Setup details by role
Snare pad 2-zone 1× TRS → SNARE input (1/4" TRS jack)
Dual-zone triggering: head (tip) and rim (ring) respond independently via the single TRS connection. The module's snare input reads both piezo (head) and rim switch/piezo signals.
Tom pad 2-zone 1× TRS per tom → TOM1, TOM2, TOM3 inputs (1/4" TRS jacks)
Dual-zone tom triggering: head (tip) and rim (ring) respond independently via the single TRS connection per tom input.
Kick pad Works 1× TS or TRS → KICK input (1/4" TRS jack)
Single-zone kick trigger. Only the head zone is active.
2-zone crash 2-zone 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-20 supports Roland CY-series 2-zone cymbals.
3-zone ride 3-zone 2× TRS → Input 10 RIDE + Input 11 EDGE on the rear panel
Full 3-zone ride using the TD-20's 3-Way Trigger feature — Input 10 RIDE carries bow + bell, Input 11 EDGE carries the edge. The manual documents this exact setup for the CY-15R / CY-12R/C. 3Way Trigger must be set to ON.
Hi-hat Continuous 1× TRS → HI-HAT input on the rear panel + 1× TRS → HH CTRL input on the rear panel
Continuous hi-hat control. Set the Hi-Hat Ctrl Type to FD for the variable-resistance Lemon controller — the TD-20 then reads full open-to-closed pedal movement.
