Hi. I'm very close to completing my kit and the only thing left for me to do is decide in which order I should place my input jacks.
I'm gonna have 2 PCB's, 1 ontop of the other resulting in 2 rows of jacks.
All jacks are of course stereo.
Take a look at the picture attached and give me some feedback please. jacks viewed from the back of the megadrum
If you have an idea, please post it here, I need help.
Thank you in advance.

I think I'll go with your jack placing.

I made a word document making it easier to put the inputs in relation to the jacks.
I used your setup as a template.
