Roland PD-8 pads and MegaDrum

Hi all,

I just have 2 questions...

I read (most probably on this forum somewhere) that the Roland pads are wired differently to other pads. Reverse polarity maybe? Can anyone comment on this please... as in, if I plug it in and it works, is that all that matters, or is it bad for the system in some way or another?

Second question is hi-hat and pedal related. Sorry if this is obvious but I'm not in front of my kit or MegaDrum board right now so I cannot check it myself. How do I setup/plug/use the hi-hat and foot switch with the MegaDrum?

Many thanks.

I'm testing it all now and I can answer my own questions.

Firstly, The pads work without any modifications needed (for anyone else in the future that may ask the same question).

Lastly, I see now that the hi-hat pedal has its own jack. I need help with this but I'll post that in the appropriate section.
