Re: Replacement Yamaha Parts

The FSR is basically a switch. The flexiforce sensors look like 
piezos.They seem to work just like them, although they may be more 
sensitive.
My considered opinion is that they would not work. Does anyone 
remember the post about do-it-yourself pads that includes a link to a 
source for ribbon switches???? That is what you want.
