15" Dual-Zone China on Roland TD-1

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 15" Dual-Zone China when used with the Roland TD-1.

Setup — 15" Dual-Zone China on Roland TD-1

Works

Yes — the 15" Dual-Zone China works as a full 2-zone crash on the Roland TD-1: bow + edge.

Bow Edge

Wiring: 1× TRS → CRASH connector on the DB-25 cable snake (the TD-1 also exposes a CR2 cymbal input — connect a second cymbal to CRASH2 if your cable snake includes one)

Dual-zone crash triggering: bow (tip) and edge (ring) respond independently via the single TRS connection. Choke works by grabbing the cymbal edge. The TD-1 supports two 2-zone cymbal inputs (CR1 and CR2).

Cable routing

  1. Connect a ¼″ TRS cable from the cymbal to the CRASH connector on the DB-25 cable snake.
  2. For a second cymbal, connect to the CRASH2 connector if your cable snake exposes it.

Module settings

  1. Press the [Select] button to select Drums mode, then long-press the [Metronome] button so the mode lamp blinks (Making Detailed Settings).
  2. Press the [Select] button to blink the Drums mode lamp (Adjust the Pad Sensitivity).
  3. Play the cymbal, then use the [-] [+] buttons to adjust its sensitivity.
  4. Press the [Metronome] button to complete the setting.

Tips

  1. Bow and edge zones respond independently.
  2. Choke works by grabbing the cymbal edge.
