Hi Bill,

Rick is supposed to be sending me and OGD a ZB3 cymbal to review, but 
it may not happen for a while. We still have to make the 
arrangements. You might not want to wait (grin). I don't have a 
current reading on the Zenbals, but I had a preliminary test run with 
a 14" PC cymbal months ago. I wasn't convinced that it triggered well 
with a Yamaha DTXpress module. This verdict is subject to revision; 
OGD is going to have a go with the same one that I had within the 
next two weeks. I can, however, highly recommend the Visu-lite line, 
which is now in the Pintech family as well. They trigger flawlessly. 
Remember, however, that the ride is a true dual-zone, requiring two 
inputs.

Ed
