Infuse Your Kit with Unique Stack Tones
Expand the sonic potential of your cymbal setup with Paiste’s unique PST X Swiss Flanger stack cymbals. Based on Paiste’s dynamically versatile PST X formula of MS63 Brass, aluminum, and 2002 Bronze, this FX cymbal stack is primed for instant integration into your kit. Both the medium-thin top and thin bottom cymbals in this set feature hole cutouts of varying sizes to create a trashy disposition that can be seasoned to taste by adjusting its tightness. When left more open, the PST X Swiss Flanger stack cymbals exude a shattering crash effect with a noisy wash. Tighten them down, and you’ve instantly got trash hats on tap — a dual threat that veteran timekeepers at Sweetwater are excited to have access to! Imbued with a lively intensity and short sustain, the PST X Swiss Flanger stack cymbals gift drummers of all styles a memorable cymbal tone for blown-out snare-like beats, noisy accents, and so much more.
Paiste PST X: FX for every kit
Initially launched in 2015, Paiste’s PST X Series ushers quality FX cymbal experimentation into kit configurations with superb accessibility. These cymbals use an alloy of MS63 Brass, aluminum, and CuSn8 Bronze — or “2002 Bronze” — to lay the perfect sonic foundation for FX cymbal applications and are revered for the formula’s genre- and dynamic-level fluidity. The noisy, trashy explosiveness of PST Xs is complemented by silky surface finishing and warm, pure-sounding bell tones, making them an ideal addition for a wide range of music styles. From experimental jazz-fusion to the high impact of metal and more, there’s sure to be a spot for a Paiste PST X on your drum set!
Paiste’s tradition of innovation
Headquartered in Switzerland, Paiste meets the creative needs of drummers and percussionists with innovative cymbals, gongs, and bronze percussion instruments.

World-class drummers such as Bill Bruford, Stewart Copeland, and Vinnie Colaiuta have long relied on Paiste cymbals to forge their signature sounds - and you can, too!
