I've been itching to get my flat ride into my setup for some gigs I've been doing recently, but I don't want to drop any of the cymbals currently in my setup. If I had the time and space (and a roadie), I'd probably have something approaching Paul Wertico's Metheny-era cymbal setup, but I'm nowhere near there yet.

It's a start, tho:



We'll see how it works Friday. The keyboard player (leader on the gig) really likes having wind chimes on his drummer's kit, so I'll have to figure out something for that.

Nice! You can never have too many cymbals.

Just ask Mike. Devilish

What ride is that (the flat)?

20" Paiste Traditionals Light Flat Ride (2 rivets).

The sax player has been bringing his flute for some of the tunes, and another flute player has been sitting in, so I thought it'd be a good excuse to whip out the flat.

I have had nothing but stellar experiences with Traditionals light instruments. Must be a beautiful cymbal.

It's a very clean, articulate sound. Check out Danny Gottlieb on the early Pat Metheny albums, and just about anything by Roy Haynes, starting with Chick Corea's "Now He Sings, Now He Sobs" album. Plus, I think Airto used one on the early Return To Forever albums. I love it backing flute players, or in a piano trio, and it's great for bossa novas.
