could you be a little more specific plz
Re: using regular controller for frets on fire
I'm having the same question.
The microsoft website nolonger has the drivers.
I tried downloading Xpadder to map my 360 RB2 "portable" drum kit (with USB cord).
Xpadder see's my drums, but I have not been able to do any "mapping" or "key mapping". A bit confused about that whole thing.
Sorry, I have searched these threads and tried for three nights! Can anyone please help?
Thanks!

Re: using regular controller for frets on fire
Well, my MadCatz portable RB drumkit works just fine. I'm not sure if there's a difference between the portable RB and portable RB2. I tried it with my sisters laptop, but it didn't work. I was kind of worried until I took it home and plugged it into my desktop and the window "new device is installed and ready" or whatever it says.
I think it might have something to do with my Logitech controller drivers that I installed. The disk that came with it has some sort of Microsoft generic controller drivers.

I colored the orange fret in my RockBand Theme MAGENTA.

Re: using regular controller for frets on fire
O.K., Yeah!
I have the madcatz as well! And my computer does recognize my device and says it is ready to use, I just can't play any of the songs.
Maybe my problem isn't the controller, but mapping the controller.
How do you "map" a controller?
You have played Frets on Fire with your Madcatz right? What version of FoF do you use? I am using FoFiX 3.1.00
Thanks for your response and help!!!
---- EDIT ----
Hey THanks for the help!
I got it working.
Man! These madcatz really need you to beat the crap out of them!!!!
Later dude, off to jam some mastodon or something!

Re: using regular controller for frets on fire
You shouldn't have to hit them that hard. For whatever reason, sometimes my hits don't register unless I use JoyToKey and bind my drum pads to keyboard keys. It works perfectly that way. In frets on fire I map my drum keys to some out of the way keys like the 1-5 on the numpad, and then in JoyToKey I set my drum pads 1-5 to the corresponding numpad keys.
