T550 8" High Tom on ATV EXS-3

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the T550 8" High Tom when used with the ATV EXS-3.

Setup — T550 8" High Tom on ATV EXS-3

Use as 1-zone tom

Yes — the T550 8" High Tom works on the ATV EXS-3 as a 1-zone tom: head only.

Head Rim

Wiring: 1× TRS per tom → TOM1, TOM2, TOM3 inputs (1/4" TRS jacks)

The EXS-3's TOM1, TOM2, and TOM3 inputs are single-zone — only the head piezo is read. Rim hits on a dual-zone tom pad will not produce a separate sound.

Cable routing

  1. Connect a 1/4" TRS cable from each tom pad to the TOM1, TOM2, or TOM3 input on the rear panel.

Module settings

  1. Set trigger sensitivity, threshold, and crosstalk for the tom inputs from the ATV EXS-3's own trigger menu — see the ATV EXS-3 manual for the exact button sequence and parameter names.

Tips

  1. The head triggers from the center piezo; the rim is not read on these inputs.
T550 8" High Tom also fits 73 other drum modules — see setup
