Re: Pintech Zenbal

2003-04-30 by liberatusvirus

The Zenbal with two voices at Drumbalaya should be called stereo 
like the Yamahas, rather than dual-zone. Since the china is 
described the same way, it also probably triggers on rim and bow. 
For now, as far as I know, the Zenbal comes in only a 14" size. If 
you want to see the china, run a search, even a backward one, on it 
at ebay. A store has been selling it for some time. It looks like a 
standard china, with the Zenbal raised rim (if memory serves).
