I say even without conneting the hihat controller there is a problem.

I connect pin 3 directly to pin 4 and it goes to max and connected input channel starts to generate signal but this only occours with kick channel

Yes, I say the maximum value should never be infringed.
Connect pin 3 directly to pin 4 = maximum



but there kick channel starts to send signal when I do that. Any idea about the source of this problem?

Synthex is telling you the truth. Reason that only kick is effected in your case is because the Kick input is tested right after HiHat controller input. If the "saturation/overspilling" is not very strong, it only effects the Kick input. Use a resistor as Synthex suggested so that voltage level on HiHat controller input doesn't go over ~2.5V.

Are there any more kits for sale?

Deadline for order?

Price including shipment to Sweden?

Maybe there could be a sticky for these questions?

/Kristofer

Ps. Are there layouts for all in onePCB's available for download? Ds.

Thanks Dmitri ;)
The best way is to change the 100 ohms on board (on pin3 32inputs connector) by a 2Kohms or 4.7Kohms.

That is correct if you use a potentiometer based HiHat pedal. If you use an optotransistor or optoresistor based pedal, than this resistor should be left at 100 ohms to drive enough current into a LED.

Yes, then 1Kohms is a good compromise ... ;)

Yes, there are more kits for sale (the new 2.6 version)
They will be available very soon. ;)
The price include shipping anywhere in the world.
