The guys at erdrum for free (or try
http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/DIY-edrums/ ) know a lot more
about glueing piezos to things & where, but I bought a cheap piezo and
wired it up to the DTXpress just to see & it worked fine.  Cost around
50p I think ($0.30).  Depending on how dead the material is that you
mount it on, you may find it works better one way round than the
other.  Also, don't forget you have the attenuation switch to play
with on the back of the module if you need to.
