Troubleshooting:
Your AE Cymbal System is designed to deliver many years of trouble-free operation. However, should some-
thing seem “not quite right,” it’s best to begin by checking your signal chain. Below are some suggestions for
troubleshooting a few common issues:
No sound from any cymbals:
• Make sure that the Drum / Cym Mix control is not set fully to Drums. In that position there is no cymbal
signal in the output mix!
• Make certain each channel’s volume control, as well as the master volume are set to an
operational level.
• Check the power supply connection and the cable snake connections to the DCP and to each
AE Cymbal Pickup.
• Check the connections between the Line Output and your PA, amplifier or DAW input, and make certain
your PA is powered on etc. Make sure you’ve connected the Line Outputs and not the Drum Inputs
to your PA!
• Connect headphones to the Headphone output to verify that signal is getting from the input(s) and passing
it through the DSP. If you get sound from the ‘phones then the problem is in the connection to your PA
(or the Master Volume knob is turned down).
No sound from one or more individual cymbals:
• Check that the plugs are fully inserted in both the pickup and DCP jacks. In order to prevent accidental
disconnection they have been engineered for a snug fit.
• Make certain each channel’s volume control is set to an operational level.
