Replacing drum pedal...with a real one?

[firemarth]

I keep hearing of people who are replacing the drum pedal that came with the game with a real drum pedal.
How does this possibly work?

And if it actually does, what kind do y'all use, and how much do they cost.
Assuming things aren't fixed up for the PS2 version, I'm gonna want to get one of these.

they fix up a real one so it works with the game. someone did it on scorehero, i'll find it.

an alternative if you don't want to find a button and wire stuff up yourself is to buy an electronic keyboard sustain pedal. That should work too, I think.

Does anyone know what fires the kick? could you use a electronic drum set kick pedal/pad with the audio wire trick?
