You didn't bend the pins on the SCSI connector, right?

ebay will have what you want- search for "SCSI-1 to SCSI-2 cable". Make sure it's 3' long, no longer. Between $8-$15 I guess, + shipping.

Yeah, it's a deep little box, but it gets more fun to use as the mystery sheds away.

A note, if I might: If your final volume is too low, try burning it again with a little comp across the stereo mix. This'll give you some "makeup gain" as part of the compression process, and you might find it a little more present afterward.

Also some EQ tweaks can change relationships in the mix too, and bring up some levels just by changing boost or cut of a freq level in a track. And- where an instrument is in the stereo field (Pan) can give it some of it's own space, causing you to hear it's little voice better. But hey, mixing is it's own bag. And I'm no master of it.

Glad you got your music going on.
