If you have some soldering experience, you may try something like this. I haven't try but it might work. Find something like a old roland TR505. Open it and replace the switches (these are switches not pad with velocity) with jack connectors. You can then connect footpedals to these and configure the beast to send up to 16 notes messages. layout is up to you and you still can add the kickdrum or Hhat to your loops.
