'''Review:''' "Paiste is famous for its Flat Rides, and this new Alpha model is a worthy addition to that heritage. It's a subdued cymbal, producing a very clean stick sound with no build-up. It offered distinctly different tonalities when played near the hole, at mid-shoulder, or near the edge. I did notice an underlying "hum"when I rode the cymbal for an extended period of time, but I doubt that that hum would be heard in a live situation."<br>
