    One of my Firs projects. I toked cheap guitar hero drums and disassembled from there the piezoelectric sensors and mounted them in to real drum set. In the video the girl playing the game in very low difficulty but the drums working good on medium as well.

    But its a world of fun for the kids, and me.

    Nice, If you want to make them really quiet, replace the skins and rubber pads with mesh heads.

    Can buy them or make them yourself out of window screen mesh. They are very effective. Plenty of videos and instructions on google and youtube.

    I builded this
    you can just disassemble your electric kit and put the piezoelectric sensors with extended wire to your big set of drums.
    but if you have electric kit you can just plug it to the Guitar Hero controller end it will works.
    here some info about electric drums :
