Hey all. I searched around and couldn't find a thread like this, please forgive me if this is a repeat.
I just bought a Roland TD-7 kit from a guy online, and it works great so far. I paid $800 for it, and I think it wasn't a steal but definitely worth my money. Anyway, the problem is it's set up for a righty, and I wanted to swap it to a left-handed setup. I took all the pads off the frame, and now I can't seem to get everything onto the frame like I want it. I don't have a picture available, but it looks just like this :

(random image taken from google image search to explain what kind of frame I have)
Can anyone provide me with a picture or a basic MS paint diagram or something to help me set this up lefty? I would greatly appreciate it; I can't play at all after having taken it apart. I definitely tried to set it up with the hi-hat, snare, and drum brain on the right and the ride on the left but now everything feels wrong and I can't seem to adjust the pads to a comfortable distance from each other (still quite a newbie drummer).
