T550 8" High Tom on GEWA G3

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the T550 8" High Tom when used with the GEWA G3.

Setup — T550 8" High Tom on GEWA G3

Works

Yes — the T550 8" High Tom works as a full tom on the GEWA G3: head + rim.

Head Rim

Wiring: 1× TRS per tom → TOM 1, TOM 2, TOM 3 inputs (1/4" TRS jacks)

The tom inputs support dual-zone (head + rim) triggering via the center piezo and the rim piezo.

Cable routing

  1. Connect a 1/4" TRS cable from each tom pad to the TOM 1, TOM 2, or TOM 3 input on the rear panel.

Module settings

  1. Press the [TRIGGER SET.] button to enter Trigger Set mode.
  2. Turn the dial [5] [<INPUT>] to select the TOM 1, TOM 2 or TOM 3 input.
  3. Press [F1] "Settings".
  4. Turn the dial [6] [<ZONE>] to choose the zone (HEAD or RIM).
  5. Turn the dial [5] to Gain and set it with the dial [7] so your hardest stroke reaches full velocity, then do the same for Threshold so light knocks are ignored.

Tips

  1. Head triggers from the center piezo, rim from a second piezo mounted under the head.
  2. Both zones share the one TRS connection (tip = head, ring = rim).
  3. On an input that reads head and rim, if the wrong zone plays, tune the module's head/rim settings for this pad's size; values set for a different-size pad may not carry over.
