Amedia Hi Hat 15" Farqin
The main feature of Farqin is a hybrid construction divided into three surfaces, each worked through a different hammering or turning technique.
- Raw and hammered bell. Not turned and with a very visible hammering. Provides a drier, more direct response with plenty of character.
- Over-hammered central zone. It is the most controlled part of the cymbal and helps contain the wash, offering good stick definition.
- Finely turned edge. Allows the cymbal to open up more easily, generating a cleaner, more flexible response rich in harmonics.
The goal is for you to achieve distinctly different sounds depending on where you hit the cymbal.
How does it sound?
The overall character of the Farqin can be defined as:
- Clean and well-articulated sound
- Very musical harmonics, present but pleasant
- Controlled wash in the central area
- More open and expressive edge
- Dry, raw bell with personality
- Good response to both soft and medium dynamics
It is situated at an intermediate point: it retains the complex character of a handmade Turkish cymbal, but with a fairly organized and usable response. At Tam, we recommend it if you want a versatile pñlato for jazz, pop, funk, recording, or live performance.
Farqin is an interesting series for those who do not want to choose between a dry and an open cymbal. It offers both responses depending on the area used, making it especially expressive in large rides and crashes that are also used to mark patterns.
