Audio outputs from external synths, drum machines, etc tend to be
1V pk-pk. MOTM likes 10V pk-pk. Here are some things you can do.

a) use the headphone out jack! On most synths, this will put out about 5V
pk-pk.
Not the best but ∗much∗ better than 1V pk-pk.

b) use the SEND buss out of your mixer. Treat MOTM modules like an external
reverb or something. Just crank the SEND OUT to max.

c) Use a DI box. I use a Tech21 SansAMP box.

d) save $$ for MOTM triple pre-amp.
