values will work fine. Please do not go below 6kΩ on your expression pedal's
potentiometer impedance.
EXPRESSION PEDAL FIXED VOLUME DIP Switch – Inside the Crash Pad is
a DIP switch labeled S3, EXP FIXED VOLUME; it is located just above the
OUTPUT jack. When the DIP switch is set to the ON position (towards the edge
of the unit) and a plug is inserted into the EXP. PED jack, the Crash Pad's volume
envelope is disabled, allowing the Crash Pad to continuously send the output of
its filter to the OUTPUT jack. This setting lets you use the Crash Pad's filter
without providing a trigger signal. Please note: the DECAY knob is inactive when
the DIP switch is set to ON. S3 is set by default at the factory to the OFF position
(towards the center of the unit). In the OFF position, a trigger action is required
to use the Crash Pad. The fixed volume setting is only available when a plug is
inserted into the EXP. PED jack and S3 is set to ON.
9V Power Jack – Although the Crash Pad accepts 9V Batteries, EHX supplies
your Crash Pad with an Electro-Harmonix 9.6DC-200BI power supply. Plug the
output of the AC adapter into the 9V power jack located at the top of the Crash
Pad. The Crash Pad draws 22mA at 9VDC with a center negative plug. Please do
not exceed 10VDC on the Crash Pad's power jack.
- REMOVING BOTTOM COVER - CHANGING THE BATTERY -
To replace the 9V battery or change the setting of S3, remove the 4 screws on
the bottom of the Crash Pad. Once the screws are removed, take off the bottom
plate. While the bottom plate is off you risk damaging a component. Please do
not touch the circuit board, except to change the setting for S3, the EXP FIXED
VOLUME switch.
