A universal set solves that. The three voices are voiced as a group, so the crash and ride sit in a coherent relationship and the hats sit underneath both. For a first kit, a school room or a rehearsal backline, that consistency matters more than any single cymbal being remarkable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 101 line is Paiste's brass tier, made from sheet brass rather than the bronze alloys used further up the range. Brass gives a bright, direct, fast-decaying sound with less complexity than bronze, which is exactly right where the kit is being played hard by a student or lives in a rehearsal room. The 14 inch hats are crisp and tight, the 16 inch crash is quick and cutting, and the 20 inch ride gives a clear stick definition with a controlled wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaiste\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e101 Brass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSet contents\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 inch hi-hats, 16 inch crash, 20 inch ride\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAlloy\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHi-hats\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 inch, pair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCrash\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRide\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBest for\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFirst kit, school room, rehearsal backline\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Comes in the Paiste 101 Universal Set?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe set contains four cymbals: a pair of 14 inch hi-hats, a 16 inch crash and a 20 inch ride.

Bronze alloys, used in Paiste's higher series, produce a richer and more complex tone with longer sustain, at a correspondingly higher position in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Paiste\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaiste has made cymbals and gongs in Switzerland and Germany since 1906, and is one of a very small number of manufacturers producing a complete cymbal range from entry brass through professional bronze. The company is known for consistency between individual cymbals of the same model, which is exactly what matters when the instrument is a matched set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat cymbals are included in this set?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pair of 14 inch hi-hats, a 16 inch crash and a 20 inch ride, four cymbals in total.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs this set suitable for a beginner?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
