Frequently Asked Questions
It refers to Paiste's manufacturing process that alters the cymbal’s surface to subtly change its tonal characteristics, generally resulting in a warmer, more complex sound.
Primarily cosmetic, but the darker finish does slightly reduce the cymbal’s brilliance and can soften high frequencies a touch.
The 900 series is a more budget-friendly option; Signature and RS offer greater complexity, sustain, and refinement, but at a premium price.
