If you remove the CY-14R-T/CY-12C-T
Do not place or store the unit in a location where an object
might contact the edge sensor, or where pressure might be
applied to the edge sensor.
Such conditions will cause malfunctions.
Mounting on the Stand
1. Use a commercially available drum key to tighten
the stopper bolt.
* This step is not necessary if you’re using a Roland-made stand that is
equipped with a stopper.
The stopper keeps the V-Cymbal from turning, preventing
the tangling of cables on the stand.
Stopper
Bolt
Tighten the bolt
with a commercially
available drum key.
Attach the stopper
so that the bolt is on
the right-hand side,
from the performer’s
perspective.
2. Attach the V-Cymbal, while positioning it so the
Roland logo is located on the side opposite the
performer.
Cymbal nut
Felt washer
Position the Roland logo
on the opposite side of
the playing area.
3. Tighten the included felt washer and the cymbal
nut to obtain the desired movement.
* If you are using a Roland-made stand that includes a felt washer and
cymbal nut, use the felt washer and cymbal nut that are included with
the stand, and do not use the felt washer and cymbal nut that are
included with the CY-14R-T/CY-12C-T.
* Double sounding may occur if the cymbal nut is loose.
4. Secure the cables in place with the cable tie, and
leave some slack in the cables to ensure they are
not pulled by the movement of the V-Cymbal pads.
Leave some
slack in the
cable.
1. Be sure to make this
small plastic hook
visible from you.
Wind a cable tie around
a cable.
2. Wind a cable tie around
the pipe and tighten it in
order to not to slip.
Insert
the small
plastic hook to
a hole to secure
the cable to the
cymbal arm.
Secure the cable in place with the
cable tie.
* Take care to ensure that the cables do not touch the V-Cymbal pads
and/ or the stand. A cable touching a V-Cymbal pad or a stand may
cause double sounding or other incorrect operation.
Connecting to a Drum Sound Module
Using the included connection cable, connect the V-Cymbal to
the drum sound module.
* Use the supplied connection cables (stereo) to make the connections.
If mono cables are used, edge shots, bell shots, and choke play cannot
be supported.
Connect the L-shaped plug of the included cable to the
V-Cymbal pad.

About three-way triggering (CY-14R-T only)
The CY-14R-T can take advantage of your percussion sound
module’s three-way triggering functionality to allow you to play
bow, bell, and edge separately.
Connect the two outputs BOW/BELL and BOW/EDGE to the drum
sound module at the same time.
For details on the connection method and settings, refer to the
owner’s manual for your drum sound module.
* If you won’t be using the three-way triggering functionality, connect the
BOW/EDGE OUTPUT jack (not both) to your drum sound module.
Recommended Parameter Settings
These are the recommended values for the trigger parameters
when using the CY-14R-T/CY-12C-T with various drum sound
modules.
If the “PAD TYPE” or “TRIG TYPE” of your drum sound module
provides a “CY14RT” or “CY12CT” setting, choose either of those
settings.
If “CY14RT” or “CY12CT” is not one of the available values, refer to
the support information on the Roland website.
http://roland.cm/trigger_prm
You may need to adjust the trigger parameters depending on
how you’ve mounted the CY-14R-T/CY-12C-T and the location at
which you’ve installed it.
For details on editing refer to the owner’s manual of your drum
sound module.
Bow shot
This is the technique of striking the bow.
It corresponds to the sound of the “head-side” of the connected
trigger input.
Nuance changes depending on the strike location
* Strike location information is
received only when plugged into
the specified input on a Roland
sound modules (such as the TD-27)
that are capable of the positional
detection feature.
Bell shot (CY-14R-T only)
* Bell shots are possible when the connection is made to BELL output.
This is the technique of striking the bell.
Striking the bell area will produce the bell sound of the
connected trigger input.
Making the Settings Playing Method
The response to various playing methods depends on the drum sound module. For details, refer to the owner’s manual of your drum
sound module.
