ok for an early birthday/chrimbo pressie i got myself an ION iED05 usb digital drum kit (from maplins but also sold from firebox where i first saw it)
software is stupid as it dont save .wav even though the online blurb said it did ... you click the record button and it will record a data file but will only do so if listening to the play along CD.
found a link bout rigging it as a midi device and it meantioned it being mapped as a joystick ... so i ran the joystick demo and whacked a pad ... it gave 5 diferent results so i hit it softer.
but the foot pedals dont work.
...
now ive been out of coding not that i got far in the shallow end ... hell a deep puddle more like ;)
but it got me thinking ... drum samples (in wav not their format) and a bit of effort i might get some kind of "home recording software" out of it ... unless i find my cubase or someone writes something better sooner.
...
but why no pedals ???
having said that if i plugged them into another socket it wont register the hit, so are they like the triggers on the 360 pad?.
