Here's a simple little program I whipped up to use the Rock Bad drums as a MIDI controller. I'll have a video up sometime later. NOTE - You'll need the .NET 2.0 Framework.
Note: I'm not providing any support for this program. It's up for those who want a MIDI solution.

EDIT: Since it appears my program is complete crap, I now redirect you to somebody who's developed a much better piece of software (and probably spent much longer than fifteen minutes developing it). Enjoy!
Hmmm, looks like XNA. Is it?
Yes it is.
Does this work with the PS3 version?
I keep getting an error "has encountered a problem and needs to close."
Rock Bad? Representative of your playing style?
Measley: No support for the PS3 controller yet. Seeing as I don't have one I don't know what buttons are assigned to what or if the controller is even recognized the way my program is set up right now.
Hi there,
Great work on this!
I'm wondering if you might be interested in helping me diagnose why my rb kit isn't working with my xbox 360.
I called tech support and they said it's just a defective kit. But I can't get a replacement before it's released in Canada... so, sadly, i have some time.
If not, no worries. Thanks anyways.

Mine keeps crashing out... email me for the crash log if you please
There is hope for using the PS3 version. I could use some other apps, including xpadder, with it to route its game controller messages into keyboard messages for use with FL Studio and a drumkit VST or soundfont. Check the vid:

I\'ve been looking around a lot -- is there currently ANY way to use the PS3 kit for MIDI?
I keep getting an error "has encountered a problem and needs to close." I am using the xbox 360 version
this is not working for me every time i try to open it it said error need to close
Crashes every time on two different computers.

Looks like you need to have XNA installed for it to work.
