Review: This little one can have a LOOOOONG sustain when really hit hard (it is about as thick as a cd jewel case), but if litely tapped, it can be used for accents if playing in medium to loud music. I don't recommend this to anyone who wants quick accents all the time, your best bet would probably be a Bell instead. I use this to imitate the crotale intro in Rush's "YYZ".

Review: I think the sustain is too much for it to be a useful effect. The attack and note themselves are nice, but the sustain is overkill. I'll probably just go back to using a 2oo2 cup chime.

Paiste's Description:
Sizes: 6"
Weight: very heavy
Volume: soft to very loud
Stick Sound: very dry, pingy
Intensity: lively
Sustain: very, very long
Bell Character: dry, anvil-like
Sound Character: Bright, full, warm, brilliant. Narrow range, clean mix. Heavy, very immediate feel. Dominant fundamental note surrounded by prominent, very musical, under- and overtones, which modulate at varying amplitudes. Exceptionally long, seemingly never ending sustain. The ultimate bright, warm, mellow bell sound.
