it is the contact that stays touching the tip of the plug. The output must
be one of the outer pairs of connections.

Also while the ring mod is a passive device, it is also a heavy load -
notably more so than most synth modules. If a synth module is designed
propperly, it will not have any permanent affect, but if a synth module is
poorly designed it is vaguely possible damage could occur, though I've not
heard of it happening with the real ring before.
