15" Dual-Zone China on Donner DED-500

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 15" Dual-Zone China when used with the Donner DED-500.

Yes — the 15" Dual-Zone China works as a full 2-zone crash on the Donner DED-500: bow + edge.

Bow Edge

Wiring: 1× TRS → CRASH1 lead on the DB25 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 DB25 signal-connection harness using a standard 1/4" TRS cable, or to the discrete CRASH2 1/4" jack on the module's jack panel.
The DED-500's main pads all route through the supplied signal-connection harness (multi-pin DB25 connector into the module's "Data In" port); only the TOM4 and CRASH2 expansion inputs are individual 1/4" jacks.

Upon the setting interface, select TRIG and press [ENTER] to enter the trigger interface, then use the [◀]/[▶] buttons to select the Crash pad.
Adjust Sensibility, Threshold, Curve, and Rim Gain (edge sensitivity); raise AntiCross if a neighboring pad falsely triggers.
