even the movement caused by playing. It can be used as a ride, crash, or splash cymbal.

When the CY-12R/C is used as a ride cymbal, you can play bell shots (p. 6); edge shots (p. 6) can be played when using

it as a crash cymbal.

You can also use choking techniques, whereby you stop the sound by grasping the cymbal edge with your hand (p. 7).

• Compatible with all Roland percussion sound modules (p. 2)

• Three way triggering and positional sensing are possible

(When using the TD-10 + TDW-1 with V-Cymbal Control) (p. 6)
