making a drum trigger is too easy

[Lorddiagram]

Last night I picked up a piezo speaker from Radio Shack ($1.49), tore it up and duct-taped it in a broken BOSS guitar-pedal. I ran the Piezo's two wires to the pedal's output jack. It works great as a bass-kick-pedal for my D4. Infact the trigger is more sensitive than many of the store bought triggers-(which, by the way, are no more than a Piezo element hooked to a 1/4 jack with some plastic or rubber around it.) It is very esay to hook the piezo's up -they are not even sensitive to which way you wire them (doesn't matter if positive and negative are reversed.)

I wish had taken many people's advice and tried this a long time ago.
