Playing Methods
Bow Shot
This is the most common playing method, playing the pad face of the cymbal. It corresponds to the sound of the "head-side" of the connected trigger input.
If Using TD-10 + TDW-1 with V-Cymbal Control
When you use the TD-10 + TDW-1 V-Cymbal Control, three way triggering is possible. * Three Way Triggering is not available with the TD-8.
Bow
Edge Shot
This playing method involves striking the edge with the shoulder of the stick. It corresponds to the sound of the "rimside" of the connected trigger input.
About Three Way Triggering
By using two cables to connect the CY-12R/C and a TD-10, you can then perform using three different tones: bow, bell, and edge.
TDW-1 specifications allow the Three Way Triggering function to be used with only one V-Cymbal. For example, if you use the Three Way Triggering function with one CY-15R, you would not be able to use Three Way Triggering if you added another CY-12R/C.
To make use of edge shot, you'll need to connect to a trigger input jack on the percussion sound module that accommodates rim shots.
