Meinl CRING Ching Ring 5-stars Reviews

Useful peace of gear

I like to use those on my hi hat or crash cymbal, where I need continuous ringing sound. Works very well in acoustic setups. The quality and sound is superb for the price, can only recommend this little useful thing.

great little piece of gear

great on hi hats and stacks

Best cheap thing ever?

I've had the ching ring for two days now and have basically tried it on every drum surface I have - it works equally good on top of a hi-hat, ride, crash, toms and snare.

It's distinctive enough to cut through the mix and give you that little bit of extra shine even in loud metal setting and is not overpowering when played softly.

At this price point I fail to see any cons. Should have ordered more than one.

Very good product!

Very good sounding ching ring, the product has a really nice sound and it perfectly cuts through the mix! It's stable and strong and definetly affordable!

Good Thing To Have

I find it useful not even for blues or jazz music, I use it even when I play metal. It makes the sound richer. Great thing to use when you play with cymbals stack (I put it between 18" china and 14" hi-hat top). Everyone who tried mine ching ring, thinking about buying it.

useful

does exactly what you'd expect to give that nice tambourine sound. Sounds great on cymbals too if you have a small enough bell! My favourite is having it on the snare because of its size you still get the natural ring of the snare! price is great what more do you want!

Excellent thing

A very nice sizzly effect - really depends where you put it - it is sweet on crashes and rides, could be a good stacker on a china or something like that. I prefer to use it on the hihat - it does a very nice thing, where it adds some dry attack to the closed hihat (unless you hit the ring itself) and the full tambourine-like chick comes off only on the pedal chick. Very nice.

Essential for any kit bag

I've had so much fun with this. It is so flexible and can be used on crash's, rides, toms, hats, snares to give different textures to your sounds. I may get a second one!

nice

Nice sound to use on several drums or cymbals, I like this a lot

Nothing but awesome!

Subtle but impressive sound, really good build

Love this!

This is an excellent addition to give your hi hat a different sound. Lots of songs in I play call for a bit of tamborine but i hate having to set it up. With a bit of thought this works as a substitute. Also for splashy hats it give the hats an extra layer also.

For the money you can't go wrong with these.

No negatives for me. One of my best purchases.

FX

Great little jingle ring for effects, love putting it on a hihat, also great if it is put on a ride cymbal or crash cymbal. Sounds great!

Sometimes i put it on my snare drum and it gives a totaly different sound, which is fun to play with!

Dont buy one, buy 2!

So Awesome

Really flexible tool for the drumset. Meinl could be triple the price and it would be worth it.

It brings a unique sound to any part of the kit: Snare, Hi Hat, floor tom, ride. Very distinct yet modern sound. On the ride it gives it a really aggressive sizzle.

I love this thing.

Simple, but very cool! Grooves sound more like folk!

Very good workmanship - robust and reliable device!

I Like it!!!

Cheap, well-made, easy to use. Why not?

Predominantly used on the hi-hat. Could also use on any ride, crash cymbal, or stacker.

On the hi hat, adds a very nice tambourine sound when operated by the foot. When closed and played with a stick, adds a nice, quiet, percussive tone.

No cons, if you don't want it on a particular track, take it off.

A nice addition, giving you more sound options for very little cost.

Cheap, awesome and an essential addition to your collection.

One of the latest must have 'fashionable' drum kit accessories. Even if you only use it on one song in a set, for the bargain price you may as well get one! Superb quality, well priced and with the potential for use in various different ways makes this product one of the hottest things meinl make. If you don't have one already, why not?!

Wonderful

The Meinl Ching Ring gave me just the right "ching". Most hi-hat tambourines are too loud in my opinion but the Meinl Ching Ring gives a tight, dry sound that doesn?t get in the way. The ChingRing also makes hi-hat stick patterns fatter and thicker. Build quality is excellent. Love this thing!
