T550 8" High Tom on Alesis Nitro
Setup — T550 8" High Tom on Alesis Nitro
WorksYes — the T550 8" High Tom works as a full tom on the Alesis Nitro: head + rim.
Head
Rim
Wiring: Tom1, Tom2, Tom3 connectors on the 25-pin cable snake → one per tom pad
The tom connectors 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 25-pin cable snake into each tom pad.
Module settings
- Hit the tom pad, or press its Pad Select button, so the module selects that input.
- Press Utility, then press Page/Select until the setting you want appears: SEN (Pad sensitivity), THR (Pad threshold), R-S (Pad rim sensitivity), CRO (Pad crosstalk), or CUR (Pad velocity curve).
- Set the value with the < and > buttons — R-S controls the rim zone response.
- Press Save to keep the settings — otherwise they return to defaults when you power the module off.
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.
