Ok,
Set up the kits to play... inputting all your desired pads.
Get a stereo 1/8" heaphone jack to two mono (left and right) 1/4" 
adapter cord or make one using adaptors.
Take the left and right audio output from one module and feed it into 
the aux input on front of the other module with the cord you just made.
PLAY MY FRIEND, PLAY!

No need for expensive things or MIDI, just a $10 cord from Radio Shack!
MIDI does not transmit any sounds, just data that says who did what, 
where, how hard and for how long. Kinda like Penthouse Forum.

gord.
