15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Donner DED-400

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride when used with the Donner DED-400.

Yes — the 15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride works as a full 2-zone crash on the Donner DED-400: bow + edge.

Bow Edge

Wiring: 1× TRS → CRASH1 lead on the signal-connection harness, or the discrete CRASH2 expansion jack

Dual-zone cymbal triggering supported on the Crash inputs.

Connect the cymbal to the CRASH1 lead on the module's signal-connection harness using a standard 1/4" TRS cable, or to the discrete CRASH2 1/4" jack on the module's rear panel.
The DED-400's main pads (Snare, Kick, Tom1–3, Hi-Hat, Crash1, Ride) all route through the supplied signal-connection harness (multi-pin parallel-port connector into the TRIGGER INPUT port); only the TOM4 and CRASH2 expansion inputs are individual 1/4" jacks on the rear panel.

Press the MENU button, use +/- to select 2-PAD SET, and press OK to enter the pad parameter interface.
Tap the crash pad to select it, then press + / - to choose a parameter and turn the encoder to set the value (press OK to confirm).
Set Pad Sen (surface/bow sensitivity, 1-6), Rim Sen (edge sensitivity), Threshold (trigger threshold, 1-32), Xtalk (crosstalk threshold, 1-32), and Volume (0-127) so bow and edge hits register cleanly.
Press SAVE to store the settings.
