11" Dual-Zone Splash/Crash on Roland TD-8

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 11" Dual-Zone Splash/Crash when used with the Roland TD-8.

Yes — the 11" Dual-Zone Splash/Crash works as a full 2-zone crash on the Roland TD-8: bow + edge.

Bow Edge

Wiring: 1× TRS → CRASH1 or CRASH2 input on the rear panel

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-08 supports Roland CY-series 2-zone cymbals.

Cable routing

Connect a ¼″ TRS cable from the cymbal to the CRASH1 or CRASH2 input on the rear panel.

Module settings

Press [SETUP], then [F1 (TRIG)] — the "TRIGGER BANK" screen appears.
Navigate to the CRASH1 or CRASH2 input.
Set the trigger type to PD7 or PD9 — the TD-8's trigger-type list has no dedicated cymbal values; these dual-trigger settings read bow (head) and edge (rim) with choke support on the CRASH inputs.

Tips

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