Java Programming

Hi,

I am making a simple drum simulator, and yesterday I asked a question on how to play .wav files. I got that part of my program figured out, and I got it so it can take user input (through a keyboard) to simulate drum sounds.

Now I am asking if there is a way to use a game controller (preferably a rock band drum controller) as an input device. I've looked at the jinput API, but i don't know if it provides the functionality I am looking for.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
