XB2 Kit Installation 

Installing the components 

 

Where the socket for the expression pedal was located, the USB 
socket is installed in the rear panel. For this, drill two 3mm holes 
at a distance of 29mm close to the existing drill holes, but offset 
upwards by about 1mm. 

 

 

 

 

 

Install the interface board 1. If you want to use 
the optional HX3.5 Extension Board, plug the 
connector with the long 14 core cable ribbon 
into PL16 beforehand. Connect the connector 
of the 11pin Leslie socket to PL17 and the 
three connectors from the pots at the front to 
PL12, PL14 and PL18. 

 

 

 

Plug the USB cable into the socket on the 
HX3.5 board. Place the board close to the 
metal brace that supports the lid. Place the four 
5mm spacers underneath and screw the board 
to the floor with Spax screws. 

 

 

 

 

 

If you use the optional extension board, screw 
it right next to the HX3.5 mainboard. Connect it 
with the short 26 connect the 6 core flat cable 
and the 14 connect the 6 core flat cable 
leading to the interface board 1.
