Looking for a Particular Cymbal Sound (take a listen)
Hi DCrs,
I have been looking for a particular cymbal sound, dark wash with sizzle. Closest I have found is the cymbal used periodically in the original recording of Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight" See vid below---it is the cymbal hit to intro the song, then repeated periodically throughout.
(Apologies for the sugary sweet pictures in the video, this is the first I came upon with the studio version of the song. Also, understood that there may be certain studio tweaking of the original cymbal sound, but just looking for what cymbal underlies the sound).
If anyone can give a good guess, or even knows what cymbal was actually used in the recording, thanks in advance!
