Notes for using the Surge Triple-Zone Crash/Ride Cymbal:
1.
Turn off 3-way triggering.
2.
Connect one stereo cable from the bow trigger jack to the RIDE input on your module.
3.
Connect the other stereo cable from the bell trigger jack to the EDGE input on your module.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure you have the two inputs set to trigger the appropriate sounds for
each kit:
RIDE Input HEAD = Ride Bow sound.
RIDE Input RIM = Ride Edge sound.
EDGE Input HEAD = Ride Bell sound.
EDGE Input RIM = Ride Edge sound (same as Ride RIM input).
Notes for using the Surge Dual-Zone Ride Cymbal:
1.
Turn off 3-way triggering on the RIDE input and use the included Y-cable on the module’s end
of the ride’s stereo cable.
2.
Plug the black tip plug into the RIDE input and the orange ring plug into the EDGE input. This
places the bow ride sound on the RIDE input and the bell ride sound on the EDGE input.
3.
Make sure you have a Ride Bow sound assigned to the HEAD of the Ride input and the Ride
Bell sound assigned to the HEAD of the EDGE input.
