The Vault = Schematics and Mods

[leninvargas]

Hi Dante, the link for ADA-MP-1-Classic-PCBD-assembly is broken. Just letting you know so you can check it out, and I take this opportunity to greet you again.

[Dante]

My apologies!

Thanks for finding that, the link is fixed HERE's a COPY FOR YOU

Does anyone know if schematics are available for DM-2 and DS-4 pedals? Also, does anyone know if the cable is a special cable? I seen to remember my old cables, when I had the 2FX and Digitizer 4, as being stereo cables (TRS), but maybe I am way off on this.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

The cable is a TRS like all the other footswitch controllers.

I found a file for the DM-2, and I'll attach that here.

MJMP might have the schematic for the DS-4, but he's been MIA lately.

I have some schematics for 2FX, Digitiser 4, FS2, S1000, TFX4, D1280 & D640.  But not DM-2 and DS-4 unless they also have a different name ?

[Dante]

I don't have ether one....yet, checked all my stuff

I will add them to the vault if/when i get them tho

[Harley Hexxe]

Just a suggestion,
  You might want to check the schematics for the machines they control to see if they're included.

   I just attached a link in a reply for the 2FX because MJMP replied to someone else looking for a DM-2 schematic and that was what he attached to his reply.

What is/are the DM-2 and DS-4?  If they relate to the schematics I have I'll check if they are included with those. E.g. I have 6 schematics for the 2FX and 7 test bench procedures

[Harley Hexxe]

The DM-2 is a 4 button foot controller for the 2FX. I have one
The DS-4 is a 4 button foot controller for the Digitizer 4. I have one of those too.

I just picked up an ADA MP1 because it needed some repairs. All it needs is a battery and a new input jack so I figured I'd do the rear input jack mod. My question is on the "MP-1 Rear Input Jack Mod REV A Raw Pics.zip" it shows Jack #360085 on the rear, I can't seem to find that (or any of the part numbers). Is the rear jack just a Mono Switched jack, tip running to ground when unplugged? Can I run a Neutrik NMJ4HFD2 for the rear? And then I'd just run a Switchcraft NL112BX Isolated TRS for the front. They're both isolated and I can get them and Mogami W2697 from Redco pretty cheap.


Neutrik NMJ4HFD2:



Switchcraft NL112BX:

You can buy the kit from MJMP (ADA Parts).  Looks like he has it in stock.
IIRC the front jack is just a switchcraft L12A which has a long shaft to fit the front panel.

[MarshallJMP]

Looks like you're using the old ADA numbers. Here's a list for Mouser

Switchcraft L12A (Open Frame, N/C Tip, Mono, Extended Barrel) #502-L-12A
Nylon Shoulder Washers #534-3069 (Need 2)
Rean Nylon PCB Mount 1/4" Phone Jack (N/C Tip & Ground, Mono, Insulated Barrel) #550-10201

Thanks for the info, gentlemen. I used two Cliff CL1308 I had lying around and some Mogami W2697 wire. I did have one Neutrik NMJ4HFD2 / #550-10201 and it fit both front and back for thread length. My neurotic brain made me choose the Cliff CL1308 since they'd be matching. I also added a battery holder and revived this MP-1! I grabbed it pretty cheap because the guy didn't know how to fix it. Feels great to keep something old alive for the next few years. Thanks again for all the information you guys share.
