Zyn Cymbal Set

SIZZLE CHAIN HITS

All 4 different cymbal types have been recorded with 5 unique sizzle chain hits. Sizzle chain hits are very different from your standard full cymbal hit. They are recorded with a chain laid on the top of the cymbal. This results in a cymbal hit that rattles and has a sizzle to it.

4 UNIQUE STICK TYPES

Each cymbal has been recorded using 4 unique stick types. Stick types include wood stick, plastic stick, wood mallet and nylon mallet. Wood stick hits achieve a classic drum hit sound, while plastic stick hits achieve a sharper attack on the transients. Wood mallet hits achieve a similar sound to the wood stick hits but with a rounder more solid sound. Nylon mallets achieve an almost gong like hit, with a fuller lower mid range high end roll off sound.
