Lemon LE-9C2 9" 2-Zone Electronic Splash Cymbal, Edge Choke, Accent FX | Compatible with Alesis & Roland, Textured Rubber Rebound Surface, Quiet Practice, Natural Playing Feel

As someone who has really searched hi and low for good electric cymbals (regardless of price), you need look no further. I can't speak highly enough about the Lemon brand. As a seasoned drummer with many years of experience, I do have to say am I quite surprised by the quality of any of the Lemon products. Personally, I've always wanted and electronic cymbal that has a more realistic size to mimic playing on a real acoustic kit and these absolutely fit the bill. They have good weight and feel to them and I find that they play exceptionally well when dialed in to your module of choice (I use a Pearl Mimic Pro). They do exactly what they say the do and they are easy to set up on your kit. I have multiple crashes, the new 20" ride and china...All Lemon. Even my hi hats which I have found to superior to my previous Roland hats are Lemon and I love them! I would highly recommend to anyone needing great responding, realistic looking and feeling electric cymbals!

I bought four Lemon cymbals about a month ago. One 18' ride, two 15" crash/rides and a 9" splash. I did a lot of research and saw a lot of very good reviews. I can verify that these are just as good as my Roland CY -15R and CY-14 cymbals. The rubber is a bit harder, and they are a bit thicker. Because of this they are a bit louder than the Roland cymbals. The triggering on the Lemon cymbals is just as good as the Roland's. You can't beat these cymbals for the money. Time will tell how durable they are, but if they last even 5 years they will be well worth the money! Update I have had these cymbals for two months now and still believe they are a great value for the money. I recently bought a Roland TD-50X drum module with the digital hi hat, ride and snare. The digital ride is amazing and much better than the Lemon, but it cost nearly 4 times more. The only issue I have with the Lemon ride is the bell is small and it has a hot spot right in the center of the bell, straight down from the logo. I turned the ride a bit to the left to move the hot spot to the right and away from where I am hitting the bell. Basically, the Lemon logo sits left of center as I tend to hit the left side of the bell. If you hit the right side of the bell then reverse the logo to the right and that should help with the hot spot. I moved the 18" Lemon to the left side of my kit and use it as a two zone crash/ride. The Lemon cymbals are a bit hotter (more sensitive) than the Roland's so I have turned the sensitivity down in my module. Great cymbals for the money and they blend well with the Roland cymbals!

This Lemon Ride cymbal is an amazing upgrade from my 10” single zone Alesis Nitro cymbal. The rubber feels nice, much softer than my other cymbal pads. After connecting the cables I realized the output 1 & 2 were swapped, meaning the edge/bow output was triggering the bell and vice versa. I switched the cables around, which is a temporary fix for now, but eventually I’ll open it up and change over the connector as a permanent solution. Playability is awesome! Although the cymbal is directional with a logo on one side which is meant to be “away” from the drummer. However, the ride and bow triggers are 360 degrees so I’m able to get either sound from any side of the cymbal. The edge is only triggered on the “front/close” to the drummer side of the cymbal. I’m using the cymbal on an Alesis DM10 MKii Pro module connected to a Scarlett 2i2 audio interface running into Reaper and GarageBand, both using AddictiveDrummer 2 and Steven Slate 5.5 VST’s. With both options I get all 3 zones, choke, AND full sensitivity/acceleration range. Based off my experience with this Ride, I plan on ordering Lemon crashes next! **These dual-jack cymbals will work with Roland and Alesis modules that support dual-jack rides. They will NOT natively work with Yamaha modules and be sure to use TRS cables to get the proper zone split.**

This thing is so rugged. I imagine it will last just as long as my ruined symbols. The rubber is thick and you can tell it’s good strong quality. It is a little hard to the hit. If you’re used to something softer your arm will have to adjust to hitting a harder surface and it’s a little louder. Other than that, my only complaint is you really have to smack the bell to get it to switch over to that as the sound being triggered but this is a great symbol for the money.

Good quality and sound. I have went through 2 Roland cymbals that cost much more. Hoping this holds up better.

Looks great, awesome dynamics, crash really nice too and the feel is more like an acoustic drum

Using this 15" Ride/Crash to replace a CY-15R with a failing trigger that was being used as a 2nd crash. Trigger works well - sensitive and predictable. Slightly louder material than the Roland it replaces, however I feel that the stick bounce is more natural overall(similar to the newer CY-16R-T feel). Purchased on black Friday, so the price was an absolute steal. Will absolutely consider purchasing more of these as I phase out old Roland cymbals. If I experience any issues down the road I will update my review accordingly.

You really can't beat Lemon cymbals

Alta calidad

Me han parecido unos platillos estupendos. Siempre uso Roland, pero se les está yendo la cabeza con los precios. Esta opción de Lemon es estupenda, cuestan la tercera parte, son bonitos y modernos y funcionan perfectamente con los módulos Roland. Recomiendo informarse de las compatibilidades con los marcas antes de comprar. Me han encantado los Lemon. Eso sí, es de 11'5". Lemon creo no fabrica ni 11" ni 12"

Excellent!!! Works excellent with My TD17. Seems to be a well made product but time will tell that being said the $ to quality is hard to fathom. Very responsive and clean/crisp. Left the TD settings to the CY12 set up works very well there. A bit of tweaking in the EQ department but that's 1/2 the fun. Shipping was insane fast. I would recommend this if looking to replace/upgrade! Believe me if it where junk I would be the first to......!

Very happy with this purchase. The product quality is excellent, shipping was fast, and the seller was very responsive and helpful. Would definitely buy again.

Triggers as well as my Roland i replaced . Its dual zone and comes with the rotation stopper and allen key to adjust the stopper. happy with the purchase and using with a Rolan V series drum module. Arrived within a day in excellent packaging and instructions were included in box. would buy again.
