Welcome to 'The One' Sound Specific Cymbal Program by Drumazon - Recorded by Us and Chosen By You. You can buy the actual cymbal(s) featured on this video. The video starts with a full demonstration set to music, in the middle the cymbals are separately played, finally the original piece is played again with an isolated cymbal mix.

Paiste first pioneered this featured production process with their innovative Reflector Cymbals back in the 1980’s

• Unlike modern high speed buffing methods, Paiste Reflector Cymbals employ a proprietary surface treatment technique that generates a smooth, luminous, shimmering finish - without producing high levels of heat, which can substantially alter the natural condition of the bronze metal and dampen the cymbal sound.
Sonic Characteristics of the Reflector Finish:Paiste’s Signature Reflector cymbals basically share the same overall sonic parameters, feel and function as corresponding Signature models with a regular lathed finish. The general effect of the Reflector finish on these cymbals is very subtle and may be summarized as follows:
• The sonic timbre and color of these instruments is somewhat lower, which makes the cymbals feel a bit darker.
• The frequency range is wider due to the lower pitch of the fundamental note and higher overtones at the upper end of the frequency spectrum.
• The frequency mix is cooler and cleaner, as the high, middle and lower frequencies are more distinctly layered, due to the less dominant character of the middle layer - the «voice» of the cymbal.
• The stick sound and bell character tend to be slightly more distinct and separated, while the Hi-Hat chick sound tends to be a bit softer, warmer and more compact.
• The duration of the cymbal’s sustain is relatively similar, however the midrange frequencies fade faster.
• The overall feel is substantially the same, except Crashes and Chinas tend to feel a bit softer and more controllable.
• Weight, volume range, transient response and dynamic intensity are close to identical.

• Size: 10"
• Weight: medium thin
• Volume: low to medium loud
• Stick Sound: papery
• Intensity: lively
• Sustain: medium short
• Bell Character: integrated
