Du brut, pas du brutal
K rider 10.02.2019
La première chose qu'on remarque, c'est le pitch extrêmement grave de cette ride compte tenu de ses dimensions. Mais dès qu'on la joue, l'attaque est très nette, c'est précis et articulé. Le son est charnu, si la résonance n'est pas envahissante, elle n'est pas sèche. Ce ping un peu épais, avec un sustain court me paraît être sa caractéristique la plus intéressante. Elle réagit bien aux accents, le pic de graves s'éteint rapidement, et on ne risque pas de perdre le contrôle.

Évidemment, on parle d'une ride destinée au jazz, qu'on joue à un volume sonore modéré. Elle n'est pas bonne en crash, frappée sur la tranche c'est lourdaud, ça traîne un peu trop longtemps. Le dôme est moyennement sonore, pas agressif compte tenu de son pitch grave, il est donc très utilisable.

Esthétiquement, c'est assez réussi, on déplore quelques rayures inimaginables sur une cymbale de grande marque, mais cette Zultan est deux fois moins chère et n'a rien à leur envier sur le plan sonore. Sa personnalité très typée s'intègre bien dans un set plus propre, et apporte une touche originale sans pour autant être trash.

Unglaublich Facettenreich, sehr spannend und pure Spielfreude!
SantiSan 28.05.2020
Ich suchte nach einem Becken für eine leisere Spielweise ohne dabei Einbußen in der Dynamik zu haben. Ich spiele Pop, Funk, Hip Hop, Swing, akustische Cover, moderne Musik, Elektro.
Mein Becken wiegt ca. 1780 Gramm, es ist relativ trocken, nicht tot und trotzdem öffnet es einen umfangreiches Spektrum, sobald es gecrasht wird (kein trockener Gongsound). Einfach nur geil! Ich wollte nicht wahrhaben, dass so ein günstiges Becken die Vergleichsmodelle namenhafter Hersteller in den Schatten stellt oder mindestens gleich zieht.
Es ist für leise bis mittlere Lautstärken geeignet, dunkel im fundamentalen Klang gepaart mit feinen, zurückhaltenden und brillianten Tönen im Ping. Die Kuppe aktiviert den Sound des gesamten Beckens in einer Art Wash. Nur mit dem Teil des Sticks gespielt, der kurz vor der Spitze kommt, kann die Kuppe auch einen erdigen und klaren, aber nicht scharfen klang zu erzeugen, der sich vom restlichen Becken abhebt.
Es macht UNGLAUBLICH viel Spaß auf dem Ding rumzunudeln.
Dazu kommt noch die hammergeile Optik: dunkel, rau, fuchsige Töne. Wie eine Lava Landschaft.
Ein kleines Detail, was das Gesamtbild abrundet, war der Dreck am Becken aus dem Ofen und die mit Kreide aufgemalte Angabe in Gramm.
Andere Serien von Zultan sagen mir nicht so zu, aber von dieser Reihe gerne mehr!

Ps.: Ich vermute, es ist nichts für Metal oder härtere Gangarten. Höchstens als Crash, aber wer weiß, wie lange die Haltbarkeit ist.

One of the Best Sounding Rides I've ever Played
Jeyk 08.10.2020
Ok, so I'm gonna start off by saying that I would give this one 6 stars if it were possible. I have bought plenty of Zultan cymbals (and other brands) over the past couple of years and given most of them 5-star ratings on here, yet this one's a step or two above the rest. It's definitely the best sounding 20" ride I've ever played.

Firstly about the weight: this is a very thin cymbal. The one I got weighs only 1750 grams so it's bordering on paper thin. I also have the 22" version which I would actually categorize as a fairly sturdy medium thin as it weighs 2560 grams. I've noticed that this is actually pretty common with Zultan's thinner/jazzier rides - in the Dune series the 22" version also seems to be a weight class or two heavier than the 20" equivalent.

About the sound: despite the low weight this ride has a very nice stick definition that is in perfect balance with a beautiful wash. The sound character is dark and warm and just absolutely perfect to me. Obviously it's very responsive to accents as well due to the low weight and the crash sound is full but controlled. The bell sounds nice but isn't probably cutting enough for louder styles - this is not a negative thing but something to keep in mind anyway.

I cannot stress this enough: this cymbal sounds MUCH better than the sound samples on this site would suggest. Usually the Thomann samples are good for crashes and hats, but for some reason the recordings make even the most delicate rides sounds kinda harsh and brutal, at least to me.

As for the quality, my 20" is not quite as well made and aesthetically pleasing as my 22", but it doesn't matter to me at all. I bought it for the sound first and foremost and it has exceeded all my expectations. Provided this doesn't crack unexpectedly, the quality is good enough.

Conclusion: if you're looking for a beautiful light jazz ride, buy this one! If you're looking for a dark, dry, and jazzy ride for backbeat applications and amplified music, get the 22" version instead as it is slightly heavier and has even more stick definition + a more cutting bell. Or better yet, get them both like I did!

Sonido muy seco, con una campana decente. Lo he utilizado como crash y como segundo ride, y en ambos casos cumple con creces.
