    Exclamation Ring in Cymbals

    I have a crash that, after it stops resonating, will be followed by a very high pitch ringing. It's very annoying. Does anyone else have this happen? Is it just a bad cymbal or is there anything I can do.

    My ride does that but i just put duck tape on it and its fine now, i dont know if it will work so good with a crash may take some of that crash.. sound out of it, but u can always try

    depends where you put it...

    I tried the duct tape thing out...best thing to do is trash it (or take it back) and move on...at least in my case...hopefully you will find a cheaper alternative

    I don't know if I could take it back but because it's been awhile since I bought it. I guess I'll try to sell it and buy a new one.

    Yeah it happens. A good way to prevent this is (as it always is) Duct Tape. However too much tape takes the resonance out of the cymbal.

    oh yea..something i just thought of too..be aware of how your studio, bedroom, etc. (wherever ur drums are) be sure of how the walls and objects in that room react to sound..this may play a little part in it in some cases

    yeah, Lucid is right...i have just noticed that my 17" A Custom crash rings like hell in my basement.....and it never did before...but, i just moved recently, so this is a new basement, lol...but yeah, the room you are playing in has a pretty big effect on your sound.
    Word to the wise : don't mess with the drummer.
