Re: Betr: Re: [Simmons Drums] cranking up the SDS-V output

As I said: They WERE expensive THESE DAYS, only switchcraft being available. 
And the female XLR was half as much more than the male, like shoes in a shoe 
shop TODAY...
B.t.W.: An XLR cable has no +, nor on pin 3 neither on pin 2. It is only a 
cable. I think you mean adaptors.

Thanks for the lesson! All my XLR-cables are marked either 2+ or 3+ to
allow for easier patching... (Though I still wonder about that SDS-7
with serial 250...)

I don't find the XLR's that expensive. I've found a good supplier. Sure,
it's not switchcraft, but I'm not going on a world tour either. If
you're a greedy bastard there is noone stopping you from hard wiring to
the inside either. :D

BTW, with a lot of will and some force (or as we say in Sweden, "vilja,
v\ufffdld och vaselin") I managed to squeeze the d**n Paragon brain into my
rack today. Next day off will probably mean some MTM-patching...
