This may sound like a strange request!!!
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way of playing drum sounds using foot pads whilst playing guitar.
I am aware of foot stompers which have a piezo pick-up. What I am looking for is a pad or pads where I can play drums within my DAW. I don't mean starting and stopping drum patterns using the pads. I am looking to actually play the drum sounds with my feet whilst playing the guitar. Any suggestions ideas much appreciated.

Could you buy parts of an electronic drum kit? Bass drum and a foot trigger for a snare maybe?

They seem to be fresh out of cymbals for between the knees.

Thanks for the suggestions. Midi bass pedals definitely seem too expensive. That Alesis may be a possibilty I will have to investigate further. Parts of an electronic kit would be another possibility but also pretty expensive. I really just want a couple of foot pedals or pads that I could trigger say a kick and snare or kick and hi-hat in my DAW with.
Cheers for the input guys

You could always put a yamaha DD on the floor.

I'm not hip on all their models. I believe some have midi out (for different/better kits) While the cheapest / oldest cheapest models don't

Might be worth a try, I wonder if the pads would be robust enough for being stomped on though?tapper mike wrote:You could always put a yamaha DD on the floor.

Behringer FCB-1010 --> MidiYoke / MidiOx which changes the midi PgmChg to NoteOn commands

There's also the option of hacking a usb keypad/keyboard etc
