They made a midrange cymbal sound, well, midrange.
My thought is the same. I bought a set of PST5 cymbals for general bar gig use, and I think they sound better than these do. These look great, but I just don't like the sound of them.
This is a very good review of the cymbals. It is very important to hear and understand when he states the purpose of the color and what it does to the cymbal. I have a set that I have used since 2017 and the they work best when I am in a venue where volume should be low and overtones at a minimum. This is exactly the forte of these cymbals. I play "into them" and not have to be concerned about volume, projection, or sustain. Yet, I do not loose the integrity of the "PAISTE" sound! I must admit that I have had mine for (4) years and no color has chipped or wore off and they yet look new and I have not polished them one time. These are excellent substitutes when I need the sound of my Paiste 2002's but I am not able to use them because of their volume in the venue.
Nice review! In my opinion, these are great cymbals for the price. When mixed in with other instruments, they might sound even better, which is how I usually judge cymbals. I never played any 900s myself, so I can't say from experience.
Great demo. The look is nice. I'm surprised how warm and dark they sound. Nice.
Some of the 1st Users were Bozzio and Steve Jordan on David Letterman.
If I'm not mistaken, Bozzio had a hand in the Development of the Original Visions.
Over a Decade before Carey or Jordison.
I enjoyed the sound of these cymbals much more than I thought but most of all I really enjoyed your playing style and chips, great job great video!
Thanks for reviewing these, I’m curious about the 900 series in general, as i’m surprisingly impressed by my basic PST5 hi hats.As always, a well done review and great insights!
The PST5 series sound better.
@@timbrown6629 no
Tony Williams used a pair of colorsound 14" hihats (in red!) for the track Rise on the Public Image lp 'Album' from 1985 ...I did a session with the producer Bill Laswell in 1999 and got to use the same hihats as it was the same tech on the session...listen to the lp mix (not the Bob clearmountain single mix) and they are hugely prominent. I hope these are the same spec as the original versions as they sound fantastic for recording!
They aren't. I had Colorsound 5 cymbals and they were amazing sounding.
beautifuls cymbals...PAISTE for ever!!!
I like the 16" it's quick in and out, no horrible overtones.
they have a very nice light sound quality to them. On top of looking nice, if i had the money to spend 500 on cymbals, id probably put my money this way
Lovely review. Didn't notice these cymbals being especially heavy per the video. But, they do sound pleasing to the ears and would make a nice setup or an addition to one's own setup of non-colored cymbals.
Nice reveiw enjoyed it.
🤘 I have this ride. It's awesome👏
Like them alot!
Sounds great!!!
I have a set of red ones. I also have a set of 2002. Frankly to my ears they sound v similar. I've not done a comparison ref volumes and sounds myself. But I've had no problems with them at all.
I think that they are the best version of the 900's the color coat makes them better sounding. I have one 1985 16 crash vision..i think Its the First version of the color thing. Terry bozio use tô endorse them. Love the sound of It and the sound engineers always want me to bring them along in every recording session.
Great Review guys.
Actually, for the price the set costs you'd be pretty greatful to have them if that's the budget you had and wanted something that looks like a set and isn't hand me downs or cracked discounted used cymbals.
Well done Paiste for the entry level offer.
Personally, I find the 900 series in general to be a bit too harsh for my taste, but I like the hi-hats in this video, and the Sound Edge hi-hats are great as well
Keep up the evaluations! One could find something redeemable in these blue things in a live band context but Not sure any Paiste have strong bells. Not quite "able to cut through anything". Lol. Only if frisbee'd through a cactus. 🌵
You have been very diplomatic in the product appraisal. I like the look and Copeland's Police touring kit but I'll have to watch a video again to see if they work. Then again he's probably got Paiste Line signatures painted blue, not 900s which sound like 1985 404s. I had some. Good to begin on and get started gigging!
Have you ever played Paiste 602’s or 2002’s? If those don’t provide a strong bell I don’t have a shittin clue what does??
@@ianisaacs2340 Hi Ian. I really consider this 900 set to ge good value for the price. I did have a great 602 crash once! but sold it with first kit. 2002s are wierd mix of lows and chime and they need hitting too hard to get shimmer and wash and yet the rides give too much wash and no ping, more like a tink! Lol.
I like cymbals though, see my RUclips videos and let me know which cymbal you think didn't work as imagined for context and sound efficiency at all volumes. Here's one up close for fun: Doubleshot, Rock Me Baby. Contrasted by: Cos We Ended As Lovers. Louder original band PAWN Or more recent INXS Show gig over my left shoulder. "Close your eyes and" pick the brand!
@@glennrochemusic What’s your opinion on Zildjian As?
@@kiwiangeldust6912 hi mate. I think A's are ok for all round stuff but Zildjian and Sabian have had to make a cymbal that takes abuse and that sacrifices musicality. You have to select the particular weight for the music you make as mediums and heavys are slow and dull unless struck hard and then you're too loud for most gigs. That's why Vinnie was so instrumental in developing A Customs. Thinner with more shimmer. Please see my videos to hear perfect cymbals for every band I play with.
thanks ,interesting comments after hearing this id like 2 18 " crashes looks are great but sound is important
I need a green colorsound
For Color sound 900 the best choice are the heavys, mid cymblas in this line are so dry talking about crashes, rides and more cymbals are very good sound.
That's how i feel when I hit my zildjian I series crash/ride, Like I'm beating it for a loud crash sound! They don't sound bad, just some remove the ink later, that want louder sound!
Nick Carter is a very very tasty drummer 👏🏻👏🏻 I miss Nolly though.. He was passionate and very articulate.. No offence Matt 👍🏻
you need to make one for the regular 900
Further to my earlier post. T I think a video that does a sound Comparison between the same manufacturers different ranges would be very useful. I don't believe that anyone should judge a cymbal range by the price tag. Just cos one cymbal is hundreds of £ more expensive than another doesn't automatically say it sounds 'better'. It really does depend on the ears. But
Is there a difference in sound, From a, Blue, Color-Sound, 18" Crash, Compared to a Red, Purple, or Black, Crash, Of that same-series? ...and ls the 18" Crash considered to be a Thin-Crash or Medium-Crash? ...Cause, l know Paiste makes, Heavy-Crash, Cymbals, For that series. ...Thank you!
I can only imagine if they included a china.. the sound would have been nice to hear
😎👍💗🇨🇭🔥🎼💣🔊PAISTE!!!
You should compare them to the original 1990's "VISIONS" version. The colour finish would chip off after very little use.
Very accurate.
If I had to guess the price, I'd probably go atleast 5o% higher
Which series, medium, heavy?
That guy sure likes drumming that beat lol
Damn, has someone told them they have misspelt Colour...
I don't know, but you misspelled misspelled.
If you look at the cymbals they are spell it as color
@@zoecatreena That is one of the 2 accepted spellings of that word. In the US it's spelled like that.
@@budokaiboy In British English we say misspelt. So as this is a UK channel the spelling is just fine!
@@JennifersEar Whatever, you guys say AL loo min e um and there's only one "I" in aluminum.
I like the 900 series overall, except the crashes I just never got into. These colorsound to me are pretty bad sounding, except the ride that I like. Maybe because it's a bit drier than the regular.
Yikes! I bought a set in black based on my liking the set of regular 900s that I bought individually. Don't like how these sounded though.
I think zildjian zht sound about the same and was way cheaper than this
That coating will get on your sticks, and end up all over your other cymbals, and heads.
These videos always bring out the internet elitists who need the world to know that they JUST CAN'T play with anything short of hand-made B20 Turkish cymbals. My black CS 900s get compliments all the time, including from other drummers. Nobody even says "they're pretty good for intermediate cymbals," much less calling them "horrible." Honestly, if you're offended by the sound of ANY cymbal, you're probably just a miserable person. They're everywhere online, but in the real world, you just don't find many of them. Hmmm...
So true Brian these sound great !!! In fact I just bought one now I’m going to get more these aren’t mid level
Not my choice of Paiste.
Not for me. 😢
Sustain was not impressed
Cymbals are pain to buy imo
Thanks for the review.
But for this drummer they sound as bad as they look.
Oh wow. They sound even worse than I have imagined... Horrendous!
I’ve always hated these. They sound and feel like manhole covers somebody stole off of a sewer and then painted
Depends on what you're looking for...
hats sounds really good and the ride too, crashes are shit
I had a red crash and quickly moved it on. I have the red 22 ride and it’s a keeper. It’s a medium bright, dry thing that does rock well.
Sound cheap...entry level sound.
Horrible!
