After reading this Owner's Manual, ensure that it is kept in a safe, convenient location for future reference.
| ! CAUTION Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibil- ity of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following: |
| ·Do not place the product in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over. |
| ·If this product is used with a Rack System or Cymbal Stand, make sure all bolts are tightened firmly. Also, when adjusting the height or angle, do not suddenly loosen the bolts. Loose bolts may result in the rack overturning or parts dropping, causing injury. |
| ·Please be careful when children are close to or touching the product. Careless movement around the product may result in injury. |
| ·When setting the product, please pay close attention to the handling and setting of cables. Carelessly placed cables may cause the user and others to trip and fall. |

NOTICE
- Do not step on or place heavy objects on the product. It may result in damage.
- Do not use or keep the product in places with extremely high temperature (places in direct sunlight, close to a heater, in a closed car, etc.) or high humidity (bathroom, outside on a rainy day, etc.). Doing so may result in deformation, discoloration, damage or deterioration.
- Never leave any materials which are easily color-transferable, such as rubber items, on the drum pad surface. Otherwise, the color of the material may be transferred to the drum pad surface. Be especially careful of this when you store the drum pads.
- When cleaning the product, do not use benzine, thinner or alcohol as it may result in discoloration or deformation. Please wipe with a soft cloth or a damp cloth that has been wrung out thoroughly. If the product is soiled or sticky, use a neutral detergent on a cloth then wipe with a damp cloth that has been wrung out thoroughly to remove any remaining detergent. Also pay close attention so as not to let the water and detergent come into contact with the cushions used in the product; doing so may result in deterioration.
- Make sure you hold onto the plug, not the cable, when connecting or disconnecting the cable. Also, never place any heavy or sharp objects on the cable. Applying excessive force to the cable may result in damage to the cable, such as the wires being severed, etc.
- Do not push or scrape the playing surface of your pad with drum sticks as this may make it less sensitive and/or more difficult to play.
Welcome
First of all, thank you for purchasing the Yamaha PCY90AT—a drum pad designed primarily for use as a cymbal with products from the DTX series of Yamaha electronic drum sets. In order to get the most out of your new accessory, please be sure to read this owner's manual carefully. And after doing so, be sure to store the manual in a safe place so that you can refer back to it again as needed.
Package Contents
Cymbal pad (× 1)
2 Stopper (x1)
Cymbal holder (x1)
4 Stereo audio cable (×1)
Owner's Manual (x1; this booklet)





Setting Up
As shown in the figures, set up your cymbal pad on an electronic drum rack.

CAUTION
If the clamp bolts and other fasteners are not sufficiently tightened, your pad unit may fall, possibly causing injury. It is important, therefore, that you mount your pad unit securely on the drum rack. In addition, you should avoid placing your rack on an uneven surface as this may cause it to fall over, again increasing the risk of injury.
- Attaching the cymbal holder
- Take the cymbal holder from the package and loosen the clamp bolts. (See Figure 1.)
- Slide the holder clamp onto the electronic drum rack as shown by the arrow below. (See Figure 2.)

Figure 1

- Tighten the clamp bolts to secure the cymbal holder in place.
■ Assembling the cymbal pad
- Using a tuning key (sold separately), loosen the stopper's key bolt. (See Figure 1.)
- Remove the wing nut, the two felt pads, and the bolt cover from the cymbal holder. (See Figure 2.)
- Slide the stopper onto the cymbal holder. (See Figure 3.)
NOTE If the key bolt was not sufficiently loosened in Step 1 above, it may not be possible to slide the stopper onto the cymbal holder's shaft. In such a case, loosen the key bolt as much as possible without removing it.
- Replace the bolt cover. (See Figure 3.)
NOTE When assembling the bolt cover, turn it until it stops.

Figure 1

Figure 2

Figure 3
- Secure the stopper in place. With the stopper making full contact with the bottom surface of the bolt cover, tighten the stopper's key bolt using the tuning key. (See Figure 4.)

Figure 4
- Place one of the felt pads removed in Step 2 on the cymbal holder. (See Figure 5.)
- Assemble the pad on the cymbal holder. Lower the pad into place with the cymbal holder's shaft passing through the hole at the center of the cup. When mounted, the stopper's pin should rest inside the pad's smaller hole. (See Figure 5.)
NOTE If the stopper's pin is not positioned fully inside the smaller hole, the pad could become free of the stopper when played. It is very important, therefore, to ensure that the stopper is secured as described in Step 5 above.
-
Place the second felt pad removed in Step 2 on the cymbal holder. (See Figure 5.)
-
Tighten the wing nut to secure the pad to the cymbal holder. (See Figure 5.)

Pads and Trigger Input Jacks
The functions that the pad can perform will depend on which of your drum module's trigger input jacks it is connected to. A chart showing the correspondence between pad functionality and input jack types can be accessed via the web page shown below.

Connecting
Using the stereo audio cable provided, connect the cymbal pad's output to a suitable input jack on your DTX series drum module. At this time, ensure that the L-shaped end of the cable is plugged into the pad's [OUTPUT] jack.

Troubleshooting
If the pad produces no sound, proceed as follows.
- Ensure that the pad is correctly connected to a suitable input jack on your DTX series drum module using the stereo audio cable provided.
For more troubleshooting tips, refer to the Owner's Manual that came with your DTX series drum module. If you still cannot find the information you need to resolve a problem, please contact your Yamaha dealer or a customer support center for assistance.
