The Xist Dry Dark is a versatile, modular cymbal lineup that bridges the gap between acoustic and electric, organic and electronic. It exhibits a pointed attack, dark overtones, and quick decay, while maintaining a soft and wobbly feel. These cymbals have a wide dynamic range and produce dark tones that won't overpower other instruments. When combined, they create unique percussive sounds with a modern and synthetic edge. They are perfect for a variety of musical styles, including traditional jazz, synth-based music, and modern progressive jazz.

Reviews
"13" hi-hat looks quite powerful for this size. It delivers a defined attack, which despite the dark and compact sound character. If you are looking for a large separation in terms of frequency between a very deep bass drum, robust snare drum and short-sounding hi-hat, you could find it here. The 13" hi-hat has the necessary presence and is also full enough to cut a good figure as an overall dark, dry sounding main hi-hat." -Â Ralf Mikolajczak
"Dark, trashy, nice "chick" and definition. A no brainer for jazz and contemporary hip hop / electronic music. Records well." -Â F. Sta
"The 13" Xist Dry Dark Hats have really good response and a smoky, deep sound. So if you are looking for a fast hi-hat that sounds deeper and is therefore well suited for recording situations, you should definitely try them." -Â Max Gebhardt
"This is a truly masterpiece. A beautiful dark and dry sound, with tons of articulation, a buttery chick-sound when played with foot and an unexpected bright sound when played opened (due to the 13 inch diameter). Also is a beautiful looking hihat." -Â M. Ds
