It will seem a bit confusing if you've never used it before, but you'll eventually get the hang of it. Put all your songs in the "songs" subdirectory, controls are z-s-x-d-c-f-v-g-b.

Keitaro: $30 is a good price, that's what I paid for mine off of JapanVideoGames. AFAIK, all the pedal does is plug into an audio in port on the controller and make a noise whenever you hit the pedal. I'm still trying to find somethin,g but if you can find something that'll be completely silent until you hit it when plugged into a 1/8" audio jack.

Tenaciousmonk: Why don't you just PM me and I'll be more than happy to help.

i have a kbm question. if i have a midi keyboard i can get the midi to usb adapter and supposedly that will work with kbmII. but what accounts for that extra button thingy thats on the real controllers?

Milza · Trick Member Joined: 05 Oct 2002

I'm not sure about those that don't, but many MIDI keyboards actually do have an effector on them.

ummm i was wondering. i have the ems usb adapter. i have heard that the topway drummania controller is incompatible. is this true? i thought all psx controllers are the same circuit

OK so nobody has answered this question yet. KBM + USB ADAPTER + YAMAHA KEYBOARD = works, i assume. but the yamaha keyboard has no effector or anythign resembling an effector. is anybody in this situation? how can this be compensated for?

well, I sprung for the official IIDX controller and can't wait to get it.

I got my Official IIDX controller and it is AMAZING!!!!!!

but I still want a separate controller for 5 key and im low on cash so im going for the cheap alternative. Has anyone seen this or had one? It's called the Beat-Con. www.toysnjoys.com sells it for $79.99 but i found a site that sells it for $18!!!! also, they sell the DJ man for $18. so, which is the better of the 2. and dont tell me to buy the official lol

Any good?

Where did you find this Beat-Con for $18? If it's like the ASCII controller it resembles, it's probably okay but not that great. More accurate to the arcade than the DJ Man, I'm sure. The DJ Man has piano-style keys, and that's not what beatmania is like.

P.S. Your IIDX controller is going to be much better for 5-key than any controller you can buy for $20. The only one that might be able to compete with it is the DJ Station Pro (at least $60), and even that might fall short.

yeah sorta a noob question not really.
I have a offical konami IIDX controller for IIDX. But I've heard about people modding them, can someone send me a link to what the best way is to do this. Is it more than just sanding the keys? or by modding are they takling about being fancy and changing the colors of the controller

. Anyway, a little feedback would be appreciated, someone sent me to this thread to find it, so here I am. Thanks again.

Has anyone ever had trouble with the turntable getting somewhat stuck? I was playing today and realized that it I could spin it about half way around and then it would get pretty hard to move and fealt like it was grinding against something but i couldn't figure out what was happening.
