Using a dance pad as a MIDI interface

I got an idea to use my dance pad as a MIDI controller using Rejoice to convert the HID keypresses into MIDI notes. I can’t find a working download link or any info about Rejoice, so that you’ll have to find yourself if you ever want to try this. (hint: p2p)

Oh yeah, and excuse the crappy dancing.

Edit: Since I’ve been getting a lot of Google hits on this post looking for dance pad to midi converters, check this out: midity
