The cap is really ugly. Dave used a 0.47µF but suitable for 10000000 Volts or something. No idea why, may be he got these very cheap.
Good luck with the nuts, don't shortcut something on the backpanel. Duct tape helps (between PCB and the jacks...).
Yours

Subject: Final (?) update: Re: [Simmons Drums] SDS-III separate outs vs. mix out
The feed from all four voices to the mix out is at the very bottom of
the pcb. Each channel al fed there through the "ugly big cap". One cap
had come loose and there were more than one break in the line itself. No
wonder it didn't work!
A couple of fly-wires later it's up and running as expected. Now the
task of replacing 50 nuts and 4 screws remain... :S
