Review: "The versatile Dry Crisp Ride offers characteristics of several different cymbals. It has fairly wide lathing but moderate hammering, and features a small domed bell. Consequently, it projects the shimmery, glassy quality of a flat ride, but also produces some very nice overtones from the small bell. It has some spread and wash—but they're very musical and pleasant. Paiste says that Joe Porcaro described this one as "the pretty ride," and that's the feeling it gave me."
