13" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Roland TD-20

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 13" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride when used with the Roland TD-20.

Setup — 13" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Roland TD-20

Works

Yes — the 13" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride works as a full 2-zone crash on the Roland TD-20: 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-20 supports Roland CY-series 2-zone cymbals.

Cable routing

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

Module settings

  1. Press [TRIGGER], then [F1 (BANK)] to open the TRIGGER BANK screen.
  2. Strike the cymbal to select the CRASH1 or CRASH2 input.
  3. Use [+/-] or the [VALUE] dial to set Trig Type to CY14C or CY8.
  4. Press [F2 (BASIC)] and set Sensitivity and Threshold for the cymbal.

Tips

  1. Bow and edge zones respond independently.
  2. Choke works by grabbing the cymbal edge.
13" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride also fits 73 other drum modules — see setup
