19" HHX RED LIGHT CRASH

19" HHX Red Light Crash

The 19" HHX Red Light Crash captures a buttery feel with a smooth, musical attack that responds predictably across dynamic playing. Developed in collaboration with drummer Todd Sucherman, this crash merges the dark complexity of Artisan cymbals with the clarity and cut of AAX, making it equally effective in the studio and live setting. The smoky, rich tone paired with crystalline high-end shimmer cuts through overheads and close-mic setups without losing definition.

Tone & Character

This crash blends dark, complex fundamentals with bright, articulate shimmer—a tonal signature engineered specifically for recording environments where definition matters. The combination of warmth and cut allows the cymbal to sit naturally in a mix while maintaining musical presence across dynamic ranges.

Design & Voicing

The 19" size is uniquely voiced as part of the four-piece HHX Red Light crash lineup, with each size designed to interact musically when stacked or used together. The smooth attack and responsive character make every strike feel intentional, whether capturing delicate dynamics or aggressive accents in your session.
