Description

AA

• Small but punchy. The AA Splashes have an immediate response that is fast, crisp and cutting.⁷

AAX

• AAX Splashes are extremely fast and bright, with a strong penetrating cut in all sizes.³

APX

• Response is direct and cutting, with crisp clarity and instant attack for punchy accenting and effects.¹⁴

B8

• Extremely fast and bright with punchy, high end cut for fast accents.¹¹

B8 Plus

• Fast, clean and cutting. Delivers ideal sounds for accents, splashes and effects.¹⁶

B8 Pro

• Bright response is immediate, cutting and glassy. Great for fast accents.¹¹

B8X

• Extremely fast and bright with punchy, high-end cut for fast accents.¹¹

FRX

• The FRX 10″ Splash offers a super-quick, pristine response. It is 100% pure splash tone, and never gets in the way of other live mics on the stage. FRX gives drummers the freedom to play without holding back, especially in lower volume settings.²

HH

• Small, thin, and fast, with a dark touch of tone and its own special character, the HH Splashes deliver low-pitched warmth and darkness.⁹

HHX

• Fast, biting, and colorful with a punchy attack and rapid decay rate for increased bite.⁶

HHX Complex

• Quick, dark and as the name implies Complex. Dual HH and HHX hammering blends the best qualities of both lines. The HHX Complex Splash is definitely one of our purest sounding Splash cymbals.¹

HHX Evolution

• Quick, glassy and penetrating, the HHX Evolution Splashes are Dave Weckl’s choice for quick-punchy accents. An integral model in the Evolution line.⁴

HHX Legacy

• Glassy and biting in a musically deep and dark sense, this punchy model is fast.¹³

Paragon

• Small but powerful, the Paragon splashes deliver fast, punchy responses with plenty of high end cut.⁸

Pro

• Bright, glassy, and extremely fast, with sharply focused, penetrating cut.¹⁵

Pro Sonix

• Fast response and bright, cutting sound add up to accents that penetrate and project with clarity.¹⁵

SBR

• Small and thin, with a fast, punchy and splashy accent response.¹⁰

Solar

• Small and thin, with a fast, punchy and splashy accent response.¹⁴

Stratus

• The new STRATUS Splash features a thin profile that is engineered to move quickly in and out of the mix. Its traditional bell size creates increased volume potential, while its high impact hammering reduces sustain, allowing this splash to effectively cut through the music.¹²

XSR

• The fast, bright response from the small, extra-thin model is great for quick, splashy punches and accents.⁵

XS20

• The fast, bright response from this small, extra-thin model is great for quick, splashy punches and accents that cut in an music.¹³
