The CT-14R-T is a handy digital cymbal by Roland. Roland is a Japanese company that produces high-quality audio products. The cymbal has a thinner profile than its predecessors and, consequently, has a more natural feel to it. The cymbal also has a natural motion to it, just like a real cymbal. The response is also more equally divided over the surface of the cymbal. Furthermore, the cymbal has three different responses, on the edge, the bow, and the bell. By holding the edge of the cymbal, the sound will fade.
