making a speaker into a microphone

do you have a ground lift on the DI? That helps when mine buzzes.

Yeah. This was a hiss though. Not a buzz. We were running late and I had to move on and not play with the new toy.

Try sticking an XLR onto the speaker, then jacking it directly into a mic preamp (no DI).

Just curious.

TOMBER Digital Drummer has the best diy directions I've seen.

so there are no other options than cannibalizing a mic cord?

You can purchase neutrik connectors from most online music stores.
