MOTM

hello:
i seem to recall a discussion a week or 2 back regarding midi to trigger 
devices and there was talk of the kenton pro-kadi. i looked into one of these 
and ended up not buying one because it seemed to me that one had to install 
the d-sub like connector to whatever one wanted to trigger. now i know that 
this makes sense if one is trying to trigger one unit (say a tr-808) but can 
this unit be used to trigger say....several modules ? i was unable to figure 
out how. i hope i'm wrong. thanks in advance.
regards,
anton

The D-Sub connector is merely an economical way of having a lot of channels 
of triggers on one connector.  You can make or buy a cable that has a D-Sub 
on one end and then a fanout to 1/4" phone plugs (or any other connector) on 
the other end to plug into whatever combination of gear you want.  For 
example, you could plug a few channels into a Simmons drum brain, and then 
plug the rest of them into your MOTM.
