WHAT IS THE

SOUND LAB?

FOUNDED IN 1983 BY ARMAND ZILDJIAN, the Zildjian Sound Lab is creative inspiration and state-of-the-art technology

where highly skilled craftsmen work closely with the world’s top players to produce cutting-edge innovations in cymbal

design. The process begins with the secret Zildjian alloy formulated 390 years ago. Using processes refined over centuries

as well as modern cymbal making techniques, the Sound Lab designs and develops classic and modern cymbal lines that

are played by the greatest drummers throughout the world. The Sound Lab’s meticulous attention to every detail of cymbal

making doesn’t end with the shaping, hammering, and lathing of metal. The finest technicians in the world sound test every

cymbal in the Lab as well as on the road and in studios with artists to ensure the quality and precision of Zildjian’s distinctive

sound palette. These concentrated R&D efforts have culminated in the development of the company’s most sought after

cymbal lines throughout the years and continue to fuel the development of each new generation of innovative sounds.

CYMBAL ANATOMY

1 PROFILEDegree of curvature from the bell to the edge. The profile of a cymbal affects its pitch and overtones. Higher profile cymbals will be higher in pitch and have fewer overtones. Flatter profile cymbals will be lower in pitch and have more overtones.

2 TAPERDegree to which the cymbal changes in thickness from the bell to the edge. The design of the taper will contribute to the overall sustain and articulation of the cymbal.

3 BELLThe raised area in the center of the cymbal. The bell or “cup” determines the amount of overtones and sound projected by a cymbal. A larger bell will produce more overtones and sustain, providing longer, full-bodied sound. A smaller bell will produce less overtones and sustain, providing more articulation.

4 RIDE AREAThe area between the edge of the cymbal and the bell. Sound from this area does not “open up” immediately when struck, making it easier to produce a more pronounced rhythm or “ride pattern.”

5 EDGE/CRASH AREAThe outer edge of the cymbal that responds the fastest. Used by drummers to produce an instant crash response and to produce the warmest sound when played with soft mallets for a suspended cymbal effect.
