A Hack for Snare Gate and Cymbal Sizzle
The single Chain Gate from Stack Ring Percussion provides an easy and effective way to achieve both a gated effect on your snare drum and classic cymbal sizzle response atop your ride — all with the same tool. Simply hook the loop of the Chain Gate over your tension rod or cymbal felt, and the brass chain link gets to work. Drummers at Sweetwater love how the natural decay of the snare head is immediately reined in while the complex wash of cymbals is extended, just like a traditional sizzle chain. Whether you're fine-tuning the response of your backbeat or chasing a vintage jazz bronze tone, the Stack Ring Percussion Chain Gate is sure to make a welcome addition to your kit.
