Anyone know where I could get a single button midi controller that plays one note. Basically I am trying to make a bass drum pedal; very simple. So far all the websites I've found want to sell me boards w/ 24-36 outputs... I just want the one.

 

Here's one that should be ideal for what you need;

You will need a PIC chip and the ability to program it (or a friend that can program a PIC chip for you).
