May 11 at 15:16 comment added ojs An important part of cajon pedal is the soft flat beater that is different from regular bass drum one. Cajon is not a drum and is played slightly differently even though it can fill a similar role in a band.

May 11 at 14:23 comment added Tim Most folk will use a bass drum pedal, sort of backwards, using the same idea as a double pedal arrangement. You could simply hit the side/front with your palm, but if your legs are short enough, you may get away with your idea. It won't be easy though. Best to experiment well before the gig.
