Sound Pure's Take
The Meinl Byzance Transition Ride is a hybrid cymbal with complexities galore. For players that want a ride cymbal with dark rich sounds and crashability, look no further. The hammered top allows for great control as well as articulation. The Transition Ride also has a larger bell that is smoother and not too piercing. The bottom of the cymbal has a tight lathing pattern helping with the smooth, dark crashability and is buffed to a brilliant finish. This cymbal weighs in at 2359 grams and speaks well at medium and dynamic volumes.
From Meinl Cymbals
Perfect transition from articulate sticking to wide open crashing while never loosing the stick definition. Clear sticking and a present, but not overpowering, bell. Outstanding versatile ride cymbal.
