Re: Please help with grounding (please)

2003-05-29 by Bill Sequeira

The Modcan adapter module routes the 1/4" jack grounds to the power distro
module through a regular Modcan power module interface connector with
only the green wire present, the assumption being that the power system
will take care of the ground.

Hence no need for an external banana grounding jack.

I presume the Synth.com adapter module does the same if I remember
correctly.

Regards,

Bill
