Steve,

I am not familiar with the Sherpa, but it seems to be a dual piezo pad
so it needs two inputs.  If you want to feed the second pad through
the kick, then the kick needs to be plugged into input 9/10.  I am not
sure there is any benefit to doing it that way - just plug the second
piezo of the Sherpa into 9/10 anyway and leave the kick on input 1.

Keith.
