T550 12" Kick on Alesis DM10

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the T550 12" Kick when used with the Alesis DM10.

Setup — T550 12" Kick on Alesis DM10

Works

Yes — the T550 12" Kick works as a full kick on the Alesis DM10: single zone.

Trigger

Wiring: 1× TS or TRS → KICK input on the rear panel (individual 1/4" TRS jack)

The DM10 has 12 individual 1/4" TRS jacks on the rear panel — no cable snake. Single-zone kick trigger. Only the head zone is active.

Cable routing

  1. Connect a 1/4" TS or TRS cable from the kick pad to the KICK input on the rear panel.

Module settings

  1. Go to Ext. Trig Menu. Select the Kick input.
  2. Adjust Sensitivity and Threshold to taste.

Tips

  1. Single-zone operation — only the head zone is active.
  2. A TS cable is sufficient for single-zone kick pads; TRS also works (ring is unused).
T550 12" Kick also fits 73 other drum modules — see setup
