Smartrigger Cymbal Features  
Smartrigger Electronic Cymbals feature many improvements over previous electronic cymbals  
including:  
. Authentic Playability is accomplished by using real brass alloy metal cymbals. This  
means that your sticks respond to the playing surface the exact same way as they do  
when using real acoustic cymbals.  
. Acoustic Dampening – our special patent pending dampening layer provides several  
important features:  
o Vibration dampening to reduce the actual sound of the cymbal by more than  
90%.  
o Waveform reduction reduces the secondary cymbal vibrations eliminating double  
triggering.  
o Shock buffering from the trigger housing.  
. Authentic Aesthetics means that your cymbals look like cymbals not pieces of  
recycled black rubber tires. The vibration dampening layer on the bottom of the cymbal  
is clear! This allows the bottom of the cymbal to look just like a real acoustic cymbal  
when mounted on a stand. You audience will never know you are using electronic  
cymbals!  
. Natural Swinging Motion means that your cymbals respond and swing naturally when  
struck, allowing you to concentrate on your playing while reducing the negative effects  
on the human body which come from hitting stationary objects that have no “give”. The  
cymbals absorbs the impact, not your body.  
. New Dual Piezo Designs - Several of the Smartrigger Cymbals provide a new patent  
pending “ring” piezo sensor centrally located under the bell of the cymbal. Mounting  
directly under the bell, at the center, allows even edge to edge triggering and authentic  
bell playing on a single cymbal surface.  
. Easier Choke – a wider 180 degree choke switch provides easier crash cymbal choking  
on half of the cymbal’s surface.

Setup  
Electronic cymbals produce no sound themselves and require the use of external sound  
modules in order to be used as musical instruments. Smartrigger Electronic Cymbals are  
compatible with many drum modules on the market including those manufactured by Roland,  
Yamaha, Alesis, and Ddrum and can also be used to trigger sounds on any MIDI instrument  
using a “Trigger to MIDI” interface such as the Roland TMC-6.  
Quick Setup  
1. Insert the “right angle” plug into the trigger housing on the underside of the cymbal.  
2. Place the cymbal onto a cymbal stand.  
3. Connect the other end of the cable to your drum module.  
4. Set the trigger type specified for your cymbal and module.  
5. Adjust the trigger settings to suit your needs.  
Connecting the Cable  
Each Smartrigger cymbal comes complete with a stereo 1/4” male to male 10 foot cable. One  
end of the cable had a “right angle” make plug and the other has a straight male plug. The  
“right angle” end should be connected to the trigger housing on the bottom of the Smartrigger  
Cymbal and the straight end should be connected to the trigger input on your module.  
You can tell a “stereo” cable from a “mono” cable by the number of black rings on the plug. A  
stereo cable will have 2 black rings and a mono cable will have only one. Typically, a dual-  
zone or dual-piezo cymbal will require a stereo cable. A single zone cymbal can use a stereo  
or mono cable. We include stereo cables with all Smartrigger Cymbals so you don’t have to  
worry about moving dual-zone cymbal to a different stand only to find out you don ‘t have the  
proper cable wired to that stand.

Proper Cymbal Mounting  
Smartrigger cymbals are designed to be mounted on any standard cymbal stand or mounting  
arm.  
Most stock cymbal stands come with a 6mm or 8m threaded mounting rod, a series of washers  
and a wing-nut. You Smartrigger cymbal should be mounted between the two felt washers that  
come with almost all cymbals stands. If you need additional cymbal hardware, any drum shop  
or music store will have these in stock as they are considered replacement accessories and  
should be replaced when they are worn out.  
Gibraltar cymbal arms are very good for acoustic and Smartrigger electronic cymbals as they  
come standard with a nice ‘T’ shaped black plastic cymbal sleeve. Alternatively, you can  
always use Aquarian Cymbal Springs or other mounting systems with a standard 1/2” bore.

Note that you CAN NOT use a cymbal sleeve with the Ride cymbal as it already has a built-in  
sleeve. Make sure to use felt washers on the top and bottom of the ride.  
Mounting the Hi Hat Cymbals  
The Smartrigger hi hat cymbals offer the best of both worlds and are designed to be mounted  
on a fixed hi hat arm or standard hi hat stand. Your choice of mounting will depend on what  
type of hi hat controller you are using and how much hardware you want to lug around. The  
Smartrigger hi hat is only the trigger. The controller is responsible for the changing of  
sound between open and closed.  
Using a Fixed Hi Hat Arm  
If you are using a typical hi hat controller pedal such as the Roland FD-7 or FD-8, you’ll want to  
mount your Smartrigger hi hats on a fixed hi hat arm. These are manufactured by most drum  
hardware companies and are available from your favorite drum shop. This is the most popular  
mounting method if you are using a Roland drum modules.  
Fixed Hi Hat Arm w/ Roland FD-7 Pedal  
Using a Standard Hi Hat Stand  
Standard Hi Hat stand w/ Visu-Lite RHC-100  
Advanced users can mount your Smartrigger hi hats onto a standard hi hat stand only if you  
are using the appropriate controller (like the VisuLite RHC-100, Pintech Full Range HH10CV  
Hi Hat Controller, or Hart Epedal II). These controllers attach to your stand’s pedal and provide  
the electronics to create the variable positions between the open and closed hi hat sounds.  
These controllers are available from specialty electronic drum shops like Drumbalaya  
Note that these controllers do not provide the foot pressure feature that the Roland VH-12 Hi  
Hat system provides when using a Roland TD-20 module.

Hi Hat Clutch Mounting  
Regardless of which type of hi hat stand you choose, you will mount the top hi hat cymbal onto  
your hi hat clutch. Almost all hi hat arms and stands come with a clutch. You can use any  
clutch you like including a “drop clutch”. All you have to do is replace each standard felt  
washers with two Smartrigger rubber washers.  
Clutch with Standard Felt Washers  
Clutch w/ Smartrigger Rubber washers  
installed  
The dual washers on the top and bottom of the top hi hat cymbal allow for a more natural give  
and swing than if we used two solid rubber washers.  
Installing the Hi Hat Cable  
The included stereo cable with two straight ends should be used for the hi hat connection to  
your drum module. Follow these steps to install the hi hat cable:  
1. Place the hi hat bottom cymbal on your hi hat stand or hi hat arm.  
2. Install your hi hat top cymbal and clutch with 4 included rubber washers as shown  
above.  
3. Connect one end of the included 5 foot cable to the hi hat input on your module.  
4. Pass the cable through one of the holes in the bottom hi hat cymbal.  
5. Plug the other end into to the trigger housing of the top cymbal. The offset jack on  
the trigger housing should leave enough clearance for the cable to pass by the hi  
hat’s mounting rod.  
6. Carefully place the top hi hat with installed clutch onto your hi hat stand.

Triggering the Dual-Zone Crash and Hi Hat Cymbals  
The Smartrigger crash and hi hat cymbals use what is commonly called a “Head/Rim” or  
“Piezo/Rim-switch” type of triggering system. This means that the first “zone” or sound can be  
triggered by activating the piezo trigger (which is mounted inside the small black housing  
underneath the cymbal) and the second “zone” or sound can be triggered by activating the  
piezo trigger and the rim-switch at the same time. The “rim-switch” is the 180 degree gold  
colored band under the cymbal. This is also the “choke” switch that causes a ringing cymbal  
sound to be “choked” off or stopped, by striking the cymbal then grabbing the choke switch.  
. To trigger the Head sound, strike the cymbal’s surface with the tip of the stick.  
. To trigger the Rim sound, strike the cymbal’s edge with a glancing blow  
. To choke the crash cymbal sound, strike the cymbal then grab the edge of the cymbal.

Triggering the Dual-Zone Ride  
The Smartrigger ride cymbals use a dual-piezo design where the main piezo is mounted under  
the bow of the cymbal in the trigger housing and a second piezo is mounted directly under the  
bell of the cymbal. The main piezo is triggered when you play o the bow of the cymbal while  
the second piezo is triggered when you play the bell of the cymbal.  
Smartrigger’s patent-pending design allows you to play the ride cymbal just as you would play  
an acoustic cymbal. Light bell strokes are now possible by playing the bell of the cymbal with  
the tip of your stick. You no longer have to “whack” the bell of the cymbal to reproduce a bell  
sound from your drum module.  
Because the ride cymbal uses a dual-piezo design, you will have to use a dual-piezo input on  
your drum module or split the two piezo triggers into two single inputs using the included Y  
adapter. Settings and specifics for each module are provided below.

Triggering the Triple-Zone Ride  
The new Smartrigger three zone ride cymbal is the most amazingly realistic electronic cymbal  
ever made! It features the same bell and bow triggers as the dual zone ride, but has an  
additional edge sensor mounted on the underside of the front 180 degrees of the cymbal. This  
sensor works similarly to our crash sensor in that it allows the 16” ride to be choked and  
provides an additional zone for an edge ride sound. This edge ride sound is what makes it so  
playable. You can get a crash-ride effect our of your ride cymbal when you strike the edge, just  
like on a real ride!

Setting Your Trigger Inputs  
The following information is only a starting point for setting your module to use Smartrigger  
Cymbals. There are many factors that will affect the triggering and sensitivity of your module’s  
inputs including:  
. Playing style  
. Type of drum sticks  
. Cymbal mounting (stands vs. racks)  
. Types of drums used and their sizes  
. Module features  
. How hard you play  
Start with the recommended trigger input settings and then adjust your module’s trigger input  
parameters to best match your needs.

Notes for using the Smartrigger CY-16RC3 Triple Zone Crash/Ride Cymbal:  
. Turn OFF 3 Way triggering  
. Connect one stereo cable from the bow trigger jack to the RIDE input on your module.  
. Connect the other stereo cable from the bell trigger jack to the EDGE input on your  
module.  
. IMPORTANT!!! Make sure you have the two inputs set to trigger the appropriate sounds  
for each kit  
o Ride Input HEAD = Ride Bow Sound  
o Ride Input RIM = Ride Edge Sound  
o Edge Input HEAD = Ride Bell Sound  
o Edge Input RIM = Ride Edge Sound (Same as Ride RIM input)  
Notes for using the Smartrigger CY-16R2 Dual Zone Ride Cymbal:  
. Turn OFF 3 Way triggering on the Ride input and use the included Y cable on the  
module end of the ride’s stereo cable.

Included Ride Y Cable splits stereo cable into 2 mono inputs  
. Plug the black TIP plug into the RIDE input and the orange RING plug into the EDGE  
input. This places the bow ride sound on the Ride input and the bell ride sound on the  
Edge input. Make sure you have a ride bow sound assigned to the HEAD of the Ride  
input and a bell sound assigned to the HEAD of the Edge input.  
. Alternatively, you can use one of the AUX inputs for the ride without the Y cable. The  
AUX inputs are dual-piezo inputs like the toms and snare and allow for dual piezo  
stereo triggers like the Smartrigger CY-16R. This frees up inputs 10 and 11 (Ride and  
Edge) for two additional cymbals. Make sure to select PD-120 for the input type on the  
AUX input as this will allow the bell and bow sounds to be triggered, then select a ride  
bow instrument and assign it to the HEAD of the AUX input and a ride bell instrument  
and assign it to the RIM of the AUX input. Make sure you have a ride bow sound  
assigned to the HEAD and a bell sound assigned to the RIM of the AUX input.

Notes for using the Smartrigger CY-16R Dual Zone Ride Cymbal:  
. Do not use the included Y cable. Plug the included stereo cable into the AUX 11/12  
input. A Ride sound should be assigned to input #11 and a Bell sound should be  
assigned to input #12.  
. Alternatively, you can use one input for the Ride and use an Xride instrument. This  
setting will allow louder hits to trigger the bell sound and softer hits to trigger the bell  
sound.  
. You can also use a Y cable (such as the Hosa YPP-117) to access input #2, splitting  
the Kick to 1 and assign the bell instrument to input #2.

Yamaha Drum Modules  
Yamaha also offers a few very popular drum modules in the DTX line of electronic drums such  
as the DTXtreme IIS and the DTXpress III. Our splash, crash, china, and hi hat are supported  
when using the PCY-80 trigger input setting. Our ride cymbals will work but are not supported  
at this time.  
Alesis Drum Modules  
Alesis offers exceptional value and very popular drum modules including the DMPro, DM5, and  
DM4. These modules are not officially supported, but may work with Smartrigger Cymbals.  
Email us if you have one of these modules and want to report your trigger settings.  
Ddrum Modules  
Ddrum users are quite reluctant to use any other module and prefer the popular Ddrum4 model  
above all others. Ddrum modules are not officially supported, but may work with Smartrigger  
Cymbals using mono inputs. Email us if you have one of these modules and want to report  
your trigger settings.  
Note: The Ddrum cymbal inputs are not compatible with the choke-able or dual-zone cymbals.  
You will only get one zone from all Smartrigger Cymbals.  
Care and Feeding of your Smartrigger Cymbals  
Smartrigger cymbals are designed to the highest standards and should provide you with a  
lifetime of reliable service. As with any piece of electronic equipment, you should take care  
when transporting and cleaning your cymbals.

Transporting Your Cymbals  
You should transport your cymbals in protected and padded cases. We recommend using  
standard cymbal bags like the one pictured here. The use of hard plastic cymbal-safe type of  
cases isn’t recommended because you can’t clamp down more than a few Smartrigger  
cymbals before you run out of room.  
Recommended  
Not Recommended  
The trigger housings on the undersides of the cymbals are made from a very strong and  
lightweight ABS plastic and are very durable, however care should be taken so that you do not  
stack too much weight on the cymbals. Because of this trigger housing, you will not be able to  
stack these cymbals as flat and neat as you could stack the same number of acoustic cymbals.  
Cleaning your cymbals  
Cleaning the Top Surface  
The top playing surface of your Smartrigger cymbals is made from a real brass-alloy cymbal,  
therefore you should use a damp wet cloth or a non-abrasive cymbal cleaner or cymbal polish  
on the top surface only, to remove stick marks or other debris. DO NOT USE CYMBAL  
CLEANER ON THE BOTTOM SURFACE.  
Cleaning the Bottom Surface  
The bottom surface is covered with the special plastic dampening material and should not be  
cleaned with cymbal cleaner or cymbal polish. Instead wet damp cloth with water and clean the  
surface or in extreme cases, use a specialty plastics cleaner like the kind available for cleaning  
the isinglass on a boat. See http://www.hardlineproducts.com/plexus.html for an example of  
Plexus™ Plastic Cleaner.
