So I took a couple of pics just for fun, for desktop backgrounds on my PC (1280x1024) and my laptops (1024x768). :)
The first pic is the desktop background image. It shows the back of the modified Simmons SDS-800 - clearly visible are the MIDI jacks, one of which is in an expanded hole that used to house the (attached, ick) power cord, and the other was drilled new. The new power connector is a standard PC type (Why doesn't all gear use these? You hear me, Roland? What were you thinking?!?) mounted in what used to be the power switch. You can also see the orange "MIDI activity" oversize LED mounted in what used to be a headphone jack, and over on the right you can see the silver 1/4" jacks, four new trigger-outs. :)
The next pic is the laptop background - an overhead shot showing the Simmons, Alesis MMT-8 MIDI sequencer, and some FX pedals.
The third and last pic shows my Roland (er, *cough*, Mazda) SH-101, newly fitted with the Synhouse MIDIJACK. I'm pretty happy with the performance - it would be nice if it could do legato glides, a la TB-303, but I can do those manually, so no big problem. Certainly a big improvement over sequencing the SH-101 using CV/Gate from the Waldorf Pulse Plus!
