The Benefits of Cympad Chromatics

Cympad Chromatics have become a favorite of many modern professional drummers because of the many benefits they provide.

Customized Visuals:

The visual appearance is the first thing that attracts drummers to Chromatics.

Drummers can easily choose a particular shade to match or contrast with their drum kit. They can employ uniform Chromatics colours or blend multiple colours.

Enhanced Cymbal Performance:

Cympad Chromatics are designed to offer superior support and suspension for the cymbals. With their enhanced sustain, they allow drummers to play the drum set in a much more musical and comfortable manner. When you feel more comfortable while playing, you can also play with greater intensity and passion. 

Cymbal Longevity:

Another major benefit of Cympad Chromatics is that they protect the cymbals. The washers balance the vibrations when the drummer strikes the cymbal. The force is distributed evenly throughout the cymbal, reducing stress on the cymbal. With reduced stress, there are less fractures and cracks on the cymbal. These foam washers can go a long way in protecting your cymbal as well as producing a better sound. 

Consistent Performance:

Cellular foam cymbal washers are more durable than felt washers. Foam cymbal washers also maintain their shape and size— providing a consistent performance every time.
