Zildjian A-Avedis collection-1

Ho iniziato a suonare la linea “A” della Zildjian circa 3 anni fa ed è stato subito amore. Mi resi immediatamente conto che il sound che ho sempre ascoltato nei miei dischi preferiti, quelli di una volta, fosse proprio il sound della serie “A”. La mia prima esperienza con questi piatti risale a qualche anno fa, con la vecchia serie “A” anche se la Zildjian aveva già immesso nel mercato, da poco tempo, la nuova serie “A-Avedis”. Poco fa mi decisi di provarla ed andai ad acquistare un Ride, il 21” per la precisione. Un gesto che mi convinse immediatamente al cambio.

The Direct Source Pickup (DSP) is a two-piece system consisting of the sensor (attaches to the cymbal) and LED light module and preamp section (attaches to the cymbal stand / Hi-Hat stand). The DSP captures the pure acoustic sound of a Zildjian Buffed Bronze cymbal while eliminating feedback, crosstalk, and phasing associated with microphones. They are perfect for live performances and practice. It can also be used with traditional acoustic cymbals with the slight modification of adding a rivet hole near the bell of the cymbal.
