T550 10" Low Tom on Simmons Titan 70

Wiring, module settings, and tips for the T550 10" Low Tom when used with the Simmons Titan 70.

Setup — T550 10" Low Tom on Simmons Titan 70

Works

Yes — the T550 10" Low Tom works as a full tom on the Simmons Titan 70: head + rim.

Head Rim

Wiring: The "To Tom 1"–"To Tom 4" branches of the multi-pin cable harness → one per tom pad

Four dual-zone tom inputs (head + rim), each with its own head and rim MIDI note. The rim only reads once that input's Tom Type is set to Dual.

Cable routing

  1. Plug the "To Tom 1", "To Tom 2", "To Tom 3" or "To Tom 4" branch of the multi-pin cable harness into each tom pad.

Module settings

  1. Press the SETUP button, then strike the tom pad to select it (the LED at the right of the display shows which input is selected).
  2. Press SETUP repeatedly to reach Tom Type and set it to "Dual" — this is what turns the rim on. Leave the third option, "Split", alone: it splits one tom input into two single-zone inputs for two separate tom pads, and no rim reads in that mode.
  3. Press SETUP repeatedly to step through Sens, Retrigger, Threshold, Curve, and X-Talk for that input.
  4. Set Ratio to balance the rim zone against the head — a higher Ratio raises rim sensitivity.

Tips

  1. Head triggers from the center piezo, rim from a second piezo mounted under the head.
  2. On an input that reads head and rim, if the wrong zone plays, tune the module's head/rim settings for this pad's size; values set for a different-size pad may not carry over.
