I don't remember exact models for the LED and phototransistor. D1 is 1N4148 and can actually be almost any model.

If it required batteries I would've shown it. It gets power from the module.

Should work with any module which supports variable HH pedals. But don't take my words for granted, I don't have these modules.

megadrum rocks !
It power the HH, fix your bad tempo, add some break when needed, play guitar if you miss one, make the coffe for you etc.
You better make one fast.
