Featuring the sounds of these cymbals:
The Meinl Artist Concept Model Cymbals
Designed by Luke Holland, Matt Garstka, Thomas Lang and Anika Nilles
Matt Garstka - 18"/16" Fat Stack

Thomas Lang - 18"/18" Super-Stack

Plus the Meinl Pure Alloy Cymbal Line - Clarity first
The Pure Alloy cymbals are all made in Germany. They have a traditional finish and production is done by computerized hammering (Pressure Point Technology is another way Meinl produces cymbals). The company promises it will extend this line with more cymbals soon.
The clarity of the cymbals is rather new to the Meinl cymbal lines. With a more 'regular' sound the cymbals can be used in any style of music easily. Watch the videos to hear the definition of the cymbals, and the live on-site sounds at the NAMM Show in the video below.
