T950 13"x13" Floor Tom on Donner Beat Max

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the T950 13"x13" Floor Tom when used with the Donner Beat Max.

Yes — the T950 13"x13" Floor Tom works as a full tom on the Donner Beat Max: head + rim.

Head Rim

Wiring: Via the stand's built-in snake — the Beat Max has no per-pad 1/4" trigger jacks, and the manual documents no pad-end connector

All four tom inputs are dual-zone — head and rim both trigger. The Beat Max supports four toms, one more than most mid-range modules.

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.
The manual documents no connection point for a standard 1/4" pad: panel item 10 is a "Module data base socket" that carries "signals/lights and other data from the drum pad", is built into the stand, and takes the module itself — not a pad. Check how your kit's own pads terminate at the stand before ordering.

From the main interface, tap EDITOR.
With CHASE ON (default), strike the tom to select it — or turn CHASE OFF and pick it from the drum drop-down.
Set Model to D_DP8 (8" pad), D_DP10 (10" pad), or D_DP10L (10" large) to match your pad size and enable dual-zone triggering.
Adjust Pad Sensitivity, Rim Sensitivity, Threshold, Mask Time, and XTalk per tom.

TOM1/TOM2 are mapped as high toms; TOM3/TOM4 as floor toms — assign voices accordingly in INSTRUMENT > VOICE.
Tom MIDI notes (head / rim): TOM1 = 48/81, TOM2 = 45/77, TOM3 = 43/74, TOM4 = 41/72.
