Roland CY-14R-T 14" Thin Ride Cymbal - Electronic Drum

The Roland CY-14R-T is a 14-inch electronic ride cymbal pad designed to bring a more authentic acoustic feel to V-Drums setups. Its defining feature is the thinner profile — a deliberate design choice that allows the pad to swing and respond to stick strikes more naturally than thicker electronic cymbals. This improved motion, combined with a multi-sensor triggering system, creates a playing experience where bow patterns, edge crashes, and bell hits each feel distinct and responsive. Choke support rounds out the expressive capabilities, letting players grab the edge to mute the sound just as they would on a real cymbal.

Built with Roland's reputation for durability and precision, the CY-14R-T is intended for drummers who have outgrown basic cymbal pads and want their electronic kit to feel closer to an acoustic setup. The three-zone design means your drum module can assign different sounds to the bow, edge, and bell independently, opening up a wide range of sonic possibilities. It mounts on a standard cymbal stand and integrates seamlessly into existing V-Drums configurations. For players who spend significant time on ride patterns and value nuanced cymbal response, the CY-14R-T represents a meaningful upgrade in both feel and playability.
