Agreed. But I stress that these are designed for practice at a lower volume than a regular set of hats. They’re not meant to sound great. The bonus is that they’re a super affordable option.
I think I paid 85 on Amazon. They work extremely well to simulate real time playing at a lower volume. Do not waste your $ on fancy low volume Zildjian's. For that money buy regular cymbals and put cymbal mute pads on them. The 18" is actually a crash/ride. I have yet to see one break on utube. I have seen these same cymbals on guitar center used cymbal site for $49 for the ride. $49 for the 18" crash/ride.
I just wanted to see if i wod consider buying any low sound,mute,practice cymbals. But seeing this video , my wife qill habe to juat deal with my noise 😂
Honestly, I’ve been playing over 20 years and have never cracked a cymbal. I’m renown where I play for being a loud drummer, but I’ve never cracked a cymbal. I don’t think these would crack. I think my thin cymbals would crack long before these would. These are a great, cheap alternative to more expensive low volume cymbals if you are just using them to practice.
@@BluequackerDrums-lr6bm Great! I plan to buy a set to put triggers on them so the drummers will quit complaining about my e-kit lol. I can use mics for triggering drum shells, but mics on cymbals just pick up too much bleed. Thanks, for letting me know 😎
I have the high hats and they are all right sounding for the money. And about cracking, these are made out of steel according to Amazon, so more durable then bronze or brass
They're meant to be practice cymbals. I think they are great at being that. The worst part about them are the hi hats, BUT I care more about them feeling like a real cymbal when I hit them with a stick or chirp with my foot. If you're worried about the frequency, I'm afraid I can't answer and you'll have to listen to them for yourself in person. A suggestion I have is to wear some headphones or hearing protection of some kind that will dampen the sound even more (at least for yourself).
i wouldnt call them a budget cymball..maybe just cheaper cymbals compared to a brand name... I think Zildjian is great, but that doesn't make them the Gods of cymbals. Their A customs are the only good series they have imo. I think these cymbals sound better
All these cymbals sound pretty decent with exception of hi-hat

Maybe its possible to mix one of them with a real hihat on top or bottom and use the othe one as a third mini crash
THANK YOU. I'm gonna buy the red ones, and use them with rack-mounted condenser mics and my eKit VS the Roland cymbals. Cheers!

do you think you could do a video see if they sound any better / quieter with tape
Possibly! Keep an eye out and we'll see what happens.
curious if these cymbals have lasted the test of time? or did they start to get cracks after a few weeks of playing?
I’ve been playing over 20 years and have a reputation of playing loud - but I’ve never cracked a cymbal. These are still my ideal practice setup.
I bought these and I'm surprised at how okay they sound for $60
Are those comparable to the Temu ones?
No idea I’ve never even seen the Temu site
do you hit them hard, and have they broken?

are the high frequencies annoying?
