Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The larger OMNI has, unsurprisingly, a bigger presence when played as a ride. The note is deeper and a little more expansive, but remains tight and focused, and projects well.
This riding prowess is matched by the cymbal's crashing capabilities. Like the 18", the 22" opens willingly, delivering a luxurious crash that fades harmoniously.
Crashing and riding at the same time is easily done, with the two competing actions seemingly unaffected by one another."
- Review written by Adam Jones ("Sabian AAX OMNIs review", musicradar.com, September 5, 2011)
Review: "The Omni Ride has two clear and distinct surfaces: two sounds in a single cymbal. Well-made and versatile: useful for those who don’t want too many cymbals in their setup."
- From the original Italian text.
