Module settings

  1. Press the Kit button, then tap Trigger to open Trigger Mode.
  2. Tap Hit Select and strike the ride bow to select the R slot, then load the matching ride trigger preset and open Tweaks to set Bow Sensitivity, Edge Sensitivity, and Threshold.
  3. If edge hits play a bell sound, toggle Invert Bell & Edge in Advanced.

Tips

  1. This is the out-of-the-box setup — no cymbal modification.
  2. Grabbing the edge chokes the ride.
  3. If late cymbal swing causes false triggers, raise Edge Decay Boost (0–100) in Advanced.

Or set it up as Bow + bell

Plug: Ride 2

Wiring: R (Ride) on the cable snake → Ride 2 (bow/bell, after the rewire)

After the one-time, reversible jumper move inside the cymbal (~10 min), Ride 2 carries bow + bell.

Cable routing

  1. Rewire the cymbal — move the internal red/black jumper from the Ride 1 input to the Ride 2 input.
