- In this video I wanted to demonstrate all of the different cymbals I have that I'd consider "jazz rides". I've gone through several different (and maybe too many...) different ride cymbals over the years and at the moment I'm happy with this set that I have and wanted to share.

I just noticed rewatching this for like the 8th time, but those 1950’s and some 1960’s A zildjians actually are hand hammered not machine hammered. You can see a big shift in the sound around the 70’s which is also when the Istanbul factory for K zildjians shut down
For sure! The particular A Zildjian in this video was definitely machine hammered. Very uniform and consistent. Plus the stamp indicated it was not a K Zildjian.
that 22 K light is the winner for me
Unfortunately I sold that one recently for something different. They are amazing rides!
I love these types of cymbal showcase videos. Your collection is as lovely as your playing, thanks for sharing man
Thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video.
I like the sound of the Istanbul Mehmet and the K Light the best of that group you've got there. nice collection amigo
Those are definitely stand outs in the bunch. Thanks for watching!
Love em all! Great collection of rides and very nice playing showcasing these beautiful instruments!
Thanks for checking them all out!
Nice collection and nice playing!
Thanks for watching Craig!
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thanks for this!
Thanks for watching!
22" K Light Ride!
I found this cymbal in Vienna, Austria and brought it to Zurich. Beautiful instrument.
Great presentation, thanks a lot!
It sure is a nice one! It's a very versatile cymbal. Thank you for watching!
Was kann ich an meinem pst 101 brass 20 " ridebecken noch besser machen das es noch besser klingt.😅
Awesome collection, I really dig that Mehmet. Great playing too!
One of my favorites as well! Thanks for listening!
Great content, thanks
Thanks for watching!
That 21 legacy……. Droolin!!!!
It’s a really good one!
My two 'jazz orientated' ride cymbals are an older Zildjian K 22" flat ride and a Meinl 'Vintage Pure' 22" light ride. Both have a lot of stick definition the Zildjian K has a higher pitched 'crystalline' sound and does not crash well vs the Meinl is darker and dryer and it does double as a crash. They provide interesting contrast in ride cymbal voices during passages in jazz tunes. Out of this group in the video I really like that Zildjian K light ride they are all nice though.
All great cymbals you've listed there. Thanks for watching!
Wow, nice presentation thanks. Not hard to see/hear why Keropes have held their value over time ✌️🌻
Thank you for taking a listen! Yes they are a timeless sound 🥁
Not sure about the rude comments regarding your voice, I can hear tou quite clearly.
Super enjoyable video.
Subbed !
hopefully in the future I can get some more mics involved for this type of video. Thanks for watching!
strongly advise you to look into the Zildjian ZBT ride, it gives you a spangalang that cannot be replicated
As long as I can get that Tony sound 🐯
@@austinhass2638 You’ll never get that Tony Williams sound from budget cymbals like the ZBT line. Tony play Istanbul Mehmet cymbals , and they’re not a budget line, they’re hand crafted and expensive.
@@chuckc7375 it's obviously a joke, dude.
@@chuckc7375 there are many handmade mehmet rides below 400 € and sound very good
You should try some KCons , they are really nice.
I have a few now and I like then a lot!
For sure my favorite would have to be the Mehmet!
Mine as well! Thanks for watching!
Very nice video! A veteran myself I’m impressed of your presentation 🙏🏻
Quick summary: The old Avedis or the Kerope
Very nice presentation. I couldnt hear you to well , had to put phones on .Been playing on and off for a long time. Since 1962 started but playing in bands 1967 and up .Jazz is my preference but had played in rock bands as well. Thanks.
Thanks for taking a listen!
Thank you for presenting this. I have to tell you the miking of the cymbals were not very prominent. When you played the drums they over shadowed hearing the cymbal. so for me it was difficult to really hear just the sound of the cymbal. It may have been more beneficial just to play the cymbal by itself for most of the demonstrations and play a few crashes. I think the Zild. K light I liked the best. Again thank you for your presentation.
Hi Stephen, I did play the cymbals alone a little bit before including the full kit but maybe some more of cymbal alone would be helpful. I wanted to give some context for each cymbal. Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching!
Are you playing a Gretsch Catalina Club?
Yes I’m playing a catalina club 18”X14” bass drum. The snare is a Ludwig Supralite 14”X6.5”.
Drums and a vibraphone.. Lionel Hampton fan 🤔👍
I try to keep my mallet chops in shape 😅
very quiet sound, can't hear speech on a laptop at this volume. (probably need a lavalier or dedicated vocal mic when recording the whole session via the drumkit overheads or whatever it is you are doing here. the cymbals sound great, agreed, perhaps the vocal mic ducks when the overheads signal hits... dunno)
At the time a Zoom Q2N was the best audio I could capture. Hoping to pursue better audio in the future!
Which snare do you play?
In this video I was using a Ludwig Supralite 14"X6.5" steel snare. I have several others I used as well. Thanks for watching!
22" K Light Ride!
Not a repeat post...It is a repeat sentiment!! I love this ride although I think Austin doesn't much care for it...everyone hears thru their own ears....Peace!
Unfortunately I ended up parting ways with this cymbal. It was beautiful but didn’t fulfill my needs.
That snare sound is proper as F
Thank you! Something about Ludwig snares just works…
I want a paiste rude ride
Unfortunately I don’t own one. Thanks for watching!
Flat ride cymbals 3:40
That's the one!
Poor quality volume on voice. Cymbals fine but mike yourself
Definitely for future videos. Thank you for watching!
Imho he's talking top much...
And that’s why there are time stamps so you can skip straight to the playing. Thanks!
You're trying to record the sound of a cymbal you but can't even control the volume of your voice?
There are many UA-cam videos showing the sound of cymbals, but none offer such an underground introduction.
Finally take the mattress out of your mouth and speak more clearly!!!!
I’m sorry you were disappointed with the audio in this video. I’m looking to improve audio with future videos.
With halfway decent headphones, everything is clear as a bell.
Amazing 😲. Become an online boss = P R O M O S M!!
