People connecting the 34pin cable connector wrong ?
I mean, the connector usually has a ‘ridge’ on it so it can be connected in just 1 way.
So how does this happen in the 1st place ….
that's where my problem started. in short, i disassembled an old akai s2000 to take eb16 and 8out and install them in my mpc 2000xl.
eb16 all ok.
8out had a short connection cable, so I tried to remove it but it was not possible (it seems soldered directly on the board) so I had to open the cable near the board and insert the pins manually. ofc i broked the resistor!Now thanks to star one I know what the problem is, but a doubt remains: is it removible the connector from the 8-output card and put a new one or an extension adapter? thank you so much and sorry for my english if i spelled something wrong
