitely paying homage or otherwise alluding to Led Zeppelin with that video \m/

I still stand by the double neck controller idea though. I think that would be very cool and a lot more practical than it seems at first. Here's a quick mockup I did using the Konami controller, although I think it would be coolest to model it after the Gibson EDS-1275 shown in both previous images.

K, see, THAT WOULD ROCK. Of course, it'd have to be DJDao Silver, but otherwise that would be the END ALL controller. that would make me play GF every day.

And yea, Daft Punk payed omage to a TON of people on Human After All, I didn't know they did to Led Zeppelin though.
Take 'The Brainwasher' for example. The beginning sounds almost EXACTLY like Iron Man, and if I'm not mistaken uses the very notes Iron Man uses in the 1st verse.

400-500$ would be the best (even though I would prefer it to be closer to 400$ )

I really don't know about this, I mean cost effective wise, that's like the cost of making two seperate guitars, not very efficient IMO
(I mean it will look cool and all but...)

re: human after all, I just meant the video, not the song xD

But the thing is I've noticed a lot of DTX's are going for less than 700 now. There are quite a few DTX 3's ending at like 500 to 600. So I hope this controller can beat that with feature's at least or it seems like a lost cause. Maybe if the controller was extremely AC accurate. But otherwise I would rather have a KOC type controller with better spacing and angled HH and Crash.

I made it in two seconds, it's just a mockup to show the concept, not some beautiful, orgasmic ASC. If it looked just like that I wouldn't buy it either, but I think a nice doublenecked controller would be sweet.

[Evi]

I would not buy a doublenecked controller. I love doublenecked guitars, and I play one IRL, but a controller would look kinda stupid to play IMO. Also, it would be a lot heavier, meaning not only higher shipping costs, but it will get tiring to play after a while.

[BobbyS]

I think that doubleneck thing looks ridiculous too....

That thing would be a lot heavier than it needs to be, and it would be uncomfortable with a 2nd neck and pick in the way. And I sure as hell don't want to pay for two guitars when all I need is one.

[もも]

In my eyes, I would think Dao would make a single AND double neck if he was even going to make the double neck in the first place. Come on.

re: Human After All, I know, I know. Just stating a discovery ^-^
