  1. Another short gear post.

    I am sort of obsessed with these cymbals from Paiste. Giant Beats have the sound I hear when I imagine a cymbal. Maybe I was conditioned as a child by my mother playing Led Zeppelin II and III in the car so often. Who knows.

    They work for almost anything, although the hi-hats are sometimes too “polite” for hard rock.

  6. Do any of you #musicians out there have stories about switching from one brand of gear to another and then regretting that decision? E.g., I recently bought some #Paiste cymbals only to realize that I prefer the #Zildjian cymbals I've played pretty much my whole life. Thank heavens I hadn't sold my Zildjians! 🥁 #musicproduction

  11. Situation:

    I've played #Zildjian cymbals for close to 40 years and only now got the nerve to puck up a set of #Paiste cymbals.

    I've been playing them.

    They're really cool.

    But this switch is a super (not musically) funky experience.

    Everything is way different.

    I'm thinking that if I were a guitarist it would be like moving from a trusty Strat or Tele to a Flying V or a Jackson?

    Does that make sense?

  20. Happy #CymbalSaturday folks! Here is my 16” #paiste Masters Dark Crash. This has a nice cut and darkness to it and I like to follow up hits from bigger cymbals with it as an accent especially. Decent bell but divine wash when really cooking.

  23. Hooray it’s time for #CymbalSaturday ! Today I’m showing my ride cymbal. It’s a #paiste 22” Signature Reflector Bell Ride. The bell on it, as the name would imply, is fantastic on it and cuts through perfectly. I only wish it was crashable, but nothing can ever be perfect 😉

  26. Belated #CymbalSaturday

    These are my 14 inch #paiste crunch hats. These used to be part of the Dimension line and then got pulled into the 2002 line shortly before being discontinued. I am obsessed with these hats, one of my favorite drummers of all time uses them and turned me onto them.

    I also do something a bit non-standard by using the bottom hat on top. It has such a nice chick sound and the slosh sounds just right. The bell is incredible too, almost like a second ride on the left.

  28. oh no... new cymbals incoming 😂 😳 #paiste #cymbals :cymbal:

  29. has anyone here owned a #paiste 2002 thin crash before? I'm considering getting one but curious if folks have any thoughts on them. I like the 2002 series in general. #cymbals #drums #paiste2002 :cymbal:

  33. With a nod to @Cyrus, let’s try out #CymbalSaturday

    What’s a cymbal on your kit you really like and why? My favorite cymbal is my Paiste 18in Signature Full Crash. It has a nice loud, cutting sound when you need it but generally feels super musical and able to blend with any style at any volume level.

  34. #drummers of mastodon, what hats are you all playing these days? Anyone using 15s (or higher) after playing 14s for a while?

    Show us your hats!

    I have two sets up now, my main hats and favorite sounding ones are the Paiste Crunch hats. If you notice my particular non-standard config I’ll be impressed! My other set are Zildjian A New Beats configured as auxiliary hats in a fixed position on the other side of my kit.
