The series is hugely impressive - a generous selection of diameters and a quality of sound that belies the price-point.

Paiste is keen to stress that, rather than be considered as a direct replacement for the Alpha series, cymbals represent a new direction in terms of sound and manufacturing. Thereafter, all resemblances cease, as cymbals are more intensely worked, have a wider sound palette and enjoy ruggedly handsome looks. A darkening process - also a closely guarded secret - imparts the equivalent of a patina, that emphasises the lathing grooves and hammer marks.

Paiste 900 series review

One of the first cymbals I ever bought in about was a Color Sound 5 red china, which I still have now. Since then, I have accumulated rather a lot of coloured cymbals in black, custom white and red. The series is crafted from bronze. The Color Sound cymbals — which are the focus of this review — come in four colours; red, blue, purple and black. I recently got to try a small selection of the Color Sound series. With that in mind, the sound of the cymbals I tried break down like this…. The crashes to my ear are a little more in the upper mid to higher sonic range. However, all of them produce a clear and explosive sound and they cut through in a band context. The rides I tried were great. Admittedly, they were both thicker, heavier models but the sound they provided was powerful and clear both in terms of the bow and bell. Cutting is the word here.

By the 20" model the response is close to 11 territory, with a lingering - yet still measured - decay. Find out more about how we test. The china was trashy but not overly so.

They have constantly designed, crafted, and released some of the most innovative shapes of cymbals , outstanding and innovative sounds, and materials. Why most drummers love Paiste cymbals? It is not difficult to understand.

The pair of straight rides offer a clear stick sound with leanings of woodiness over a good spread of unobtrusive wash. Thanks, xipa4. DaveB Well-Known Member. Latest: Peano 8 minutes ago.

I played on a 22" , and must say, totally impressed. One can only tell so much from a few taps. It works side by side with a flat which I sometimes alternate with a Signature flat. Cymbal purge: As!

Rides come in 20" and 22" diameters in regular and heavy weights along with a single 24", which has the splendidly unambiguous title Mega. Contact us. Mongrel DFO Veteran.
