'''Sabian's Description:''' [[Sabian Crossover_Ride#Vault|<<< - >>>]]<br>
'''Review''': "The sound wizards at Sabian have introduced the Vault Crossover Ride, an all-new 21-inch versatile cymbal featuring a modern jazz design that is intended to be responsive yet controllable.

Combining vintage darkness and modern response concepts, the Crossover Ride is a medium-thin model with a medium-size bell, plus lathing and hammering combinations on its top and bottom surfaces.

The tone is said to be warm, semi-dark and very musical, while the ability to ride and crash with total stick articulation means even the most complex sticking patterns can be played - and heard - at all times. The single-line lathing on its top surface even gives this model a look that hints at its sound: darkness and brightness combined to create a rich tonal color in a cymbal one can ride, accent, and crash in virtually any style of music. <br>

		+	'''Review:''' "Sabian’s Crossover ride is a unique piece of B20 bronze that has some light lathing and a distressed look on top, with a clean machine-lathed underside. Sabian claims that this cymbal can function as a crash and as a ride, and that it can “crossover” musical styles very successfully. Playing swing time with an acorn-beaded stick sounded convincing in a small-group jazz setting, but in some rooms this cymbal produced a gong-like overtone. There isn’t much time wasted looking for a sweet spot, as striking with the tip anywhere around the bow of the cymbal produced a consistent sound.
		+
		+	Switching to a bigger stick with a round tip produced a bolder, more articulate sound, making the Crossover ride more useful in amplified music. The bell is on the small side, which makes its sound a little shrill in an acoustic setting but allows it to cut just right in moderately loud situations.
		+
		+	As a crash, this cymbal delivers a sizeable but not overwhelmingly dark sound that works great for accents in soft and loud jazz contexts, as well as when bashing it home in medium- to high-volume rock songs. Playing the Crossover with mallets produces dark swells with a warm but glassy decay.
