Exactly what i wanted to know!
Now that i know i'm not the only one in this situation, it's probably
not a defect... well... it is, but they were probably not ment to
work together. It's probably why they don't mention the SDS-8 very
often in the MTM user's manual...
I will try directly connecting to one channel in the sequencer input.
If it works, i'll just have to make a sequencer input jack to five
1/4" (TS) jacks rig.
Thanks for your response Michal,
Norm.

you right, it must be problem with voltage. But I think if you
use "sequencer input" in your SDS8, everything should be ok.
Theoretically, 'couse I don't do this yet. When I use "sequencer
input" in my SDSV and SDS7 I haven't any problems. Of course SDSV &
SDS7 has normal jack inputs, unfortunately SDS8 don't.
