Choose the correct official path
The $69.99 Drum Brain with MIDI Roadie bundle includes the multi-platform Drum Controller Unit and the Roadie adapter. It is the direct official choice for players bringing an existing electronic kit. The $24.99 standalone MIDI Roadie requires a Stage Tour Drum Controller Unit you already own.

Pre-purchase checklist
- Confirm the kit exposes a physical MIDI Out port or class-compliant USB MIDI.
- Buy the combined hub unless you already own the Stage Tour Drum Controller Unit.
- Select the Drum Brain platform mode or edition that matches the target system.
- Plan for in-game pad mapping and calibration after the software is available.
