midi2cv8 -> Simmons SDS-8

Successfully interfaced my Simmons SDS-8 drum brain to my PAiA 
midi2cv8. Had to jumper one pin on the DIN-8 connector to get it to 
work with a DIN-5 plug (forgot to order a plug last time around). As 
soon as my CZ-1 gets here I'll have velocity-sensitive analog drums.

Only one problem: the mid tom is now dead. The trigger light flashes 
but nothing comes out. I probably zapped something ESD sensitive 
while handling it. Does anyone have the schematic? I only have the 
owners manual.


Good thing there are four identical circuits right next to it. It's 
just a bitch to pull the board out. At least nothing is bolted to the 
panel... 8/
