The Zildjian GEN16 concept is an awesome tool: real acoustic cymbals that are a quarter of the volume of traditional designs with pickups that allow you to integrate them with an electronic drum kit. This pack includes hats, a crash and ride, a specially designed mixer unit and a mount for that mixer. The mix can blend and pan 5 cymbals as well as a stereo input from your electronic kit before outputting the whole lot as summed stereo for the stage PA. Perfect for use in places of worship, education or practice where ambient noise should ideal be kept to a minimum but while maintaining the sound, integrity and feel of real cymbals.
