Features
Similar touch and feel as with acoustic
cymbals
The superior design has taken into account not only the
shape of the cymbal, but also the bounce of the stick, and
even the movement caused by playing, making it
possible to play with the same feel as an acoustic cymbal.
They’re quiet!
Rubber is used on the striking surface for a damping
effect.
Edge shots and choking are possible
Sensors in the edge portion make it possible to get
different sounds by striking the bow (upper surface) and
the edge. Choke play—stopping the sound by grasping
the edge portion—is also possible (p. 8). On the CY-15R
(Ride), sensors in the bell portion make it possible to get
different sounds by striking the bow (upper surface) and
the bell (p. 8).
Three way triggering and positional
sensing are possible (When using the
TDW-1 with V-Cymbal Control)
Using the CY-15R (Ride) together with the TD-10
upgraded with the “TDW-1 with V-Cymbal Control”
makes it possible to get different tones from the
positional sensing of the bow portion (p. 8), and from
three play methods: bow shot, bell shot, and edge shot
(Three Way Triggering, see p. 9).
Compatible with all Roland sound
modules
Compatible models: TD-10 + TDW-1, TD-10, TD-8, TD-7,
TD-5, SPD-20/11, and HPD-15
Roland sound modules support methods of play such as
edge shots and choke play (p. 11).
* You have to set the trigger parameters. For details, refer to
Trigger Parameter Settings for the Sound Module
(p.
10).

About the TDW-1
TDW-1 is an expansion board for TD-10. This adds new
sounds (360 tones and 50 kits) and functions to TD-10.
There are two versions of the TDW-1 (Original version
and “TDW-1 with V-Cymbal Control” version). The
TDW-1 with V-Cymbal Control provides trigger types
exclusively for the V-Cymbals. This makes it possible to
use three way triggering and positional sensing on the
CY-15R (Ride), enabling the expressive power of the V-
Cymbal to be used to the fullest.
When using the V-Cymbals, Roland suggests using the
TD-10 + TDW-1 with V-Cymbal Control as the sound
module.
* The screen displayed when powering up with the TDW-1
with V-Cymbal Control installed, is different than the
Original version.
