Hi.

Im locking for a cymbal that has some nails drilled in it… for a nice jazz, pop-ballad kind of long sizzling sound. Dont know the right word.

Can I get some help to find one? I do not have any to sample either… If I had samples I could fix it…

Thanx

Sizzle cymbals typically have rivets installed, although anything that can rattle might be used. The main requirement is that the rattles not have excessive mass, since that takes energy from the cymbal and shortens the sound duration.

You might see if there’s something here that meets your needs:

Will try it later. A lot of great sounds.

To me, that sounds a lot like filtered white noise, rather than a sizzle cymbal hit, but I don’t know exactly what you’re looking for. Layering it with a hit might work, but it could be tricky to get the levels and timing right.

You’ll probably find something there that will do the trick.
