"In Frac rack panel.
has 2 drum tones and has been modified. one now goes much lower than the other for bass drum sounds. they both now also go high enough to squeal!
jacks are for trigger in and audio out. trim pots have been brought to the front as pots and are for pitch, resonance, and tone. includes a power cable for connecting to a standard Blacet type power supply, +/- 15 volts." more info

"i modified this so that external signals can be used for the sample and hold instead of noise which is hard-wired. for the jack i just disconnected the QUANTIZED jack wires and used it because i never used that feature and didn't want to drill a new hole. i can put it back the way it was if the winning bidder wishes (but it's better this way IMO! now instead of random voltages you can insert a sine for stair-stepping for example). see the picture of the wires going to the resistors. also, when building this kit (i'm an electronics technician with a degree so please don't worry about build quality) i troubleshot for weeks trying to get it all working until i finally found the issue, a board fault, a millimeter sized gap in a trace, and fixed it. this often occurs when a particle falls during a manufacturing stage, the rest of the board is fine. was a real learning lesson finding it! see the picture with a wire soldered directly onto the circuit board. it's on there rock solid and not going anywhere. module functions perfectly.
