Description

Overview

Overview

The Paiste Color Sound 900 CS Purple Heavy Ride is a premium, professional-grade cymbal designed for drummers who demand a powerful, cutting sound with a distinct, heavy character. Part of the renowned Color Sound 900 series, this 20-inch ride cymbal delivers a brilliant, sharp, and powerful tone, making it an essential tool for loud, high-energy musical performances. It is engineered for professional musicians, session players, and serious studio producers who require a ride that cuts through a dense mix without sacrificing warmth.

What sets the Purple Heavy apart is the unique Color Sound 900 coating. While sharing the core sonic DNA of the 900 Series, this specific coating imparts a slightly drier sound and shortens the sustain marginally, resulting in a more focused and immediate attack. This balance of massive bell presence and controlled wash makes it exceptionally versatile, perfect for both driving rock anthems and complex jazz arrangements where definition is key.

Musicians will want this cymbal for its heavy feel and wide frequency range. It provides a pronounced, bright ping over a controlled, warm wash, ensuring that the ride pattern remains articulate and commanding, even in the loudest live settings. This cymbal is built to be a powerful, cutting centerpiece of any drum kit.
