T550 10" Low Tom on Alesis Strike MultiPad

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the T550 10" Low Tom when used with the Alesis Strike MultiPad.

Yes — the T550 10" Low Tom works as a full tom on the Alesis Strike MultiPad: head + rim.

Head Rim

Wiring: 1× TRS → Trigger In 2/3 or 4/5 set to Head+Rim — head + rim

Each 2-zone tom needs one of the two dual-zone jacks (Trigger In 2/3 or 4/5) set to Type = Head+Rim, carrying head + rim over a single TRS cable. There are only two dual-zone jacks total, shared across all your 2-zone pads. To add more single-zone pads, a dual-zone jack can instead be set to 2 Trigger and split with a TRS-to-dual-TS splitter, but each leg is single-zone (head only).

Cable routing

Connect a 1/4" TRS cable from each Lemon tom pad to a free dual-zone jack (Trigger In 2/3 or 4/5).

Module settings

Press Utility, then F3–Triggers, set EXT Trigger to the tom's input (TRIN2–5) and set Type to Head+Rim.
Tune Scan Time, Retrig-C and Mask Time, and set Rim Gain for the rim zone.
Set overall Sensitivity and Threshold under Pad → F1–Feel.
Assign tom head and rim samples to that trigger input.

Tips

Only two dual-zone jacks exist — a full 2-zone snare + tom already uses both.
For a single-zone tom, set a jack to 2 Trigger and use a TRS-to-dual-TS splitter to reach two mono triggers on one jack.
