Liquicy™ brand cymbals represent a quantum leap in cymbal sound.

• - Hit the edge with sticks for eerie fluttering crashes with liquid flanging and vibrato FX.
• - Ride the various sweet spots for a mellow washing tone with
  fluid undertones.
• - Super complex, dark tones
• - Mounting upside-down actually speeds up the vibrato/phasing speed.
• - The flange wave of Liquicy™ constantly shifts the sound so no single tone ever creates a peak. The result- a wild, yet smooth effect.
• - Hand and mallet hits are equally effective.
• - Optional, removable rivets
  

Liquicy™ Cymbals Are Tough ! The unusual flexibility and vibrato wave of Liquicy™ cymbals actually have little to do with their relative thinness. While they are fairly thin, the wave action instead comes from a proprietary metal tempering and forming process as well as a new type of bronze alloy on which Hammerax has filed multiple patents.

The flexing of Liquicy™ actually adds shock resistance, so they are quite unlikely to crack. Regarding keyholing and center cracking, a major cause (besides the obvious lack of proper sleeves) is an over worked and sharply punched hole. Hammerax borrows techniquies from the aircraft industry and treats holes with great care- polishing holes to a rounded mirror finish- hence preventing the small microcracks from which most big cracks grow. This new alloy is also unusually strong and crack resistant.

So the short answer is... Your Hammerax™ cymbal will last a very long time... You can play them quite hard.

We do not however recommend over-bending the Liquicy brand. The subsonic vibrato is "tuned" to a perfect frequency to create the wave. Bending your Liquicy™ cymbal wildly to show off the flex could hurt the sound.
