Larger crash for percussion players - very controllable and lively played by hand, fingertip or stick.

Experimenting with FX options for the Hand Cymbal range I'm developing. First up, this 11" with 5 holes for a quick, airy, splashy crash sound.

Thanks to Russell at Big Island Cymbals for sending the rare Martian Bronze Splash Cymbal.

I'll demo it as-is, then do a video or two showing why it looks and sounds the way it does, and what can be done about it.

I like to confuse and distract my students, there's nothing to learn when you know what you're doing!

You might think a laser target is there to help accuracy... Quite the opposite.

Prototype batch 2 in progress! Designed for percussionists who strike by hand, these also sound great with mallets & sticks.

Thanks to all who have taken part in the survey so far, the design of these cymbals goes against what received wisdom might have you believe.

More details as the project moves forward.
