Roland CY-18DR
New digital ride cymbal with advanced multi-sensor triggering
Roland is revolutionizing
electronic drums – and our trigger pads are no exception. Our brand new digital
trigger pads work with the TD-50 sound module to provide the ultimate in
expressive drumming. Never before have electronic drums been so true-to-life.
The new Roland CY-18DR is
for drummers who want to stamp personality on their playing. With
acoustic-style 18&qout; dimensions and authentic swing motion, this newly developed
digital V-Cymbal is instantly familiar and highly playable. But it also features
Roland’s latest technology; a high-resolution, multi-sensor system within the
cymbal pad which detects every nuance of your hard and soft touches, in every
position from edge to bell. The CY-18DR digital ride gives expressive drummers
more dynamics than ever before, supporting techniques from cymbal legato to
soft bell stroke, and even lets you mute the sound with a finger-touch – simply
touch the bell or bow of the cymbal with a finger or palm to mute the cymbal
with natural decay, just as you would with an acoustic ride cymbal. To enjoy
the optimum performance from this groundbreaking cymbal, it must be paired with
the processing power and digital trigger inputs of Roland’s new flagship TD-50
sound module.
