SEVEN FIFTY KAY ! ! ! (no star power)
I know a lot of people are getting this achievement now with this song. It's All Nightmare Long from the Metallica Death Magnetic DLC. By far, the easiest song to reach 750k on. I mean, people are sight-reading 800k+ on it! So, I wanted to finally EARN my "Now That's Impressive" achievement by getting it without using star power. :-)
As always, thanks for watching!
(For Verse 1A my sticking is mostly a right-hand-led double stroke roll, but with one diddle thrown in so that I could start leading with my left hand to make certain pad transitions easier. The pad transitions are O Y R G B R G, with sticking RRLLRR LLRRLL RLRR LLRRLL RRLLRR LLRR LLRRLLRR... On Verse 2A I screwed it up and just tried to go straight right-handed double stroke and you can see I lose the multiplier because that made going from green to blue difficult because of the sticks having to cross.)
FAQ:
----
Q: How does it work?
A: Everything is explained in detail here: http://egyokeo.com/midihero
Q: How do you do 3-note chords?
A: All "two adjacent note" power chords are mapped to the top 4 pads, so with two sticks I can play any 3-note chord except GYO. But I can get that with one stick in left hand and two fingers on right hand.
Q: How do you do whammy and star power?
A: I use a bass drum pedal on my right foot to activate star power, and a hi-hat pedal on my left foot to control whammy depth.
Q: How do you hold notes?
A: My MIDI Hero software has an auto-hold feature for every note hit because it's more natural for a drummer to play that way. It's not a good feeling to mash sticks into drum pads to hold notes.
Q: Why do the notes "hit" so late?
A: I use a 145ms setting for the in-game HDTV Lag Calibration feature to counter the "controller lag" I have with my setup. I use it to make the sweet spot of the notes match the sound of the music, not when the notes cross the row of circles. That way, I play what I hear, but the notes burst into flames really late. This only applies to my GH2 videos and pre-update GH3 videos.
Q: Which video editor do you use?
A: My earlier videos were made with Windows Movie Maker. My latest videos are made Ulead MediaStudio Pro 8.
Q: How much does this cost?
A: The drumKat is a pro-quality MIDI drum pad set. These days, they run about $1k but I bought my set years ago. I also use a PC to run my custom home-brew MIDI Hero software to interpret the drum events. Then the "XIM" and "XFPS" add another $100+. This is not made for the masses. This is a one-of-a-kind setup.
Q: Do you play real drums? Are you in a band?
A: Yes, I've been playing drums since 1986. I have been in various bands from Jazz to Ska over the years. Right now I'm in the Detroit-based ska band The Exceptions.
Q: Are you getting Rock Band?
A: I got it, and should have my mod working with it soon. Then I'll probably have a lot more videos to post!
Q: Is "MIDI Hero" available to the public?
A: I plan on making it available for download in the coming weeks. Stay tuned.

Well, I-uh...suppose I've experienced everyting, now. Seeing as nothing will ever again impress me in my lifetime, I'm gonna go off myself before the crippling tsunami of "everything else being disappointing" takes too much of a toll.
