Is the magic box something which will take two piezos (from two pads)
and connect to one "stereo" input such that if one pad is struck a
signal will be sent to the DTX box with the switch open, and if the
other piezo is struck it will send that signal to the DTX box but with
the switch closed, thus enabling a completely different sound?  If so,
while it could technically be done, you wouldn't be able to hit both
pads at the same time (well you could, but I am not sure you would
like the resulting sound)!
