SABIAN 10″ FRX Splash Cymbal
The FRX 10″ Splash delivers super-quick, pristine response that cuts through without overwhelming the mix. Crafted from professional-grade B20 Bronze, this cymbal offers complex, versatile tone designed for controlled recording environments where traditional cymbals demand too much headroom. Its compact size and frequency-reduced design make it an essential tool for modern studio setups that require articulation without excess wash—ideal for capturing clean drum takes and maintaining clarity across the frequency spectrum in overdubs.
Recording Tone & Sonic Character
This splash produces a modern, dark character with the frequency-reduced properties that prevent unwanted overtones from muddying your mix. The array of perforations near the bell strategically dampens resonance, ensuring the cymbal sits perfectly in recorded contexts without competing with drums, vocals, or other tracked elements when tracked to separate channels or bleed-minimized setups.
Construction & Specifications
At 10 inches and weighing approximately 235–258 grams, the FRX Splash balances quick response with enough mass to produce articulate definition across multiple takes. The B20 Bronze alloy ensures professional tonal complexity and consistency across dynamic playing, making this a serious working cymbal for session tracking and production rather than a practice-only instrument.
