18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Donner Beat Max

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride when used with the Donner Beat Max.

Setup — 18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Donner Beat Max

Works

Yes — the 18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride works as a full 3-zone ride on the Donner Beat Max: bow + bell + edge.

Bell Bow Edge

Wiring: Via the stand's built-in snake — the Beat Max has no per-pad 1/4" trigger jacks (connection unverified, bench-check pending)

The Beat Max ships with a 14" triple-zone ride carrying bow + bell + edge (module pad model T_CY14R). The Lemon 3-zone ride uses a matching two-output design. How the ride's two 1/4" TRS leads reach the module through the stand snake has not been bench-verified.

Cable routing

  1. The Donner Beat Max module has no individual 1/4" pad-trigger jacks. Every pad connects through the drum stand's built-in snake, which terminates in a single multi-pin "Module data base socket" on the module.
  2. Connecting the Lemon 3-zone ride's two 1/4" TRS outputs to this system has not been bench-verified — confirm the connection before relying on it.

Module settings

  1. From the main interface open EDITOR (right-side buttons).
  2. With CHASE on, strike the ride to select it (or pick it from the drop-down), then set Model to T_CY14R (14" triple-zone ride).
  3. Adjust Pad Sensitivity (bow), Rim Sensitivity (edge), Threshold, and XTalk.

Tips

  1. Ride MIDI notes: Bow = 51, Bell = 53, Edge = 59.
  2. Both leads must be connected for full 3-zone play.
  3. If the edge and bell sounds come out swapped, the two cables are reversed — swap them at the cymbal ends.
18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride also fits 73 other drum modules — see setup
