Ion Audio IED09 Drum Rocker Set for Wii | zZounds

After you master RockBand with this kit's optimal playability, you can learn to drum for real with the Alesis DM5 sound module.

I have an ION audio drum rocker set for rock band and the Wii, but outside of my rock band career I’ve only ever played guitar. However as Freddie Mercury once put it, I want to break free.

I want to say that when I purchased it a couple of decades ago I did so under the belief that it was mostly a real electronic drum set. It certainly elevated my rock band fun.

It is basically what is pictured in the listing, but with three cymbals and two kicks. Each piece is connected to the gaming module with a guitar cable connector.

My question: If I want to turn this into an actual set, is there a decent module that I can pick up that will act as an amp and (I suppose) synthesizer? I’d love to just spin up some tunes without worrying about the Wii and get better with them as actual drums.

Thanks!

    Hey, everyone, quick update and thanks. I know a guy out west who happened to have a DM10 and we worked out a trade.

    Short story-I’m rocking out on some headphones in my attic space.

    Thanks again, being finally untethered from the old Wii games is amazing!
