32 input connector to DIY stereo-jack w/out PCB

i'm finding it semi confusing to connect the 32 input connector to the stereo jacks i purchased.

i know how stereo jacks works, but looking at Synthex's "v2.8 Quick Manual", i'm reading
1 - GND
2 - HiHat controller High impedance input
3 - HiHat controller Power source
4 - HiHat controller Low impedance input
5 - Kick
6 - NC
7 - HiHat Bow
8 - HiHat Edge
9 - Snare Head
10 - Snare Rim
11 - Ride Bow
12 - Ride Edge
13 - Crash Bow
14 - Crash Edge
15 - Tom1 Head
16 - Tom1 Rim

etc..etc...

so i'm guessing at least the GND is connector to ALL ground points on each jack, correct?
and then ie. solder #5 to the tip connection of the KickDrum input trigger jack?

and is it still correct that the 32 input connector (on Synthex's v2.8 boards) are connected as shown here:

2 - 4 - 6 - 8......
1 - 3 - 5 - 9......

(when looking from the top down - with the "square" being #1) ?

This is not the schematics for the Synthex's All In One Kit.

Are there schematics for these inputs? or is that something you get when you buy the kit? I did a little plundering around and I couldn't seem to find any.

All is in the PDF file "Quick Manual v2" on the main "v2.8 All In One Kit" topic.

the v2 manual for your kit have a fault i believe.

the 32 pinout connector on page 2 (top right) shows it like i asked if was right:

2 - 4 - 6 - 8......
1 - 3 - 5 - 9......

but on page 4 at the bottom it shows the 2 rows of input connectors (2 x 16 pins) to be like this on top of eachother:

1 - 2 - 3 - 4....
21-22-23-24...
