Finally set aside the time to integrate the Toolbox Synth with drum pads, something I specifically designed this synth to do, at the Tool man cave In Hollywood and Danny Carey tries it out for the first time before their rehearsal begins - October 5, 2013.
A recently acquired Roland drum pad synth is used as a midi controller in this instance via a Doepfer 190-B Midi to CV converter, utilizing gate out to trigger a Plan B Model 10, 1v/octave voltage out to control three Plan B Model 15 VCOs and the aftertouch to provide a secondary amplitude VC in a Plan B Model 25 (VCA section) to provide dynamic response to the pressure applied to the pads, which is offset via a Plan B Model 14 Voltage Processor. Enjoy, or not!
