Drummer comments about Cympad
Jamie Miller / US
As far as I can tell, there hasn't been many products that can both improve the sound if cymbals as well as making them more durable. We drummers have pretty much had to deal with sticking a metal pie on a metal stand and bashing away. Cympads help focus the sound of the cymbal by trimming away some of the brashiness and making them more musical. I also used to break slot of cymbals and since i've been using cympads, i've broken one cymbal on a four month tour.
Juan Van Emmerloot / NL
"Der "Cympad" überzeugt sofort; eine einfache Lösung um die akustischen Klänge des ganzen Schlagzeugs beherrschen zu können!
Dort, wo man als Schlagzeuger nicht immer in der Lage war, die Schlagzeuge der Akustik, in der man spielt, anzupassen, gibt es nun endlich ein Produkt, wodurch man dasselbe mit Cymbals machen kann! Clinics, Workshops, live in kleinen Räumen…nie mehr wegen der physischen Spielweise Konzessionen machen! Ohne den "Cympad" gehe ich nie mehr raus!"
"De "Cympad" bewijst zich direct; een eenvoudige oplossing om de akoestische klanken van je gehele drumstel te beheersen! Daar waar we als drummer altijd in staat waren om drums aan te passen aan de akoestiek waarin je speelt, is er nu eindelijk een produkt die je in staat stelt hetzelfde te doen maar dan met cymbals! Clinics, workshops, live in kleine ruimten....nooit meer concessies doen omwille mijn fysieke manier van spelen! Zonder de "Cympad" ga ik de deur niet meer uit!!"

"Wether it's to reduce your big cymbals bigtime, or just to reduce your smallest splash just a little bit, with Cympad you will find the exact amount of mute you're looking for! Works especialy well in the studio."
Oscar Kraal... Anouk, Seven, Candy Dulfer
Stefan Schwarzmann / DE
"Since end of August 2007 I'm utilizing various Cympad products in the recording studio as well as during rehearsal. Especially in the recording studio I was able to achieve excellent sound results within the sustain and overtone balance of my cymbals.
In the rehearsal room, especially for those of you that have smaller ones, with the cympads you are able to protect the "wear and tear" of the entire band's ear drums without compromising sound quality at all.
I highly recommend for you to check it out!"
Raph Schuler / FR
"J'ai essayé les Cympads sur beaucoup de configurations et de cymbales différentes... le résultat est étonnant!! En live dans des clubs ou des petites salles, je peux garder toute l'intention dans la frappe sans que les cymbales prennent le dessus au niveau du volume. Un régal pour moi même, pour les musiciens autour de moi... ainsi que le public!! J'apprécie particulièrement les diamètres 80 et 70mm pour les petites salles: je les utilise sur mes crash Zildjian A Custom. Mes cymbales gardent leur brillance et sont parfaitement mixées au son de mon kit quand je joue aux fagots! Je diminue les diamètres lorsque je joue aux baguettes. Le diamètre 90mm est parfait pour la cymbale ride: il permet de "retenir" le son du dôme qui avait tendance à prendre le dessus! Je l'utilise également sur des crash de grands diamètres ce qui permet d'obtenir un son "moelleux"! Idéal pour le Pop-rock!! Le résultat est également magique en studio! Grâce aux différents diamètres des cympads, j'ai la possibilité de gérer entièrement le son de mes cymbales pour obtenir une homogénéité parfaite et ainsi utiliser de grandes cymbales même pour des titres "acoustiques"!! Pour résumer: En club on peut garder l'intention dans la frappe sans que les cymbales ne deviennent assourdissantes!!!
Cympad c'est la révolution!!!"
Jérémie Rouchaville / FR
"Au départ, j'étais sceptique...Certaines personnes me vantaient les mérites de Cympad, mais je ne pensais pas qu'ils avaient raison à ce point!!
Une fois la boîte reçue, je l'emmène avec moi sur la route pour un weekend de concerts. Je teste le 90mm sur mes crashs Sabian AAX Stage (16") et AAX Metal (18") qui sont les plus "génantes"; je rajoute un petit 50 mm sur la 18" car elle est assez aggressive et là, c'est le bluff complet. Mes collègues musiciens me font la remarque : "Waouaw c'est vraiment pas aggressif avec ça..", j'écoute, je teste, je me fais mon idée et effectivement la clareté ainsi que le côté scintillant des cymbales crashs ne sont pas altérés. Un vrai bonheur de pouvoir tabasser ses cymbales en caf conc, en club voire même dans des bars tout simples. Avant j'étais obligé de prendre des mouchoirs, de les gaffer symétriquement sous les cymbales, maintenant c'est de l'histoire ancienne.
Cympad c'est enfin une marque qui pense à ceux qui galèrent dans les clubs, caf conc....à ceux qui sont frustrés d'être sans arrêt obligés de freiner leur intensité, de gérer leur frappe dans l'optique de servir la qualité sonore (ce qui est mon cas). Ca fait plaisir!!Enfin!!"
Peter Svensson / SE
"CYMPAD really works great... although I play Bosphorus Cymbals, which I think are the best sounding cymbals on the market, the CYMPAD really made them even more personal!
The big pads will muffle my cymbals perfect (without tape damaging the metal - leaving ugly marks). It seems like I can "fine-tune" and make alredy great sounding cymbals sound even better without "killing them"!
A great idea, this invention!"
Shawn Johnson / US
"I tried the Cympads on a few cymbals i was having volume issues on. Cympad was a instant success. Now all my cymbals are at the same level making my kit sound even and controlled. I will be in the studio next weekend, and this product WILL be used!"
Christian "Léo" Leonhard / DE
"Dank den cympads kann ich endlich effektiv die Lautstärke der Becken dämpfen und das ohne klangverluste! Cympads, was für ne coole Sache!!"
Olivier Baldissera / FR
"J'ai pu tester le Cympad et quelle efficacité si on joue en club ou en répétition ! Il est en plus redoutable en studio lorsque la room est difficile surtout pour la ride qui a tendance quelquefois à s'emballer. Très intéressant aussi pour limiter un dôme qui perce trop dans un mix."
Michael Zagon / DE
"Wow, das ist echt cool, die Zeiten in denen Cymbals zugetapt wurden, sind dank Cympads endgültig vorbei. Kein Gig mehr ohne Cympads im Gepäck!! Check out my Cympad video on youtube:
Jürgen Stiehle / DE
"Die Cympads machen echt einen guten Jobs, vor allem in Clubs ist unser Tontechniker sehr dankbar über die Pads! Gute Sache!"
Hermann Kock / DE
"Verwende Cympads um meine 20.. und 22.. China Cymbals angenehm klingen zu lassen. Ausserdem kann ein dünnes Sizzle-Jazz Ride mit Cympads positiv beeinflusst werden.Ganz hervorragendes Prudukt!!"
Thomas Zimmermann / DE
"Hey, checkt das aus! Wieso ist nicht schon lang jemand darauf gekommen? - Einfach genial & genial einfach: Die Cympads! Seit kurzem verwende ich diese Teile und bin wirklich begeistert. Sie sind nicht nur ein praktisches Tool im Unterrricht (vor allem bei Gruppen ;-), sondern auch bei kleineren Gigs und unplugged-Gigs hilfreich. Mich laden sie auch zum Experimentieren ein, um Cymbalsounds einfach so zu "modifizieren". Ganz nebenbei sehen die "Cym-Washers" dann auch noch ganz gut aus. Vielen Dank an Reto Hirschi von Cympad"
Sven Kosakowski / DE
"Ich benutze die Cympads schon seit jahren, habe mir direkt ein ganzes Sortiment bestellt und möchte sie nicht mehr missen.
Ich bewege mich viel im Kontext elektronischer Musik, und kann die Cympads dabei einfach bestens brauchen. Ich bekomme die Klangfarben und das Sustain, das mir vorschwebt, ohne mir teure Effektbecken kaufen zu müssen...
Cympads habe ich immer dabei!"
Tino Calmbach / DE
"Now that I've used Cympads in some Live situations I can really verify that these products really do a great job. All the advertising is true, you can bring down the volume to any needed extend without losing the sound quality!!! Amazing products...."
Christian Schönholzer / CH
"Brauche die Dinger schon seit längerem. Nix Cymbal laut. Cympad: DIE ERFINDUNG seit dem Rad..."
Gerald Kloos / DE
"Erfreulicherweise werde ich von dem tollen Schweizer Drummer Reto Hirschi mit seinen neuen Produkten unterstützt. Reto hat ein geradezu geniales Konzept ersonnen, mit welchem erstmalig in der Geschichte des Drumming Cymbals in ihrer Lautstärke reduziert werden können. Erfreulicherweise aber ohne diese im Klangspektrum zu verschlechtern: die CYMPADS!"
Charles Demelotte / FR
"Pour en avoir essayé au Shop, j'ai été conquis. Un peu sur la défensive quand le commercial m'a présenté ce produit sorti de derrière les fagots, on se de dit "c'est quoi encore cette invention à la c... ?" et puis après avoir glissé une galette sous une cymbale on se rend bien compte de l'efficacité. Pour ce qui est des "Cympad washer" qui remplacent les feutres, je ne jure que par ça pour mon utilisation perso. J'ai vraiment envie de suivre ce produit au catalogue du Yéti ! Je pense que d'ici qq années on considèrera le Cympad comme un standard. N'hésitez pas à les tester, sans préjugés, histoire de vous faire une idée de l'utilité.
A la revoyure !"
Tobias Hirner / DE
"Cympads reparieren gescheiterte Beziehungen zwischen Drummer und
Mischer. Seit ich mit Cympads spiele, mag mich unser Mischer auch wieder in den
kleinen Clubs und kann die Overheads auf der PA lassen. Ein Muss für
jeden Clubgig."
Mathieu Bonaddio / FR
"Cympad est un produit indispensable que j'emporte partout, il me permet d'athénuer la résonnance de mes cymbales tout en gardant leurs sonoritées.
Grace a cympad, je peux jouer sur de petites scènes en gardant ma frappe habituelle, je suis enfin à l'aise en club et
le rendu sur scène est beaucoup plus agréable pour tous!!!!"
Ryan Carman / US
"The Cympad is my new favorite road and studio companion. They allow me to control my big bad Paiste Giant Beats. I have had great success in the studio and on stage live. The different sizes allow many options of overtone. Love this product!!....and recommend them to all drummers, engineers and producers!"
