Hello Group,
My name is Jim, I am the proud owner of an SDS-8.  I trigger this 
fine brain from an old Oberheim Stretch DX.  I am not a drummer, but 
this piece of gear fits in perfectly with my drum machine/synth 
collection.

The OBDX is the boss, the audio outs of individual drums I choose 
trigger the Simmons.  The rest of the chain runs from the MIDI out of 
the OBDX to a Frostwave sequencer, Moogerfooger cp-251 and onto a 
Realistic MG-1, a Moog Prodigy, an Octave Cat, and a Moog Satellite.

I'm looking to make my set up a little more portable by racking some 
of the gear.  Has anyone ever rack-mounted their sds-8?  I'm thinking 
a slide out type drawer would work perfectly, once sized up and 
whatnot, but I wanted to see if any of you guys had any suggestions.

Later,
Jim
