T550 10" Low Tom on Alesis DM10 MKII
Setup — T550 10" Low Tom on Alesis DM10 MKII
WorksYes — the T550 10" Low Tom works as a full tom on the Alesis DM10 MKII: head + rim.
Head
Rim
Wiring: TOM1, TOM2, TOM3 connectors on the DB-25 cable snake → one per tom pad
The tom inputs on the cable snake support dual-zone (head + rim) triggering via the center piezo and the rim piezo.
Snare and tom setup and troubleshooting guide ›Cable routing
- Plug the TOM1, TOM2, or TOM3 connector on the DB-25 cable snake into each tom pad.
- For a fourth tom, connect a ¼″ TRS cable from the pad to the rear-panel Tom 4 Trigger Input (¼″ TRS) — it reads head and rim like the snake toms.
Module settings
- Press Trigger to enter the trigger interface page, then hit the Tom pad to select it.
- Adjust Head Sensitivity, Rim Sens, and Threshold to taste.
- Leave Head-Rim Adj low — it reduces crosstalk between head and rim rather than balancing them, and a high value can silence a deliberate head-and-rim hit.
- Press F3-Save to keep the settings — otherwise they are lost when you power off the module.
Tips
- Head triggers from the center piezo, rim from a second piezo mounted under the head.
- On an input that reads head and rim, if the wrong zone plays, tune the module's head/rim settings for this pad's size; values set for a different-size pad may not carry over.
