SABIAN Cymbals Set-Up Builder
Feb 23rd
I guess this has been around for a while, but I only recently discovered it and I’d wish I knew about it when I was in the market to buy a new Drum Set with Cymbals.
It’s the Cymbal Set-Up Builder by SABIAN.
All you need to do is:
- Create your set-up from scratch OR
- Choose your favourite Sabian artist template, OR
- Choose a Genre template.
Then you can move things around, edit what drums you prefer and best of all, you can save your Sabian Cymbal Set-up and play the kit so you can find out what each cymbal sounds like. The only downside with More >

The Popular Syndrome Of Shrinking The Drum Set And Cymbals
Jan 15th
Today I came across and interesting thread about why modern drummers are shrinking their drum set and cymbals.
It seems that there is a common trend these days to reduce the number of drums and cymbals on the drum set. This is particularly interesting given that during the 70′s and particularly 80′s, many rockstar drummers had massive drum sets that sometimes seemed a little over the top. This trend was seen especially among heavy metal and hard rock drummers such as Van Halen, Neil Peart, and Simon Phillips and I suppose even Phil Collins from Genesis was up there.
