Setup details by role
Snare pad 2-zone 1× TRS → the "To Snare" branch of the multi-pin cable harness
The snare input supports dual-zone (head + rim) triggering via the center piezo and the rim piezo.
Tom pad 2-zone 1× TRS per tom → the "To Tom 1"–"To Tom 3" branches of the multi-pin cable harness (a fourth tom uses the side-panel TOM 4 jack)
The tom inputs support dual-zone (head + rim) triggering via the center piezo and the rim piezo.
Kick pad Works 1× TS or TRS → the "To Kick" branch of the multi-pin cable harness
Single-zone kick trigger. Only the head zone is active.
2-zone crash 2-zone 1× TRS → the "To Crash" branch of the multi-pin cable harness, or the CRASH 2 jack on the side panel
Dual-zone cymbal triggering on both crash inputs — the module's pad note table gives Crash 1 and Crash 2 each a bow note and a rim note.
3-zone ride 2-zone 1× TRS: Ride 1 (bow/edge) → the "To Ride" branch of the multi-pin cable harness
Plug the Lemon ride's Ride 1 cable into the ride branch of the harness for bow + edge — no cymbal modification. The SD1500 has a single ride connection, so you get two of the ride's three zones.
Hi-hat Open/Closed 1× TRS pad + 1× mono TS (controller) → the "To Hi-Hat" and "To Hi-Hat Control" branches of the multi-pin cable harness
The Lemon hi-hat pad and controller connect through the multi-pin cable harness and deliver open and closed hi-hat.
