0:00 - 17" Square Hihats
3:15 - 24" Jupiter Ride & 10" Jupiter Cup Chime
5:23 - 24" Multi-Bell, 12" Spoxe, 6" Cast, & 3.5" Heavy Flat Disk
6:58 - 24" Cross China
8:14 - 21.5" Neptune
Yup, even MORE wierd cymbals. These all come from GM Designs Cymbals. Our conversation started out with the idea of making a set of square hihats like the ones Sabian used to make. I realized that finding a set of the square sabian hihats would basically be impossible so I asked GMD to make a set. After that they thought it would be cool to send some more of their crazy cymbals! If you are looking for a unique sound for your kit, GMD most likely has something for you. Whether its an effects cymbal or just an odd ball take on a "normal" cymbal.

These were all appropriately nuts. Your little dubbed groove with the various chimes and discs was spiffy.

I have one of the first ever 24" Jupiter Ride cymbals and it is one of my favorite ride cymbals. I have played every large bell/mega bell ride from Zildjian, Paiste, Sabian, and Meinl, but the Jupiter Ride has the best combination of dryness, darkness, and penetration in my opinion. Everyone should check out this guy's stuff.

A weirdo cymbal skeptic, I still think every one of these has a unique sound. Not a fan of the square hats, though, as the constantly changing edge would drive me crazy. Thanks for showcasing these. The spinning wagon wheel with the triangle striker was my favorite effect.

If the squares were cut inside the cymbal, definitely. Like the china, but with sharper inside corners. As those hats are, they should be fine unless they didn't anneal where the corners are flattened out a bit.

I am curious to know. If you had to build your favourite kit out of all the different separate drums and cymbals you have what would that kit look like. [edit] I really liked the sound of the square hats. I didn't think they'd be all that but they sound really nice.
@JackofAllMinistries 8 ай бұрын
Dude, those square hats were awesome! I love how playing it like a ride just sounds like a a super washy open open hat underneath a ride sound. Playing with the pedal was cool too. I wonder what a smaller set would sound like…

In inexperienced hands, they may not last long, but with the right touch, they can provide years of enjoyment. Please stay in touch, as we're introducing new models every six weeks. Cheers!
