Hammerax Effects Cymbals review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

Hammerax Effects Cymbals offer a wild sonic experience with their unconventional designs, bringing a unique flair to any drum setup. While the range showcases intriguing sounds and robust construction, some effects may be too avant-garde for traditionalists. The aggressive tones of models like the Bash are particularly notable, effectively slicing through dense mixes. However, players seeking classic cymbal sounds might find the eccentricities overwhelming. Overall, these cymbals are a bold choice for those ready to experiment, but they may alienate purists looking for familiar tones.
