Cool and cheap way to enhance your cymbal sound

Neptunian, 28.08.2018

I use this Cymbal Bacon with my ride cymbals, and have often found that its effect - namely, shortening the decay time while increasing the sizzliness - is exactly what is needed for studio work. It is also much cheaper and more conveniently mounted and dismounted than rivets, to say nothing of keeping the cymbal intact. Keep in mind that you may have to change your cymbal mounting angle if this turns out to drop exactly over the spot where you typically hit your cymbal.

maybe a bit overpriced but ...

ztuzgg, 29.05.2017

it it much better solution than using the good old bath chain. But again it all comes down to cymbal vs chain weight. If your cymbal is too light , for example 1600 - 1800 g , this chain could kill its sustain (dampen it ) to much , but again you probably wouldn't use a sizzle on that thin cymbal or you could try bath chain that is usualy lighter.
I bought it to change a sound on my rather pingy jazz ride that was missing a littles bit of that dirty and nice sustain you get from thinner cymbals. It probably is not a substitute for rivets , which are ligher and sit near the edge of the cymbal, whereas this chain lies along the whole cymbal, so rivets would again give you a different sound, but this way you don't have to drill your cymbal and possibly regret after.
