Information

Essential Information About Sabian FRX Cymbals
• Designed for "too loud" environments : ideal when traditional cymbals overpower the mix (bars, churches, theaters, schools, ceremonies).
• High-end B20 alloy : a base comparable to the spirit of professional series like HHX/AAX, with a "normal" cymbal response.
• Control of frequencies perceived as aggressive : targeted reduction of the most intrusive lows and highs for the ear.
• Clear attack, short response : you can play without holding back, with a more controlled sustain than a traditional cymbal.

Historical Context and Positioning in the Range

The FRX series was designed to address a modern reality: more and more drummers play in venues where dynamics must be controlled without sacrificing the feel under the stick or the character of a true B20 alloy cymbal. Positioned as a "mix-friendly" alternative, the FRX clearly stands apart from a purely silent approach: the goal is not to mute the sound but to make it easier to integrate into acoustic environments, softly amplified settings, or those with strict volume constraints.

Who This Drum/Instrument Is For

The FRX cymbals are aimed at intermediate to expert drummers seeking a natural playing experience without technical adaptation, while reducing overall sound impact. They are particularly suited for styles where clarity and control are paramount: acoustic pop, accessible modern jazz, worship, variety, theater, light funk, small club sessions, and music school rehearsals. They are also relevant for musicians wanting to rethink their sound and explore more "airy" aesthetics without giving up a true cymbal attack.

Questions frequently asked

Is the Sabian FRX1906 suitable for small venues and controlled-volume rehearsals?

The FRX design reduces certain frequencies through distributed perforations on the cymbal to limit overall sound impact. This model is intended for settings such as bars, theaters, music schools, or wedding celebrations. The attack remains clear with a short response.

What sound does a 19-inch FRX crash produce?

Its 19-inch diameter, B20 alloy, and extra thin weight favor a dark tone rich in harmonics. The sustain is reduced compared to a traditional cymbal, with the note stopping more quickly.

Is the 19" FRX crash thin?

This crash features an extra thin weight, combined with a small bell and an immediate stick response.

What is the purpose of the holes on this Sabian FRX cymbal?

The perforations in various places affect sound diffusion and reduce certain bass and treble frequencies considered too prominent. They help shorten the sustain while preserving a striking feel close to a traditional cymbal.
