15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Alesis Crimson III
Setup — 15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Alesis Crimson III
Reduced — 2-zone rideThe 15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride works on your Alesis Crimson III with reduced zones.
Wiring: 1× TRS (Cable 2) → RIDE connector on the cable snake — bow + bell
This module's Ride input supports 3-zone ride pads — the manual explicitly states "the included Ride pad is a triple zone ride that supports Edge, Bow, and Bell hits" (§4.8.2) and the Trigger Setting parameters include a dedicated "Bell Sensi" control (0–15). But Lemon 3-zone rides ship with two separate TRS cables (Cable 1 = bow + edge, Cable 2 = bow + bell) and this module has only one Ride jack on the snake. With stock Cable 2 wiring you get bow + bell (2-zone). A 3-zone ride adapter (TRRS-to-TRS / Y-splitter) that carries all three piezos on one cable unlocks full 3-zone response.
Cable routing
- Connect Cable 2 (the bow + bell cable) from the Lemon 3-zone ride cymbal to the RIDE input.
Module settings
- Go to Kit → Menu → Trigger and select the RIDE input.
- Adjust Head (Bow) Sensi, Rim (Edge) Sensi, Bell Sensi, and Threshold for the input.
- In your kit, load a ride-bow sample on the bow zone and a ride-bell sample on the second zone — bow and bell hits will play through Cable 2 as expected.
Tips
- Cable 2 delivers bow and bell — the two most-used zones for ride playing.
- Full simultaneous 3-zone operation is not available on this module — only one cable can be connected at a time.
- Want full 3-zone (bow + bell + edge independently) on this module's single Ride input? A 3-zone ride adapter (TRRS-to-TRS / Y-splitter) routes all three piezos down one cable and this module can separate them internally. Search for a 3-zone ride converter — with that adapter, this partial-fit becomes a full fit.
