Roland CY-18DR V-Cymbal Digital Ride
Featuring a high-resolution multi-sensor system, the CY-18DR V-Cymbal Digital Ride responds to varied cymbal playing techniques to produce sound accurately and naturally. Comfortable to play, the 18” diameter size is a more traditional size for comfortable playability and the physical motion of an acoustic ride cymbal.
The CY-18DR Digital Ride Cymbal is compatible with TD-50 Drum Sound Module digital pad connection. Thanks to newly developed multi-element sensor system, all nuances of ride cymbal play are faithfully reproduced.
- High-resolution sound triggering designed for the Flagship TD-50 Drum Sound Module
- Recreates the subtle and smooth change of sound nuances from the bow to the bell area, as well as strong crash strokes on the edge of the cymbal
- A wide range of the touch-sensor allows cymbal muting with a simple finger tip touch
Multi-Element Sensor System
The CY-18DR has a sensing processor inside the cymbal pad to accurately detect the player’s stroke across the entire area of the cymbal to produce a natural sound for the sound module. This sensor enables the nuance of the cymbal sound to change naturally in different positions on the cymbal, from edge to bow to bell. From legato cymbal swells, soft strokes on the bell, or strong crash accents on the edge, each playing technique is captured accurately. In addition to choking the cymbal with your hand, the player can softly mute the bow of cymbal with a simple touch of a finger.
