'''Zildjian's Description:''' [[Zildjian Ride#Re-Mix|<<< - >>>]]<br>
'''Review:''' "First of all, the feel of this cymbal is hard; you don't really dig into it. And don't even try to spang-a-lang, you'll just be disappointed. But then, the music doesn't require that. In fact, much of the time, the ride cymbal in drum 'n' bass is really just used for one-note accents, and to that end this cymbal's focused ping works fine—perhaps making the term "ride" questionable, but the sound clearly appropriate. The tiny bell, when struck accurately, isn't too bad at all—again, quiet and controlled, and way better for a cool accent than for driving the last chorus home.<br>

To reiterate what was mentioned earlier, you definitely hit a volume ceiling with this cymbal, which would suggest that miking is an option well worth checking out. In fact, I'd venture to say that as a group these cymbals would benefit from miking in loud live situations. Since drum 'n' bass on record isn't really a loud concept—though it can be live—miking would enable you to retain the timbres of lighter cymbal strokes while upping the volume level to a place the dancers can understand."<br>
