T950 13"x5" Snare Drum on Roland TD-27

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the T950 13"x5" Snare Drum when used with the Roland TD-27.

Yes — the T950 13"x5" Snare Drum works as a full snare on the Roland TD-27: head + rim.

Head Rim

Wiring: 1× TRS → SNARE connector on the DB-25 cable snake

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.

Cable routing

Connect a 1/4" TRS cable from the snare pad to the SNARE connector on the DB-25 cable snake.

Module settings

Press [SYSTEM], select "TRIGGER" and press [ENTER], then select "BANK" and press [ENTER] to open the TRIGGER BANK screen.
Strike the snare (display shows "S") or use the cursor buttons to select the SNARE input.
Use the dial to set the Trig Type to the model that matches your snare pad.
Back on the TRIGGER MENU, open "PARAM", select the snare, then set Sensitivity from the cursor + dial.

Tips

Head triggers from the center piezo, rim triggers from the rim switch.
Both zones respond independently on the TRS connection (tip = head, ring = rim).
