First Off: The TD-9, TD-11, TD-12, TD-15, TD-20/TD-20X and TD-30 modules have additional dual Piezo type inputs besides just the snare input. All Four of the SPD-30 inputs are dual Piezo type inputs. This DIY splitter works for splitting dual piezo inputs so 2 single piezo pads can be used for one dual piezo input.
(dual piezo pads like PD-85/105/125 .... or piezo rim switch pads like CY-8/14C and others can be used but the rim zone on those pads will be dead).
The inputs besides the snare input which are dual piezo type on the TD-9/12/20 are; all Tom and all Aux. inputs.
When using this splitter ... if both pads that are connected are hit at the exact same instant only one pad will sound.
OK... with my upcoming Lectroban project... I need 2 splitters for a total of 4 lectrobans on my TD-20 module. I will be using a tom input and an auxiliary input... both inputs are dual piezo types. So since I had to build these I thought I would do a photo step by step as a possible aid to anyone wanting to build one of these great little tools.
We'll call this the Aux. Splitter 10 Step Program:
First I included the Wiring diagram that has already been posted many times. It is the attachment on this post.
I also have now included a simple picture showing the TRS Plug with the resistor added and the colored lines drawn to illistrate the wiring between the Stereo plug and the 2 Mono jacks. Obviously drawing is not my strong point
I did not design this splitter. This splitter was former forum member feefer's original idea.... and a very good one, a very useful tool for Piezo/Piezo inputs on the modules mentioned....
