Ext Triggers
Does anyone know if a Korg PS-3 (https://www.korg.com/au/products/accessories/ps_3/) should work to trigger a pad on an Alesis Samplepad 4 (https://www.alesis.com/products/view2/samplepad-4)? I've tried all I can think of and it is not doing a thing. The pads all work ok.
Comments
I would say no. The korg pedal is a digital switch (like a button on your midi controller).
Samplepad would expect an analog trigger signal (like an e-drumpad).
But this is just my guess...
You could make it act like one by adding a small electronic circuit using a battery, a diode, a capacitor and a few resistors if that's your thing. It won't be velocity sensitive though 😄
What's a diode
Or just a piezzo underneath some soft/rubberised material... for about £/$10... without the pedal... and that would be touch sensitive
So this is a totally different beast, and more what the Samplepad needs?

Would one of these work using a normal guitar lead?

Hey, I love the idea of placing it under the footswitch rubber pad.
Makes it a dual function footswitch 😁👍🏼
Yep, these should be ok.
With standard mono cable - tho samplepad is apparently supporting dual zones, may worth checking out
Yes I saw that, an A and B setting. Not sure of the point of that but I'll give this a go and hopefully save buying a new pedal.
@Ailerom
To avoid ‘machine gun’ effect... so f.e you can have snare variations or snare + side stick... usually that’s built in a single drumpad, but if you are going for legwork it could be 2 pedals with a Y cable into samplepad
Tho it is optional, dual zone inputs afaik always compatible with single zone triggers.
I get it now, the samplepad has 2 layers per pad and you can select ExtA or B.
