Ride Cymbal; Bow Shot; Edge Shot; Bell Shot - Yamaha DTX900 Owner's Manual

Ride Cymbal

As with an acoustic ride cymbal, you can play the cymbal
pad (e.g., PCY155 illustrated below) via the various ways
as illustrated below. Keep in mind that the example
PCY155 illustrated below is divided into three sections.

Bow Shot

Hitting the main surface of the pad (bow section located
between the cup and edge) produces the Bow Shot sound.

Edge Shot

Hitting the outside edge produces the Edge Shot sound.

Bell Shot

Hitting the cup produces the Bell Shot sound.
Bell Shot (rim 2)
Bow Shot
Edge Shot (rim 1)
Choke
Grabbing the edge of the Cymbal pad immediately after
hitting it will stop the sound.
NOTE
• Depending on the voice assigned to the Edge section, the sound may not
stop immediately.
Mute
Hitting the pad while holding the edge produces a muted
sound.
