Both Mike’s and Meinl’s goal was to create a cymbal that can effortlessly transition from articulate sticking to a wide open and tonally fuller crash-ride function (and back) while never losing the stick definition. The result is a multi-purpose ride cymbal with an extremely versatile sound. The Transition ride has an unlathed top for clear sticking and a present but not overpowering bell. It also features a unique half polished/half raw finish. The bottom is completely lathed and polished to a brilliant finish which allows the ride to move through various dynamic levels with control over the degree of clarity and level of wash.

Features:

Unlathed top for clear sticking and a present but not overpowering bell
Effortlessly transition between ride and crash
Articulate sticking to a wide open and tonally fuller crash-ride function
Never lose the stick definition
A multi-purpose ride cymbal with an extremely versatile sound

A wonderful multi purpose cymbal

The mixed lathed and un-lathed surfaces on this cymbal really give you a great mixture of colors and tone. The unlathed top is really raw and allows the player to get great stick definition. Since the bottom surface has been lathed that reduced mass really allows this cymbal to open up and create a great washy brilliance. A great addition to most cymbal set-ups for diversity.

Transition into perfection!

I've used this cymbal for a couple of years and I've really come to appreciate the characteristics of this ride. Meinl has created a cymbal that really strikes a great balance of articulation and wash. This cymbal is definitely one of the most versatile rides out there, and is great for almost any style of music! Joey Baca @ store 57 Indianapolis, IN

AMAZING cymbal

Beautiful cymbal!! I'm so happy with it. It responds perfectly to exactly what you ask it to do, from a light ping to a monstrous crash. It can get as nuanced in its washiness as a hi-hat, which is rare for a ride. I am being offered a chance to win $1000 by Sam Ash for posting this review.
