      @listenchump4041 Год назад

      I did the same with a friend's china. it was a crappy-ass china cymbal, so we thought of modifying it. At first I hammered it as hell, but using an anvil (actually a sledgehammer head) so hammering would no compromise the integrity. Then I put the cymbal on a drill to make it turn like they do in cymbal manufacturing, and sanded it until the finish was smooth. Then I drilled holes, 3/4 inch to 1 and 1/2 inches, and honestly at that point it looked real pretty. Still sounded like crap, but a prettier crap.

Dream is essentially just a logical step up in quality (and price) from those. The decidedly thinner weights are great for a crash/ride if you don't mind a bit of a wash to the tone.

  • @theo_korner
    @theo_korner 2 года назад +2

    Okay okay, firstly you didn't bury your cymbal not deep enough (you know the 6 feet rule) , and secondly you didn't let it age enough. It takes a good month or two for the earth to transfer its warm tones to the cymbal. Also, if you try again I'd suggest you burry it in a wet soil, not too sandy and with a good clay and humus content. The moisture will help the surface to oxidate which only aids with the transferal of warm earthy tones to the buried cymbal

    ❌ ferment it
    ❌ Sell it off to a music store.
    ✅ sell it off to an idiot looking genius/savant that is The Domo.

    It sounds much better than I expected it to. I've heard much worse sounding cymbals that just sound like hitting metal food trays.

    I really dig this crash. It’s my kind of sound, bright, articulate and fast.

    That bell man, god damn. The overall sound of the cymbal is like a vsti kit come to life
