Snare Drum section - 


Revision.1

please download v.1.7 build documentation for details.


Service advisory: after building the snare you must place a jumper as shown in the pic below, this is shown without parts placed for clarify

bigger picture from me - easier to find the place..

if you‘re using the Safety PSU do not connect pin 27 and pin 28 on the F3 cable, otherwise you‘ll create a ground loop.

5Noise floor - crosstalkREV.1

from FB RE-909 group:

"Hello! Just wanted to share some good news about noise and crosstalk issues on RE-909. Pictured below is a Roland TR-909 factory mod with a wire that seems to reinforce grounding between C151 styrofoam cap in the hihat low pass filter and the common analog ground track where R236 is also attached. By doing the same mod in RE-909, pictured below also in the bottom of the board, cymbals crosstalk and digital noise leak into the hihats channel is eliminated, which fixes the last remaining issue in my build. I used a thick grounding wire to connect the lower pin of C151 to the double hole in the common ground track next to R236. This fix works perfectly on traffo PSU but I can’t guarantee it works on safe PSU (and preliminary tests show it doesn’t) because of the difference in ground routing. Otherwise, enjoy your digital noise-free, crosstalk-free RE-909!"



6Gate rev1-2in case you hear the Gate signal of the SD in BD - you can try to connect a 1uF polar cap**  between GND and Trigger.  Measure with an scope to find the best value - maybe 470/680/820nF is fine too - or less.15.may 2022

Tips:

IDFocusInfo
1WiringYou can use the MTA100 system from TE connectivity for example - 
2noisy/hissmake sure to solder the potentiometer at all pins to have the correct ground - (the ground flow thru the outside pins / it act like a trace/bridge) 
3MIDI OUT

measure the transistor HFE value for the switchboard Q604 - a gain of 350 should be fine.

otherwise it can happen that MIDI OUT doesn't work.

you can also mod the MIDI Out : http://www.colinfraser.com/tr909/909mods/909midi.htm

4Transistors

select the * S* Transistors to the same HFE to get a balanced gain on all voices.

check the schematics for more details:

q12 in Bassdrum

q51 in snaredrum

q20 in Low Tom

q27 in Mid Tom

q58 in High Tom

Q71 in Crash

Q85 in HH

Q65 in Rimshot

Q37 in Handclap


Q33 Tom Noise - should be ignored or just use the same hfe as above
