24" STRATUS DRY RIDE

24" STRATUS DRY RIDE

The 24" STRATUS DRY RIDE delivers a wide, low-pitched wash with remarkable control despite its size. The lightweight design keeps the cymbal responsive and expressive under stick, making it ideal for recording sessions where you need substantial presence without overwhelming sustain. This is a modern dry ride engineered for dark tone and articulate definition that cuts through dense arrangements.

Tone & Sonic Character

Built from B20 bronze with STRATUS high impact hammering, this cymbal produces a lower-register voice that sits well in dense mixes. The hammered bell delivers clear articulation and cut, allowing the ride to function effectively as both a timekeeping voice and a textural element without bleeding excessively into surrounding instruments—a critical asset when tracking drums to multitrack.

Build & Responsiveness

At approximately 2874g, the medium-light weight classification keeps this 24" cymbal nimble and expressive despite its large diameter. The combination of size and restrained weight means quick response to dynamic playing while maintaining the deep, controlled wash characteristic of a quality dry ride—essential for capturing detail and nuance across multiple takes.
