I've always wanted to get a Rock Band setup going because I didn't really have a chance to play when I was a kid.
In my search for an overpriced (and surprisingly rare) Rock Band Drum Set, I found out that I can connect my dusty Simmons SD600 Electronic Drum Kit to my PS5 by using the relatively inexpensive Wii MIDI Pro Adapter (MPA) and a few tools. Many thanks to bookreader52 and u/Necessary_Bat_9491.
Join me as I fumble about getting this setup to work. :)
