Meinl Byzance Dual 14” Multi-Trash Cymbal

The Meinl Byzance Dual 14” Multi-Trash Cymbal is a fantastic little cymbal that creates a simmering, energetic bloom of sound that belies its size. “Multi-trash” is a perfect term for this cymbal - it has a very distinctive, dry and trashy sound, yet is extremely versatile and seems to suit nearly every situation. 

Meinl has taken its Byzance Extra Dry properties and taken them a step further, resulting in the Meinl  Byzance Dual series, a range of cymbals with a refreshingly different sound and look. This trash features a dual-textured surface;  a raw, hand-hammered middle and a brilliant fully lathed bow and edge, a combo that allows the cymbal to open up from a dry, tight sonic ball and follow a curve into a full and shimmering, brilliance. Of course, its drilled hole pattern creates a deliciously trashy flavour.

14” is the perfect size for a cymbal of this type. Small enough to be used as a splash, large enough for crashing effects, and ideal to stack with other cymbals to create some amazing effects. You could even swap it out for your top hi-hat cymbal to create some trashy grooves. This is a great little cymbal with heaps of potential.
