You could use OSculator for that purpose as well, but I think Ableton Lives midi effects are giving you a better control and if you want to switch between presets you can automate those switches e.g. I can edit which notes are being created for each drum pad and I can send velocity as well, which to be honest wasn’t that useful, as the Wii-Drums are not sending that accurate velocity values and a very ‘quiet’/low velocity values – it is useable if you edit the velocity through the VELOCITY MIDI EFFECT in Ableton Live to a smaller and higher range, but if you are playing electronic music I guess you would be happier if you find a concept where you don’t necessarily need different velocity for your sounds. I use Ableton Live for triggering my samples (and in my video for recording and looping the beat I play), Ableton Live receives MIDI notes via an internal virtual connection (IAC driver) which are being send by OSculator.

Of course Max for Live is always a way to go as well, but as I have used OSculator for nearly a decade now on numerous shows and it never crashed or did anything weird, this is definitely a solution I can recommend as a stable solution.

There are Apps for Windows as well, which will work with the Wiimote but I can’t say if they are any good for working with the Wii-Drums.

#OSCULATOR ABLETON X32 SOFTWARE#

I am on a Mac, so this guide only works for OSX, as the software OSculator which translate the signals from the Wii-Drums/Wiimote is only for Mac. It is know working much better then before, still latency is an issue but it’s now much better then it was before and I could start thinking again about using a move-able drum set-up for shows.

A few weeks ago I stumbled over a forum where people were discussing that issue, this way I found out that the software, I was using to connect my Wiimote was updated to work with the Wii-Drums and gave it another try. I tried if I could just hit them a bit earlier but this wasn’t working at all. I used the Wiimote in conjunction with a Wii-Guitar, so I was looking into Wii-Drums and got some 2nd hand ones of Ebay for, I think it was 15 Euros.īUT – the latency was to high and even just using them for just one song as a special effect wasn’t an option.

As I’m playing a hybrid kit with a Drumkat and Roland triggers, all my electronic drum sounds are coming from Ableton Live anyways. Using acoustic drums would have ment to have multiple sending/receiving audio units and set-up costs would have been very high and would have been not very handy at all – that’s why I thought about midi drums. As I’m standing while playing in this band anyways and wanted to be even more pro-active, able to move and dance on stage, I thought this was a good idea but hard to realize.

Some years ago I was thinking about how to make my bands ( Ego vs Emo ) performance more lively I had this idea about creating a drum set-up which would allow me to move around on stage.
