Saving for ND3p now look what impulsive me finally ended with, a standard 5 modules SDS-V brain. I thought I missed this one, but seller got in contact with me again after a long wait.

One module are in need of some probing and I’m wondering if Thierry or someone else ever did an redraw/tracing of the SDS-V?

I already downloaded the usual suspects from internet with the one from simmons museum being the most complete, but not too clear sadly.

Also missing a knob and 20 caps I’m wondering if anyone have updated links or contact info to get hold of these parts?

Plan is to add my MFB Drum-07 Hi-Hat/Cymbal (12HP) and Drum-08 Clap (8HP). According to Modular Grid they are +/- 30mA each so a simple 78L12/79L12 regulator pair might do the trick. Still in plan stages if I want to interface the ins&outs between MFB modules and the SDS-V brain tho.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that some of the SDS-V originally shipped with +/-12V. Anyone have information about why/when this changed? And if this is true, where the also changes on the modules one have to consider if one where to swap modules between units?

thanks

Ed rose provided me with a ton of SDSV caps and knobs a while back.
I had MFB modify an SEQ 01 to install in my SDSV.
works well.  i believe there was a 12 / 15 volt mod done on the MFB card to make it work.

Thanks guys, I’ve reach out to Ed privately through his studio page.

Nick, thanks for the inspiration with the build in sequencer. If my memory serves me it where on your site I read comments about some SDSV already coming with +/-12V, although this is more of academic interest as separate V modules are nearly impossible to find anyway.
