Feature:
See above, natural feel and variety of sound choices

Quality:
Roland Quality = Excellent

Value:
You get what you pay for..

Desirability:
Well it's not a 22" Brass cymbal which is a thing of beauty, but hey, it can sound like one, or 50 other cymbals for that matter..

Sound:
The Roland V Drums and CY class of cymbals are excellent. The CY15R Ride Cymbal is very responsive to both light sensitive stick work or hard driving playing. The Edge, Bow and Bell areas feel very real to me and the sounds?? Well you have dozens of sounds choices via a TD-20 Module. You can custom select various cymbal sounds seperatley for both Bell/Bow or Edge Bow, for example you could have a China sound on the edge and a Ride sound for the bow/bell areas. Very flexible soundscapes..

Ease of Use:
Plug and Play

Support:
I own a dual TD-20 Vdrums kit with 20 drums/cymbals/pads, an SPD-S Sampling pad, 2 Fantom X7 keyboards, all used in studio and for live shows, very satisfied with Roland at home and at play..

Overall:
So far this is the best I have found..
