Description

The Vir2osity Duo Ride Cymbal features a fairly raw, earthy, and complex wash that’s tight and controlled. The glassy stick sound tends toward a drier, more raw and wooden note in the unlathed zone, while the lathed zone presents a livelier, crisper, and richer ping. The bell is well-separated and decidedly loud and piercing.

Sound & Feel:

Bright and Steely Character: Offers a cutting tone suitable for various musical styles
Distinct Playing Zones: Allows for versatile expression with different tonal qualities
Heavy Feel: Provides a solid and controlled playing experience

Built to Perform:

Handcrafted in Switzerland: Made using traditional methods that have remained unchanged for over half a century
Artist Collaboration: Developed in collaboration with Carl Palmer to meet the demands of modern drumming
Durable Construction: Designed to withstand the rigors of both studio and live performances

Ideal For:

Drummers Seeking Versatility: Suitable for various musical genres and performance settings
Live Performers: Offers projection and clarity in loud environments
Studio Musicians: Provides a range of tonal options for recording purposes
Carl Palmer Enthusiasts: A tribute to the legendary drummer’s influence and style
