Setup details by role
Snare pad 2-zone 1× TRS → Snare connector on the cable snake
The Snare connector on the cable snake supports dual-zone (head + rim) triggering via the center piezo and the rim piezo.
Tom pad 2-zone 1× TRS per tom → Tom1, Tom2, Tom3 connectors on the cable snake
The tom connectors on the cable snake support dual-zone (head + rim) triggering via the center piezo and the rim piezo.
Kick pad Works 1× TS or TRS → Kick connector on the cable snake
Single-zone kick trigger via the cable snake. Only the head zone is active.
2-zone crash 2-zone 1× TRS → Crash 1 connector on the cable snake, or 1× TRS → Crash 2 jack on the rear panel
Same platform as the Command. Crash 1 is on the cable snake (TRS). Crash 2 is a ¼″ TRS jack on the rear panel. Both support 2-zone operation.
3-zone ride 2-zone 1× TRS: Ride 1 (bow/edge) → RIDE connector on the cable snake
Plug the Lemon ride's Ride 1 cable into the RIDE connector for bow + edge — no cymbal modification.
Hi-hat Open/Closed 1× TRS (pad) → Hi-Hat connector on the cable snake + 1× TRS (controller) → HH Pedal connector on the cable snake
The Crimson II supports continuous/variable hi-hat with its included RealHat control pedal (Alesis's continuously-variable pedal). The Lemon hi-hat controller uses the Roland VH/FD convention, not documented for continuous CV on this input — so with the Lemon controller, treat hi-hat as open/closed.
