Yamaha PCY135 13” 3 Zone Electronic Cymbal Pad The Yamaha PCY135 13" electronic cymbal pad consists of three separate zones: an edge zone; a bow zone; and a cup zone. This enables the pad to recreate the unique sounds that are produced when you hit different parts of a cymbal.    The pad responds accurately to subtle differences in dynamics during performance and can faithfully reproduce delicate cymbal playing, powerful hits, and choking   Cymbal swinging and stick bouncing are also reproduced realistically, so that the pad feels natural even for drummers who normally perform on acoustic drums. Using this pad for cymbal performance training will also bring excellent results.
