    ZIldjian K /A Customs can do anything, any style, whatever you need. I tell you guys what though, Paiste PSTX line is an incredible colorful trash to add a few to your normal line up. They can do anything an have the perfect amount of cut and sustain. They are the perfect percussion cymbals.. (In my opinion of course) Take a listen here on youtube.. (Paiste PSTX)

    also a good friend from me who's playing drums 20 years now told me that he tried out all 4 big brands. He said that he would go with Sabian all the time.

    Depends on song types.. meinl is darker, more musical. Sabian is in the middle in my opinion. Like Sabian, Zildjian is more universal. Not so dark, more bright with high end tones. In and out... I liked them all actually. If I were to take a set to the studio for this song (which is horrible by the way) I’d go with wish-washy, glassy zildjian or Sabians.

    not very fair starting Meinl off at a deficit. Classics Custom cymbals are a different alloy (i.e. cheaper) than the other two. but they held up pretty well in this context. i suspect a better job mixing would have made the other two shine a bit more.

      @tw19771 Před 7 lety

      Estaban Orantes this is an interesting video. The Meinls sound the loudest to my ears with the Sabians a close second, which shows the differences in how people hear things. And I usually shy away from Meinl with their perceived lack of volume and cut, at least some of the lines, like the darker cymbals, but they sit well in the mix here. I am mostly a Paiste guy but the Meinls sound great here, this is so interesting to me because I thought the Sabians were going to win the volume war. But then the Classic Customs were meant to be loud, just didn't think they'd be louder then the Sabians.

    That Crashes on the other hand are to thin for me. Cut but little character. For crashes I'd prefer the Sabians. Even though Meinl came close. For the Ride it is Meinl all the way. Just love Pingy big bell rides.

  • @phoenix11994466
    @phoenix11994466 Před 6 lety +1

    *_They all have a different alloy mix, with Meinl and Zildjian being similar with roughly 80% copper and 20% nickel and tin respectively... Sabian, on the other hand, uses a copper/silver/nickel mix... Some, say, silver gives Sabian cymbals their beautiful mid-range harmonics, but without that zing at the top end, which other people actually love... However, it's the quality of the zing at the top end, that either makes or breaks the sound quality of any cymbal... But, at the end of the day, everyone has different opinions, likes and dislikes in that regard... Personally, I look for a wide range of even harmonics in a cymbal, without any particular frequency dominating... For me, Zildian is a safe bet and fits that requirement admirably, however, lately, Meinl has caught my ear... There is definitely something magical going on with the sound of Meinl cymbals._*

    The Sabian 16” crash cuts better, but holy crap, the Meinl symbols sound amazing.
