Need Help - No Rim Signal

Postby NiklasW » Sun Apr 10, 2016 6:26 pm

Hey Guys

I want to test my new MegaDrum Module with my DIY Snare Drum but i dont get a Signal from the Rim-Piezo ?
The Head works fine and send a clear Signal through the module into Addictive Drums 2. I follow the instructions
from the soldering diagram but i think i make a little mistake but dont know where :/

Soldering at the MegaDrum Module:
Wire 34 to the tip
Wire 33 to the ring
Wire 15 and 16 to sleeve

Soldering at the Pad:
Head red wire to tip
Rim black wire to ring
Head black and rim red wire to Sleeve

Anyone see my mistake ?

Thanks

Soldering is correct provided you indeed soldered them as you described.
1. Maybe the rim piezo is bad? Swap the head and rim piezos and check.
2. Maybe wires are broken somewhere? Test continuity from the flat cable wire 33 to the black wire of the rim piezo and from wire 15 or 16 to the red wire of the rim piezo.
