Sound Character: Low pitched ping sound with good definition, spreading the tip of drumstick ride sound without too much wash and with good definition for a thin cymbal. Soft, broad and full-bodied attack, with a beautiful “opaque” and dark shimmer at the same time. The bell is medium, not very pronounced, with a good sound. The attack has a medium decay and the sustain is medium to long, which makes it a smooth and full-bodied cymbal for ride/crash patterns, with good projection and surprising volume without being uncontrolled. It is a very articulated and responsive cymbal, that responds with a very high sensitivity to any touch intensity.
