OT: schematics and/or service manual for Drum-X

OT: schematics and/or service manual for Drum-X

2012-07-12 by jesper

Hi friends,

the next piece in my drumming arsenal has given up the ghost. My Pearl
Drum-X is suddenly silent. I get trigger indications on all channels and
I can alter all settings but I get no sounds from the outputs on the
back (neither individual nor mix). If I add headphones I can hear sounds
far away in the sonic distance when the volume is cranked to a maximum.
I'm suspecting some amplifying circuit (without having opened it yet)...

Please let me know if you have the schematics or similar.

No, I discovered it last night and wanted to check with the "GODS" first. :)

Googling wasn't helping much and thinking of how hard it was obtaining
the Syncussion manual I guess they're not Roland or Yamaha in that sense...
