Bought a used Megadrum with inputs not labeled

Postby glenn.szymanski » Tue Oct 11, 2016 3:23 pm

So, I bought this Megadrum used 2 years ago. I've tried hooking up my Roland PD-120 pads and Yamaha PCY 155 cymbals with little luck. I guess my first problem is how do I know which inputs are which if the guy that built this didn't label them?

I'm also waiting on Dmitri or someone to help with a version of Megadrum manager that will work on my Macbook Pro which is stuck at OS 10.6.4

Any help would be appreciated. thanks!

I guess the easiest way it to assign each input a unique note and then connect a trigger to each input and see what inputs are triggered.
What firmware version is it running?

It's running 20160406

I updated it with my roommate's newer Macbook Pro, which I'm able to run Megadrum Manager on. But I can't borrow their laptop all the time to do work with the Megadrum module.

I can only test MDM with recent versions of Mac OS. Either upgrade your Mac OS or run Linux or Windows in as a VM (e.g. in VirtualBox) and run MDM from there. Did you identify inputs?
