My pooch is screwed!!! Can't get any volume....

[viciousnoob]

Hi, guys who are much smarter than I am..

I bought the DD1M RS kit to use with my acoustic kit. I have them hooked up, getting a great signal from the triggers, and have built a great sound..

BUT...

When I test the kit through the PA using the buttons on the module, it about blows the hair off of your head. But when I use the actual kit/triggers, it is 80% less volume...

I tried running it mono to one channel of the board, stereo to two channels of the board, and have the same results - sider at 100% and 100% gain on the board.

I have went into the settings and turned each trigger to 100% volume.

Still, hardly get any sound. Am I missing a secret gain control? Has this happened to anyone else?

I have a gig in 24 hours and am pretty screwed, and could use some help from anyone. I hate for my first post to be begging for help and not a "hello", but I am in dire straits..

Here's my modules I have:

Thanks, guys...

You need to set the gain, not only the volume.
