The Mad Catz Cymbal Pack also features a very simple and painless set-up. I was able to set mine up within about then minutes, and I never had any trouble adjusting the cymbals to where they felt comfortable to me. The only problem with the packing is the fact that it only comes with two cymbals. As I mentioned earlier, the drum set can support up to three extra cymbals, so I had to wait until I could found someone who was also in need of only one cymbal before I could get my third cymbal. Also, the cymbal kit only works the Rock Band 2 drum set, so those who are still clinging to their Rock Band 1 drum set get the shaft.

Mad Catz’s cymbal kit really does do a lot of cool things by expanding upon the Rock Band peripherals, and they are surprisingly very durable. I’m sure some moron will find a way to break there’s in half, but those of us who don’t play the game with superhuman strength should be fine. If you are looking to upgrade your Rock Band experience bit without shelling out the cash and lack of a social life that are a result from purchasing the Rock Band Stage Kit, then you will have a great time with Mad Catz Cymbal Pack.
