Today's craftiest video: Rock Band drums as real drum kit

We're sure other people have done it as well, but for those aspiring electronica performers who haven't yet made the plunge, YouTube member luksy has posted a video explaining how he used a handful of programs to turn the Rock Band drum kit hooked up to a PC into a working electronic drum kit.

Remember, this is just one example of how you can do it. We're working at finding the perfect setup for using our MacBook (via OS X) as a sound module for our 22-key midi keyboard and Rock Band drum set simultaneously - any suggestions would be appreciated. With the proper drum kit sound silencers, this can make for a pretty handy (although fairly minimal) portable gig setup. Video after the break.
