Ride Cymbals - a definitive answer please?

Do you have a preference for the size of the ride?
The roland CY12 r/c is 12 inches and the CY15 is 15 inches wide, but the bell trigger is the same size (as far as I am aware). I like the CY-15 and have had no problems with the bell trigger (reported, but fixable, problem with some cymbals) - the size and weight of the cymbal means it goes some way to mimicking the physical attributes of an acoustic ride. I briefly had a try on a CY-12 r/c but prefer the larger CY-15. If you keep an eye on ebay you should be able to get a CY-15 for £120 or less (I've bought 2 this way - one I use for a ride and the other as a crash), although some go for much more than this.
And for dual zone I presume you want a cymbal that has bow and bell trigger capacity and not just bow and edge (and use the edge as a bell) - therefore ruling out a roland CY-14 (?)Last edited by Swaledale; 04-27-08, 09:00 AM.

Originally posted by KevH View PostI am aware of the Yamaha cymbals, and like the look, but can't get a defining answer as to whether dual zone will work out of the box with the TD6V, so if someone can shed light there it would help. I have used search here and got no real answer.

Yammy baby
I'm quite happy with my Yamaha CY150 s, it's quite weighty and the large size gives it ride status, i tested it against the CY12 r/c and it was better in my opinion, i paid £89 delivered brand new
I'm not trying to take you for a ride, honest
Modificatione needed though if u want 3 way, works bell and bow if not. That third zone (edge) is handy, i can assign a deep crash or ride edge with sizzle mmm yummy yammy

I'm 0.00% familiar with the td6 as far as setting parameters. (triggers etc.) I had to do a bit of tweaking to get 2 distinct sounds from my Hart ride....
but after I did that it worked (and is still working) like a champ. can't recommend it enough!
