Here we go,

What you need is a extra 40-pins chip socket, a resistor or diode and a Dremel-tool.

Instructions will be on top of each photo.

Thats it.

Don't take the Atmega out of the socket!
From now on your Atmega an the new 40-pins socket should stay together!
Insert the new socket with the chip into the Megadrum board and keep your fingers crossed.

Hope it will work out for you..

Regards,

Rob.
