Frequently Asked Questions

While they *can* be used in orchestral settings, their bright and cutting sound is best suited for louder passages; they won't offer the nuanced wash of a traditional orchestral cymbal.
The lacquer will dampen the initial brightness slightly, and regular cleaning is essential to prevent oxidation which can further alter the tone and appearance – it’s a trade-off for the budget price.
Copper 'pl' cymbals have a brighter, more focused sound than bronze, which contains tin; bronze offers more complexity and sustain but costs considerably more.
