Drum Cymbal Sabian 18" AAX OMNI

The Sabian 18" AAX OMNI is a unique crash-ride cymbal that combines elements of both types for maximum versatility. It is part of the AAX series, a modern interpretation of the iconic AA line, featuring extended impact, bright attack and deep sustain. The AAX series is designed for musicians who need clarity and expressiveness in any environment - from rehearsal to the big stage. The OMNI model was developed in collaboration with legendary drummer Jojo Mayer, which gave it a unique character. According to the musician himself, this is a cymbal with which you can play an entire gig and not feel the need for another. It is not just a crash and not quite a ride – it is something new. OMNI opens up a completely new approach to cymbal playing, providing an incredibly wide range of sonic possibilities. The middle of the cymbal has a medium thickness and a shiny finish (Brilliant), while the edge is ultra-thin with a natural finish, which provides not only a spectacular appearance, but also deep musical expression. It is the ideal solution for the drummer who seeks to control the sound in any volume range – from delicate playing to aggressive drive. Made of B20 bronze, the cymbal provides a rich, contrasting sound and perfectly adapts to any musical style, from jazz to hard rock. Sabian AAX OMNI was awarded the prestigious MIPA award at the international Musikmesse exhibition in 2011, which underlines its high quality and innovative approach.
