RE: [DTXpress] Re: What is this "Magic Box" in the Pic's section? And what does it do?

Steve, 
 
Did you ever see my cable management system that I had on my old kit. It had
a series of remote jack points (six points with 5 TRS jacks) that came back
to a central "hub" of 40 TRS jacks. The hub mounted just below the three
Dtxpress II modules. I then used 12" and 24" patch cords to connect the pads
to the remote jacks and 12" TRS cables from the central hub to the module.
If I wanted to switch a pad from one module to another, I just changed the
patch cables at the module. At one point I posted them at this group, but
removed them. I know they were posted at Vdrums and are still there. You
have to do a search under "cable management" I think to get to them. If I
ever get the chance, I may do something similar for my current kit. All the
internal cabling was TRS and all jacks were TRS.
