Need some help setting up a CY-15R

Hello MD Community,

I just scored a great deal on a used CY-15R, and I'm not having much luck setting it up. I looked at the library provided by Anders but still not understanding how to get the Bell/Bow/Edge/Choke to work. If someone has this working, would you please post some screenshots of your config?

Thank you!

Thanks that helped, i'm getting a separation between zones now. I have the Bow/Bell input plugged into the Ride input on MD, and the Bow/Edge input plugged into Aux2. Is this correct or should I plug both cables into Aux inputs? I had to do something slightly different than the instructions to get it to work. I had to configure the bow note on the Bow of the Aux2 input to get MD to send the bow note to BFD. It doesn't seem to send the note that I set on the Bow of the Ride input, which is different than what I expected based on the instructions.

I don't see any info on how to setup the choke, is this done via the third zone on one of the inputs?

It must be two consecutive jacks, e.g.
Aux1 and Aux2
or
Aux2 and Aux3
or
Aux3 and Aux4.

So if the first jack you use is Ride then you have to use Ride and Crash jacks.

I don't see any info on how to setup the choke, is this done via the third zone on one of the inputs?

Choke functionality will work automatically after you follow the procedure form viewtopic.php?p=17613#p17613

Ok it's working now, using consecutive Aux inputs produced the desired results, thanks for the help!
