Dark and warm but with stronger high-end qualities.
In this edition of our cymbal series, Sound Pure percussion specialist Paul Spencer describes five physical characteristics of a cymbal (diameter, thickness, weight, bell shape, and curvature) and the impact that these characteristics have on the cymbal’s sound.
Zildian's K crash cymbals are complex and sweet with tons of expressive possibilities. Dark and warm with a strong high end. The cymbal won't overpower the kit but gives the rest of your sound a smooth wash.
