    Default Yamaha ECymbal help please PCY65S

    PCY65S. Two zone. Ive read the manual, and I have no idea how to get this thing set up, how to get 2 sounds out of it, how to choke it, etc. Any owners of the PCY65S pad help me?

    Gotta ask a dumb question (cause it happens more often than not)...are you using a stereo cable?...

    The other part to that question is, what module do you have and which jack are you plugging it into? Not every jack is compatible with dual-zone triggers.

    Yea...I'm assuming he has a DTXplorer...if so, input 1 is 3 zone, inputs 5 & 6 are 2 zone...and the rest are mono...however your kick input can be split for 2 mono inputs...(see manual pg. 8)...

    Where are you plugging it in? If you're using the jack behind the kick pad, that is a single-zone input. There are only two jacks that'll allow you to use the dual-zone capability of that pad; 5 (RIDE) and 6 (CRASH). Anything else will work as single-zone only.

    Just and added note, the snare port will support a 3-zone pad.
