I am currently using a CY-6 as my ride on an unexpanded TD-10. I should have my TDW-1 showing up in a couple days, which is making me think about upgrading my ride and relegating my CY-6 to a crash/splash.
So the CY-15R is the obvious choice because it's big, has positional sensing with the TDW-1, three-way triggering, etc. The CY-12R/C, though smaller, has all of those features as well. But these are both expensive.
I know that Pintech has new "Zenbals" e-cymbals coming out, but I'm not sure what the specs are... Are there any that come close to being as good as the Roland models? Or are there any products on the horizon from any other manufacturers that will have three-way triggering and/or positional sensing on the bow? Or does Roland have these features exclusively?
For me, if it is a choice between the CY-15R and CY-12R/C, I think the 15R wins because positional sensing on a 12 inch cymbal almost doesn't make sense to me... I would think the extra surface area would be needed to notice any difference with it.
Just wondering if anyone else out there will have any comparable products coming out... I think I could live with a dual-trigger Pintech or Hart crash, but I really want three-way triggering and pos. sensing on my ride. Just mulling over my options...
Thanks.
