These cymbals are a
perfect synthesis of power and warmth. They are ideal for any drummer looking
for a loud and powerful cymbal with quick response and a very high dynamic
range.
Bionic stands for two metal finishes. First
all cymbals go through a special tempering process to reduce surface tension.
After that they are polished by hand until they have a golden shimmering look
and an extremely hard and dense surface.
In combination with the ‘deep hammer’ method
the cymbals get their penetrating and aggressive but still mellow and
high-pitched sound.
Amazingly clean and cutting when played with
the foot, unbelievable stick definition, powerful when played with the shoulder
and all with surprising warmth. All in all an amazing set
of hi hats.
About
UFiP:
The UFIP history traces back to the 15th
century. Ancestors of the Tronci and Biasei families were making organ pipes and
candelabra for churches in Tuscany back then. Just recently a cymbal made of
bell bronze was discovered inside one of the oldest churches in Florence.
This dedication to create instruments for
sometimes divine musical experiences is still alive at UFIP today. Sound is
always at the core of all our efforts. Machines are only utilized as assistance
to hand made processes in order to ensure absolute consistency. Remotely
different from mass production facilities each step of cymbal making at UFIP is
controlled by experienced and dedicated cymbal smiths. A unique approach found
rarely in today’s fast moving and technology oriented world.
This is the background for the top of the line
UFIP range, the Roto Cast Collection which is considered as the ultimate in
sound among professional artists all over the world.
Roto Casting Ufip's exlusive roto casting creates more thickness
of material at the base of the bell giving more strength and integrity of sound
than any other cymbal. All other cast cymbals stretch the bell from the heated
cymbal ingot once rolled. This creates weakness in that area of the cymbal
resulting in common cracking problems and poor bell sound. With splash cymbals
this is crucial as much more of the cymbal's surface area is the bell. There is
no comparison between Ufip and any other splash.
Rotation creates
energy: Energy is the foundation for motion. And
finally sound is created through motion. A basis principle, adapted at UFIP for
making the world’s finest cymbals.
Using the exclusive roto-casting method,
developed by UFIP, molten bell bronze is cast into a rotating mold. This ensures
a very consistent, homogeneous structure and forms the basis for the following
manufacturing procedures: hammering, shaping and tuning. All aspects of
production contribute to the outstanding dynamic range and tonal qualities of
UFIP cymbals.
Roto-casting is what sets UFIP cymbals apart
from the rest: Unlike sheet metal cymbals UFIP cymbals make the difference in
sound and appearance
