Congratulations! You have made it through, now just add the knobs, insert the SD card with samples and

you are ready to enjoy your new module.

Before you connect anything, make sure that your system is disconnected from power. Also double check

the polarity of the ribbon cable, the red cable should match the 12V rail both on the module and on the

bus board!
