The Yamaha PCY 3-Zone Chokeable Electronic Cymbal Pad brings an authentic and immersive drumming experience. It mimics acoustic cymbals with three unique playing zones - edge, bow, and cup. Each zone precisely captures the tonal differences when hitting various parts of a cymbal, offering an unmatched level of detail. With a dynamic response, it reproduces the natural feel of cymbal swinging and stick bouncing, perfect for drummers moving from acoustic kits. The PCY is incredibly versatile. Besides being a regular cymbal pad, it can act as a hi-hat pad when you turn off the cup switch. This helps drummers improve their cymbal skills. But check its compatibility with your drum trigger module before buying. To enhance its performance, you'll need the separately sold CYAT500 cymbal holder for proper integration into DTXdrums racks. With outstanding features, high realism, and solid build quality, it's a must - have for both beginner and pro drummers. Upgrade now and feel the difference! Key features include a realistic playing experience, accurate tonal capture, expressive performance, and versatile functionality. Product specifications cover sizes from 10” to 17” with corresponding weights, 3 playing zones, cymbal choke, a specific sensor system, and standard connections. The package includes a pad unit, a stopper, a stereo phone cable, and an owner's manual.
Using the Yamaha PCY 3 - Zone Chokeable Electronic Cymbal Pad is easy. First, connect it to your drum trigger module using the standard stereo phone cable that comes in the package. Make sure it's compatible with your module before making the connection. Once connected, you can start drumming. Hit different zones - the edge, bow, or cup - to get different tones just like on an acoustic cymbal. If you want to use it as a hi - hat pad, turn off the cup switch. When it comes to maintenance, keep the pad clean. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the pad. Store it in a dry and cool place to prevent any moisture damage. And remember, for the best performance, you'll need to buy the CYAT500 cymbal holder separately and install it properly on your DTXdrums rack.
