General

The world-famous Meinl Generation X series has been a hotbed for creativity and experimentation since it's inception. Incorporate a Gen X cymbal into your setup, and it will add a completely new twist to your sound without fail. If you want a ready-made set with a number of unique, experimental crashes, then take a look at this Thomas Lang signature cymbal set. The GX-TB14/17/18 cymbal set consists of a 17-inch Kompressor Crash, and 18-inch Kinetik Crash and a free 14-inch Thomas Lang Filter China. These cymbals are made of Meinl's complex FX9 alloy and manufactured through a computerised process to ensure the best sound.

Meinl Generation X GX-14/17/18

These cymbals are pretty eccentric. The Kinetic and Kompressor crashes are 'dB compressed', which means that they have a less aggressive volume than your average crash, making them especially well suited for studios and rehearsal spaces. Besides that, they have a unique, quasi-electronic sound. Thanks to the rippled edge, they have a relatively short sustain and a sharp, aggressive attack, while the wash has a white noise effect to it. These cymbals are especially well suited for use in fast, electronic styles of music. Furthermore, the included 14-inch Filter China has similar characteristics to the crashes, as it is less aggressive than your average china. If you're looking for innovation, then take a look at the Thomas Lang cymbal set with its refreshing, balanced and modern drum sounds.
