System Setup (cont.):
The AE cymbal pickups are “universal” and completely interchangeable with one another. The only difference
is that the stand mounting sleeve is omitted when mounting a pickup in a Hi-Hat.
On the other hand, the tone-shaping presets in each channel have been optimized for use with specific
cymbals. While the snake cable branches are interchangeable and any pickup will work in any channel, we do
recommend that you connect your Hi-Hat to the “Hi-Hat” channel and your Ride cymbal to the “Ride” channel.
Connect the short ends of the included cable snake to the matching color-coded AE Cymbal Pickup Input jacks
(17) on the rear panel of the controller. While snake connectors are interchangeable, the system color coding
has been designed as follows:
Blue: Hi-Hat (you must use this one for your Hi-Hat because it’s the only one with a right-angle plug).
Red: Ride
Orange: Cym3 (typically a crash or splash)
Yellow: Cym4 (typically a crash or splash)
Green: Cym5 (typically a China or other “effects” cymbal)
Important: Use only Gen16 four-conductor pickup cables to connect the pickups to the controller. Use of
any other cables may result in damage to your DCP, pickup(s), or both.
Important: The connectors are designed for a very snug fit to prevent their coming loose during playing.
Make sure they are fully inserted into the pickups and DCP rear panel inputs.
