Hi Jesper, 
about Delays , don't you have any midi patch bay ?
Do you have an MTM ? (bc it can produce a delay if crossing too many parameters between the trigger & the brain especially if the signal is routed through midi options ...... 

Bye ,
Patrice.

  to be soldered into the SDS... or can it be used as an external box?

  I've built an external box for mine and has promised Paul some pics of the
  unit...

  His new version will accept higher trigger voltages, but midi2sdsII does the
  work as well, though not with full "impact". I built an external box to be
  able to patch the outputs around to my different drum synths. Have tested it
  with SDS-V, SDS-2, SDS-IV, EH Crash Pad, Tama TS-305 and Pollard Syndrum
  Quad 478 this far and it's only the Pollard that won't accept the trigs.
  I've checked it on an oscilloscope and will fiddle around with gate time to
  see if it can be helped.

  But as someone else asked someone else here - are you familiar with a
  soldering iron it's not really hard. If not, it's science fiction! ;)

  Expect some delays though... Don't know if it's my setup and/or the midi2sds
  but I can clearly hear the delays from pressing a key to hearing the *piouw*
  from one of the synths...

  electronically yours, jesper
