Peterson's Drum Blog

Roland has recently announced that they are adding a second CY-12R/C cymbal pad to their TD-12KV-drum kit for no extra cost. Roland prides this cymbal for offering the "rebound, inertia and “swinging” motion of an acoustic cymbal." This cymbal also includes choking capabilities, making it even more similar to an acoustic cymbal than many other electronic pads. This will most likely put more interest in Roland's products due to the additional cymbal, and thus additional setup possibilities, at no extra cost to the customer.
