20" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Simmons SD2000

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the 20" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride when used with the Simmons SD2000.

Setup — 20" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride on Simmons SD2000

Use as 2-zone ride

Yes — the 20" Triple-Zone Crash/Ride works on the Simmons SD2000 as a 2-zone ride: bow + edge.

Choose your ride zones

Plug: Ride 1

Wiring: The RIDE1 lead of the multi-pin cable harness → Ride 1 (bow/edge)

Plug the ride lead of the harness into the Lemon ride's Ride 1 output for bow + edge — no cymbal modification. The SD2000 has a single ride connection, so you get two of the ride's three zones.

Ride setup and troubleshooting guide ›

Module settings

  1. Press [Utility], then the Function soft-key under "Trigger" on the Main Utility screen.
  2. Select the Ride input (Follow Trigger — strike it — or Current Trigger).
  3. Adjust Sensitivity, Threshold, Curve, Retrigger, Crosstalk, Splash Sensitivity until bow and edge strikes register cleanly.
  4. In your kit, load a ride-bow sample on the bow zone and a ride-edge or crash sample on the second zone.

Tips

  1. This is the out-of-the-box setup — no cymbal modification.

Or set it up as Bow + bell

Plug: Ride 2

Wiring: The RIDE1 lead of the multi-pin cable harness → Ride 2 (bow/bell, after the rewire)

Prefer the bell to the edge? A one-time, reversible jumper move inside the cymbal (~10 min) puts bow + bell on Ride 2. The SD2000 voices a ride bell — its note chart lists RIDE1, RIDE1 BELL and RIDE1 RIM as separate notes.

Rewire guide ›

Cable routing

  1. Rewire the cymbal — move the internal red/black jumper from the Ride 1 input to the Ride 2 input.
  2. Plug the RIDE1 lead of the multi-pin cable harness into the cymbal's Ride 2 output.

  4. In your kit, load a ride-bow sample on the bow zone and a ride-bell sample on the second zone — bow and bell hits will play through the connected lead as expected.
