Hooking Everything Up
The pads, cymbals, and hi-hat pedal each have a 1/8" plug that connects to the ¼" jacks on
the rear of the DM5 module. The inputs on the rear of the DM5 module are labeled (hi hat,
kick, snare, etc.) Connect each pad to its corresponding input. If you have additional drum
pads or cymbals you'd like to use, feel free to connect them to the remaining 5 inputs on the
DM5 module.
If you're using headphones to monitor the drums, you can plug them into the "phones" jack
on the front of the DM5 module. If you're not using headphones, you'll need some speakers
to hear the output of the DM5 module. The speakers can be hooked up to the "Main
Output" jacks on the module.
If you have a MIDI keyboard, sound module, or MIDI sequencing computer, you can hook
it up to the DM5 module using standard 5-pin MIDI cables.
Finally, use the included Velcro straps to neatly fasten all cables to the poles.
Refer to the DM5's reference manual for how to configure the module itself.
