Members jokerjkny Posted October 17, 2002 Members Share Posted October 17, 2002 Ok, i spent the better part of last night downloading soundclips from the Zildjian website, and tho some sound good, i noticed all the newer models like the A Custom Fast Crashes all sounded much more inyourface and brighter than the others. do y'all trust the soundclips? or should i not trust them at all?

Members Wrawl Posted October 17, 2002 Members Share Posted October 17, 2002 I wouldn't. Besides, it's been made pretty clear that two Zildjians don't sound alike. I'd go to the store before the internet. Maybe just go with Paiste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mR.dnA Posted October 17, 2002 Members Share Posted October 17, 2002 I only trust them to give you a vague idea, because not only will each cymbal sound a little different, everyone hits any given cymbal just a bit differently as well. I just went to GC and banged on em till I found some I liked. Then the other day I went to the site and listened to clips of cymbals I own and play and was thinking damn, if I'd shopped by these sound clips I wouldn't have bought any of these! Everyone always says "go try some out" for a reason - you really do have to do this! Don't judge any given cymbal by a sound clip, even when it is from the manufacturer.

Members Liverneck Posted October 17, 2002 Members Share Posted October 17, 2002 Better off listening to any cymbal before you buy. I don't think a sample on line would be that accurate. I see you play an Elrick. I know some people who play Elrick and they love their bass. Even played a few gigs with Rob, he's a heck of a bassist who makes a great bass.
