Subject: Re: [Simmons Drums] SDSV Sound Output

From: "tdecker1271" <tom@...>

That's exactly what the problem was. It works great with each drum
going to a seperate channel in my board.

My next question would be: When a module is plugged into slot 5, it is
constantly triggered. I know about the little black tab in the socket
on the backplane, but it is missing from this one. Would this cause
the module to get slightly off track and ground out or self trigger?
All other slots work great, and they have the little tab in them from
what I can tell. If I have to, I can fashion something to fix it. Any
suggestions?

drum mics and console (sweet dream...). To get a fat output (line
level), remove all seven 68 ohm resistors on the backpanel (wired
between pin 1 and 3 on all seven individual outputs). And if you have
your SDSV opened already, you can change the output wiring.
