16 inch ride cymbal pad with natural playing feel
The Roland CY-16R-T is a 16 inch ride cymbal pad for V-Drums that stands out straight away with its thinner profile compared to earlier generations. That gives you a more natural look, more playing comfort and improved swinging motion while you play.
The stick response follows that approach well. You notice it especially with cymbal swells and ride patterns, which feel smoother and more convincing on this Roland ride pad.
Independent zones for more expression
The multi-sensor system allows independent edge, bow and bell sounds. That means you can play different parts of the cymbal pad with their own trigger response, adding more variation to your V-Drums setup.
If you want to play a choke, you simply grab the edge of the cymbal. The Roland CY-16R-T is also compatible with all V-Drums modules, so you can use it widely within an electronic drum kit.
