Natural, Three-Way Triggering and Swinging Motion
The CY-15R V-Cymbals Ride is a 15-inch cymbal that offers natural swinging movement and
ultra-dynamic three-way triggering (edge/bow/bell) when used with the TD-20, TD-12, and TD-9,
making this the most expressive electronic cymbal ever designed. With edge/bow or bow/bell
output jacks, this cymbal can be used as a ride cymbal or large crash cymbal, expanding the
possibilities of any Roland drum system.
This Crash Cymbal Really Swings!
The CY-14C V-Cymbals Crash is a 14-inch crash cymbal featuring the same dimensions and
natural movement of an acoustic cymbal. A dual-trigger system with individual sensors for the
edge and bow gives you more dynamic response, allowing for expressive cymbal “chokes.”
Concentrated mass around the rim ensures uniform sensing whenever the cymbal is struck.
Compact, Triple-Trigger Cymbal
This 12-inch electronic cymbal brings breakthrough V-Cymbal technology to a very affordable
price point. This expressive 3-way trigger* cymbal offers the natural rebound, inertia, and natural
“swinging” motion of an acoustic cymbal, plus cymbal choke capabilities. Use it as crash or a
compact ride cymbal.
*3-way triggering is capable when used with the TD-20, TD-12 and TD-9 sound module.
Dual-Trigger Cymbal with Choke Control
Sporting a refined look that more closely resembles an acoustic cymbal, the
CY-8 Dual-Trigger Cymbal Pad offers precise and accurate triggering for
both crash and ride purposes — complete with natural “swinging” motion
and cymbal “choke” capability.
Improved Cymbal Pad for Hi-Hat or Splash
The cymbal pad (CY-5) features a 12-inch playing zone and swing
movement for more drummer-friendly triggering. The pad also provides
separate bow and edge triggering. The CY-5 can be also used as an
additional cymbal pad, such as a splash, on V-Drums kits.
