Hi Guys and Girls

So I'm going to use the new Acoustic Drum Triggers (RT-10K/S/T) to trigger video from drums.
I will connect them to a ROLAND TMC-6 TRIGGER MIDI CONVERTER..
And now for the big dumb question - How do I connect the TMC-6 to my computer and to the modul8????????
I've never used a midi before so please, please, please try to explain so I will understand..
What kind of cable?
I'm using a MAC Lap TOP G4 1.5 ghz.
It runs the modul8 great.
Will it be harder with the midi?
THANK YOU!!!

you need a midi interface (midi <-> usb), m-audio has some good ones! then it's really easy to configure modul8

Do you mean some thing like the: M-Audio Midisport 2x2 (Macintosh and Windows)?

Is this a good one?

good one, I don't know but it will work of course! you don't really need an expensive interface if cheaper works too

Greetings,

I have a M-audio UNO http://www.zzounds.com/item--MDOUNO that works just fine with all my apps that use MIDI, including M8. Using a device like this should have no noticeable impact on your computer's performance.

Cheers,
Justin

Thank you so much guys and Girls!
Any last tips or thoughts on how to work with the drum triggering?
I heard they can be too fast for the video..
