15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on NUX DM-8

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride when used with the NUX DM-8.

Setup — 15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on NUX DM-8

Use as 2-zone ride

Yes — the 15" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride works on the NUX DM-8 as a 2-zone ride: bow + edge.

Choose your ride zones

Plug: Ride 1

Wiring: 1× TRS: Ride 1 (bow/edge) → RIDE branch on the multi-pin trigger snake

Plug the Lemon ride's Ride 1 cable into the RIDE branch for bow + edge — no cymbal modification. The ride's second zone is assignable, so give it a ride-edge or crash voice.

Cable routing

  1. Connect the ride's Ride 1 output (bow/edge) to the RIDE branch of the trigger snake.

Module settings

  1. Press MENU > TRIGGER and hit the ride to select it.
  2. Tune SENSITIVITY / THRESHOLD for the bow and RIM GAIN for the ring (edge) zone.
  3. If edge hits sound the wrong voice, reassign the ride notes under MENU > MIDI NOTE.

Tips

  1. This is the out-of-the-box setup — no cymbal modification.

Or set it up as Bow + bell

Plug: Ride 2

Wiring: 1× TRS: Ride 2 (bow/bell, after the rewire) → RIDE branch on the multi-pin trigger snake

After a one-time, reversible jumper move inside the cymbal (~10 min) the Ride 2 cable carries bow + bell into the single RIDE branch.

Cable routing

  1. Rewire the cymbal — move the internal red/black jumper from the Ride 1 input to the Ride 2 input.
  2. Connect a single 1/4" TRS cable from the cymbal's Ride 2 output to the RIDE branch of the trigger snake.
