Re: 3-ZONE Cymbal Pads ??? are there any? why aren't there any?

2004-01-11 by feefer2

Does anyone know Yamaha's wiring convention to get  
three-zones from one pad, using a single three-conductor 
cable?  

(For two-zone cymbal pads, piezo signal travels via tip, 
rim-switch # 1 is on ring: what of that 2nd rim-swtich?)

I've been wondering that since hearing of the new single input 
PCY150.

TIA,
Chris
