Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The CY-12C-T is part of Roland's V-Cymbals evolution aimed at greater realism: a refined profile and a polished finish to bring the touch and movement closer to an acoustic crash, while maintaining the reliability and consistent triggering characteristic of the V-Drums ecosystem.
Who This Drum/This Crash Cymbal Pad Is For
This pad is designed for drummers from beginners to advanced who want an expressive crash for studio, rehearsal, or stage use. Its precise triggering and edge choke are particularly suited to styles requiring nuance and clear accents: pop, rock, funk, worship, contemporary music.
Features and Innovations
Thinner than previous generations, the CY-12C-T improves playability with a more authentic response under the sticks and a more natural swinging movement. The dual-zone sensor allows assigning distinct sounds to the body and edge, while grabbing the edge activates an immediate choke.
Sound
With a compatible module, this pad delivers crisp crash attacks and controlled note endings, while offering a more "acoustic" feel thanks to a consistent rebound and excellent nuance detection. Its texture also contributes to a visual appearance close to a traditional cymbal on stage.
