I was given one of these because the owner died. it has only 1 cable (Green) I attached it to my snare drum and ran the output of the box into my pa but all I get is a faint sound when I tap on the top of the sensor ??? The 5 channel mixer is in great shape. In what way am I suppose to hear an 80's sound from y snare playing with the gain, ect...Can I get replacement sensors for the missing ones ? I only find people selling this at an over rated price on Ebay. It goes back to the early 80's when everything was analog components, op amps, ect...
