Paiste announces the expansion of its ‘[[Paiste Dimensions#Dimensions|Dimensions]]’ series by two models, the [[Paiste Medium Heavy Crash|Medium Heavy Crash]] and the [[Paiste Power China|Power China]]. The crash adds an important new weight to the existing crash cymbal program. The Power China features a traditional style bell and an innovative edge design, which is turned downward instead of upward as in the Novo China, which the company received a patent for previously. ‘Dimensions’ are professional level, multi functional cymbals with extremely versatile sound and function. They are made from CuSn8 Bronze in traditional fashion by hand hammering and hand lathing. Since their introduction in 1999, reactions indicate wide acceptance among players of diverse music styles. ‘Dimensions’ have been reviewed by most important worldwide percussion magazines and have received very positive to passionate verdicts.

In an odd development, Paiste adds several uneven sizes to its cymbal program in response to recent trends and changes in musical tastes among drummers and percussionists. According to Erik Paiste, “over the decades we have seen the popularity of uneven sizes undergo periodic changes. Currently there is a strong renewed interest in uneven crashes, especially in the 19” size. Our job is to give drummers and percussionists what they need, so that’s what we did. This also gave us the opportunity to bring back some classic cymbal sounds.” With this move, 19” models are added to the [[Paiste Dimensions#Dimensions|Dimensions]] series in the [[Paiste Medium Thin Crash|Medium Thin]], [[Paiste Power Crash|Power]] and [[Paiste Medium Heavy Crash|Medium Heavy]] (also in 17”) crash weights. [[Paiste Dimensions#Dimensions|Dimensions]] are professional level, multi functional cymbals with extremely versatile sound and function.<br><br>

In addition to the odd size expansion of the Dimensions series, Paiste adds new sizes to two of its [[Paiste Dimensions#Dimensions|Dimensions]] models. The [[Paiste Dry Ride|Dry Ride]], a cymbal that attained extreme popularity due to its combination of dry character, intricate harmonics, and unusually wide dynamics, is now available in an 18” version. The [[Paiste Thin China|Thin China]] gains a 14” size, a fast, percussive version of the dark, complex [[Paiste Thin China|Thin China]] models already available. “With these additions, [[Paiste Dimensions#Dimensions|Dimensions]] are approaching the vast sound spectrum and functional diversity of our [[Paiste Signature#Signature|Signature]] series,” comments Erik Paiste. “As a result, about one in every two of our top artists now chooses to incorporate [[Paiste Dimensions#Dimensions|Dimensions]] into their cymbal sets, a fact we soon plan to feature prominently in our marketing efforts.” [[Paiste Dimensions#Dimensions|Dimensions]] are professional level, multi functional cymbals with extremely versatile sound and function. They are made from CuSn8 Bronze in traditional fashion by hand hammering and hand lathing. Since their introduction in 1999, reactions indicate wide acceptance among players of diverse music styles.
