18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Roland TD-25

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride when used with the Roland TD-25.

Yes — the 18" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride works as a full 3-zone ride on the Roland TD-25: bow + bell + edge.

Bell Bow Edge

Wiring: 2× TRS → RIDE + RIDE BELL connectors on the DB-25 cable snake

Full 3-zone ride with separate RIDE and RIDE BELL inputs via the cable snake.

Connect a ¼″ TRS cable from the cymbal's Ride 1 output (bow/edge) to the RIDE connector on the DB-25 cable snake.
Connect a ¼″ TRS cable from the cymbal's Ride 2 output (bow/bell) to the RIDE BELL connector on the DB-25 cable snake.

In the KIT screen, press [F3] (MENU), then [F3] (SETUP) to open the SETUP screen.
Select "Trigger Settings" to open the TRIGGER SETTINGS screen, then strike the ride to select it.
Use the [INSTRUMENT] knob to set the Pad type to the model that matches your ride cymbal.
Use the [F2]/[F3] buttons to select "Sensitivity" and turn the [INSTRUMENT] knob to adjust it.

Both cables are required for full 3-zone operation (bell, bow, edge).
If only one cable is connected, the ride will function as 2-zone only.
If the edge and bell sounds come out swapped, the two cables are reversed — swap them at the cymbal ends.
