There are two versions, one is a ring and the other is a disc for total muffling. For the purpose of triggering you'd want the total muffling ones shown here:
After that just pick out some cables of your choice and a power supply for the module and you're ready to go. You may also want to get an e-drum or keyboard amp for audible sound option.
