Xbox 360 Rock Band Portable Drum Kit

Comment: I purchased this item 2 to 3 weeks ago, as a replacement to my old RB drums that had crapped out.

The drum pads are rather loud, but decently receptive.

After a couple weeks of usage, the red drum pad crapped out, making them useless.

I suppose you get what you pay for, not bad for $15, but I wouldn't reccomend them.

Comment: I must five-star this one not only for being a solid game drum kit at just $10, but for making Rock Band more accessible to those living in small flats. I'd been playing band-sim games at friends' homes, but knew I'd never tolerate a big expensive plastic drum kit taking up space in my tiny studio. However, when the price on this dropped to $10, I couldn't justify holding out any longer. This is a great kit that sets up easily on a coffeetable and packs up cleanly in a ~10x8x5in box. Those complaining that the kick pedal is not the most comfortable are right, but for the price & footprint, this can't be beat. :)

Comment: Wow, these pads are incredible. They arrived pretty fast. The thing I most liked about them was that the pads have a thin layer of rubber on them which makes them quieter than stock. I thugh the foot pedal was pretty good. It's really wide so you could do double bass on it.

Comment: Got these to use as midi triggers for drum programs on my Mac. They were not recognized and therefore useless. I need to return these but have delayed and am past the 30 day return policy??

Comment: Basically the set itself is great. The pads are responsive. I don't consider myself a great drummer, but I like to tear it up on expert and these drum pads deliver. Rolls on the snare or any other pad are very clean, somewhat of a relief as my RB1 drumset doesn't deliver as much. The pedal is also a wonder. I feel a lot more comfortable with this pedal than with the stock on RB1 or RB2. So the gear is good. The one flaw which a lot of people have mentioned is NO FRAME!!!!! Set-up is a drag, finding a comfortable way to play, but once you do it is awsome. The proof is in the numbers, my score on All Nightmare Long in GH: Metallica went up 200k with these drums. All in all it is worth it, just need a little patience and now you can tear it up on the road
