Works well on my single zone system
I have Simmons Titon 50 which has 10” single zone cymbals. 1 ride 1 crash. I bought these hoping they would work as a single zone cymbal and they do perfectly. I use the upper input.I can’t speak to the quality or reliability of the multi zone capability but they are a significant upgrade to the stock cymbals. They look great, they feel great beating on and the quality is such I have no fear of damaging them.I was hoping for a more ‘rubbery’ feel based on the looks and being seeming entirely rubber coated, but they still have the rigid, plastic feel of stock cymbals I was hoping to improve on.Aside from that the responsiveness and larger open surface make them a guaranteed trigger, where the smaller cymbals would occasionally misfire and not register all taps.They come with a custom screw cap which I didn’t need I used the same felt gasket and screw from the original cymbals.I am considering getting the high hat since now my current one looks like a baby compared to these.

Cost and performance is excellent!
This cymbal performs perfectly with my Roland TD-50x module. Had my first gig the other night with this cymbal and I loved the response, and size, of a slightly larger cymbal. I have a Lemon 13" and a 9" splash, both work great too, and a Roland 14". I'm considering the 15" china in the near future.

Excellent e-hats, works with my TD27 without any issue at all.
Excellent hi hats. Feels quite natural. However, this might be a limitation of e-hats in general, th semi open, 1/4 open positions just don’t have the same pedal feel, travel or control that real hats do. I don’t change the way I play them compared to acoustic hats - that’s kinda the point. I should be able to play ‘normally’. These hats are good but they’re not acoustic hats. I don’t play with a lot of nuance, but even my hard rock, slushy hi hat pattern gets a little lost. Most of the time I get the sound I’m looking for but frequently I get too much open hi hat or not enough. With acoustic hats I can immediately adjust by feel and sound. This is much more difficult with these hats. I’m no sure $1000 Roland digital hats are any better in this situation. For the price i will not complain much. But man, that last 10% of feel/tone, that is what makes a good hi hat great. These are not quite there yet.

Well worth money, basically plug and play w/Roland TD-17
Love it and what a name for a great cymbal!!!As reviewers state on YouTube and written online reviews, this is no lemon, and I love it. Out of the box Thursday, November 10, 2022, choke works flawlessly, bell works better than my TD-17 KVX CY-13R and much easier to 'find/hit', and crashes perfectly. A little hot spotting near sensors, but same with my Roland cymbals, though the Lemon is easier to notice due to thinner rubber I guess, but can be offset with module settings. I'm a believer and am going to replace all my KVX cymbal pads with Lemon crashes, and possibly the hi hats too, when I get a chance and have the spare cash. Well done Lemon!Will hold on to my new Roland cymbal pads as I don't know yet about durability, but seems to me there shouldn't be any, and if so, from what I hear and read, Lemon is a great customer focused company so far, much better than stories I've seen/read about Roland. Hopefully people won't try and take advantage of that.Seller packaged securely and shipped fast, thank you and will be back!

Great working and looking cymbals
These cymbals are a great addition to round out the extra cymbals on my Roland TD50X kit. I bought 4 cymbals total, two of the 15” for crashes, one 13” and the 9”splash. All work and sound really good. I use the 13 as a china and of course the 9 as a splash. They feel really good to hit. Highly recommended!

Almost as good as Roland 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!UpdateI 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!

Good for the price. Bell doesn't work.
Great look and feel. Rim and bow sound great. However, I cannot get the bell to trigger. Every 100 strokes or so I can hear it trigger but it's just a fluke I suppose? I have a KT-300 and my original ride is going in for repair and I was getting this as a temp replacement then was planning on keeping it as another crash to add on. The 15" Lemon ride looks and feel better then my 12" KAT ride so I would definitely rate 5 stars if the Bell worked.There are two inputs Ride 1 and Ride 2. Ride 1 input has no trigger response whatsoever.
