Hi all,
I picked up a Tascam PB-32P Patchbay. From what I can gather online, it seems to be a half-normal bay. However, when I plug in the output of a mono synth to the top row at the back and take an output from the bottom row into the input of my interface, everything seems to work fine - so the 'waterfall' works. But now, if I plug in a patch cable to the top jack on the front, it should still send the signal to the interface while also giving me a copy that I can take elsewhere - But that isn't happening, the signal is cutting out when I plug something into the top row in the front.
It's the bottom jack on the front that should break the 'waterfall', so if you insert something into the front bottom jack, the signal is sent to the rear bottom jack - which breaks the 'normalisation' so instead of the mono synth going to the interface, the thing I plugged into the front will go.
According to this manual its half normaled: http://warehousesound.com/r/tascamPB32P ... 20engine.
But according to this one: https://medias.audiofanzine.com/files/t ... 480685.pdf
I need to 'short circuit' it by soldering a shorting wire on each module in order to get a parallel output - see 3-3 on page 7, and 4 on page 11...
So my question is - To solder or not to solder?
Thanks for your help!
