•Connect your electronic drum set's triggers to the corresponding inputs on the module with the appropriate 1/4" cables. Dual-zone pads or cymbals (e.g., a drum with head and rim triggers or a cymbal that can produce bow and bell sounds) will require TRS cables to trigger both zones.

•Plug 1/4” TRS cables from the MAIN OUT or AUX OUT to an amplifier, mixer, or speaker system. (For mono sound, you can connect only one output.)

•You can connect a set of 1/4” TRS headphones to the HEADPHONES OUTPUT.

•You can connect another audio device to the AUX IN using standard RCA cables.

See the included assembly poster for further instructions on setting up the DM10 Kit and connecting it to the DM10 module.
