Hey guys! I'm in the market for a new set of cymbals. Here is my list below:
Sabian 10" AAX Air Splash
Sabian 12" AAX Mini Holy China
Sabian 14" Freq HH
Sabian 16" AAX X-polsion Fast Crash
Sabian 17" Artisan Crash
Sabian 18" HHX Evolution crash
Wuhan 22" China
Sabian 22" Legacy Heavy Ride
I want to know your guys' thoughts here because as you can see, there is quite a variety of tone color here, which is what I want. I play a lot of progressive rock, infusing electronic music elements, and jazz elements (not necessarily playing straight jazz or EDM, hence, infuse). Do you guys think this list of cymbals is a good combination and can work well together? Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to go to a shop and listen to cymbals, so I've just looked at several different videos of these cymbals, taking note in my head of their sound. In my head, I think these would sound interesting together. Also, I will be using these to record in a home studio.
