Abstract: The present invention is a device for use on a playing surface by a musician using a foot to generate an electrical signal indicative of a bass drum. The device generally comprises a body having a horizontally disposed base, a pivot body secured to the bottom surface of the base, and a strike body secured to the base. The pivot body is adapted to rest upon playing surface allowing body to pivot relative to the playing surface between a first position where the strike body is off the playing surface and a second position where the strike body hits or impacts the playing surface. The device further comprises electronic sensing circuitry adapted to generate an electrical signal indicative of a base drum in response to the strike body hitting the playing surface.
