Are you sure that's not just the air pressure difference? Cymbals often have a shape with many concentric ripples, so you might need multiple holes to equalize the air pressure between each ripple. Wringing only works with extremely flat surfaces, and it works even in vacuum.
- defterGoose 7y agoYep, admit I was a little taken aback after the drilled holes explanation. This seems correct, as no practically priced cymbal could be so precisely made.
- emmelaich 7y agoI don't think they need to be precise; any reduction in the natural vibration can be detrimental to the sound. They never get "stuck" together, however, imnsho.
- defterGoose 7y agoYeah, I was saying that getting the surfaces to adhere sans vacuum seems unlikely for such an imprecise object
