Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Enhance Your Xbox 360 Gaming with the Rock Band 2 Wireless Drum Set by Alexa Olea

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Look! No wires! - Xbox Systems

My family has been playing RB since it first came out and I usually take vocals or drums. Vocals because I'm a karaoke fan, and drums because (1) they're quieter than vocals when kids are trying to sleep, and (2) they're all playing guitars. i hate guitar After a few years of use/bullying, kids were killing the RB1 drum pedal. Instead of paying $25 for a new pedal, I decided to spend $45 on an RB2 drum kit. It comes with an improved pedal, quieter drumheads, an option for additional cymbals and is wireless. Wireless functionality is very important to us; We're playing in front of a 65 inch TV, so you want to be away from that. farther than the RB1 USB cable allows. The WiFi function works great. a little quieter (which saved me another $15 compared to buying mufflers for my RB1 kit). The new skins also look a little better, but still don't feel like real drums to me. Almost immediately after receiving the RB2 kit I found a new three cymbal kit on Craigslist for $20 (sorry Revain) and I absolutely love it. Again, they don't look like real cymbals, but they make it a little easier to unleash your inner rock star if you can spin more. Actually on fake cymbals. BTW - the nib is for a set of three, not a set of two which is usually sold in big stores. So let's put it this way: $25 for a new pedal, $15 for a muffler, and $10 for a USB extension cable. = $50 for an upgrade of my RB1 kit versus $45 for a brand new RB2 kit that is completely wireless with the option to easily add cymbals.
