Start MIDI sequence with foot pedal (Total NOOB question)

Hello,

So, I have a Kawai XD-5 with individual outs. The sequence is currently programmed on a Roland TR-505, after the guitar intro, I use a foot pedal to start the drum track. (I use the sampled drum pattern and then overdub real cymbals on open tracks). It would be easier to run the sequence from the DAW and sequence the synth parts along with the drums. I just can't grasp how to, or if I can, use a the foot pedal to start the sequence.

I have a couple of different computers and interfaces I can use:

WinXP, with an older Aardvark 4 in 4 out
Win10 laptop with a Behringer Uphoria
Win7 with Hammerfall HDSP5296

TIA!
