    Studio owners - if you're looking to upgrade your recordings in a big way, check out this exclusive cymbal bundle from Sweetwater. Meinl let us assemble our dream team across their six Byzance lines, and this package is what we came up with. You get hi-hats that are crisp and controlled, crash cymbals that melt into a mix, and a ride cymbal that's the perfect blend of dry, pingy, and washy - especially under a mic. Not only is each cymbal in this Meinl Byzance set a blue ribbon winner on its own, but we chose each piece because of how it interacts with the others. We're also throwing in a free Byzance Trash Crash and some fun accessories to liven up your recordings.

    Not sure what he’s talkin about with the 22 inch dark raw bell ride. All the descriptions of the ride were pretty spot on besides when he said if u lay into the side it will open up as in having some sort of crashability. This ride has no crashability, it is definitly dry and very heavy so u won’t be getting any crashability. Obviously any ride will “open up” when u bash the side but he shouldn’t have said it opens up over the entire kit cause it definitly does not. In a rock/metal band setting , it is absolutely non existent but what makes this ride is the body or bow and of course the amazing sounding raw bell. The normal 22 inch dark ride has a lil more crashability over this one, the raw bell really dries out the rest of the cymbal. But most people aren’t too worried about crashability when getting this ride so it doesn’t matter but if that matters to some, I feel his description was misleading cause I’ve seen videos where people say a certain ride has crashability then when I buy it, it was definjtly disappointing. The 22 inch sand ride or the transition ride or the 22 inch traditional medium ride which has the bestttt crashability out of any ride I’ve played while still maintaining good stick definition and a nice cutting bell but all these have great crashability over the dark ride. But out of all dry cymbals with crashability not in mind, i prefer the 22 inch extra dry medium ride over this dark ride.

    • @adamalexanderray
      @adamalexanderray Před 6 lety +1

      Andy Ham I have the 20” Dark Raw Bell Ride and it has little to no crashibility. If you really bash it you can get it to open up, but it’s weighted between medium and heavy and it’s lack of lathing really keep it controlled with very little wash. It has little to no flexibility and feels very rigid when bashing it. I have the 22” Jazz Big Apple Ride and that really does open up and wash beautifully when needed. I also have the Jazz 20” Tradition Light Ride and that starts washing out even while playing light sticking if you don’t control your playing. The Raw Bell Ride is the heaviest, driest and most pingy Ride I have, it’s a beautiful cymbal, maybe he had a very thin version of this model 🤷🏻‍♂️
