They contribute to the cymbal’s breathy attack and fast decay.

Independent shopping perspective
MEINL’s 12-inch Pure Alloy Trash China is a compact China cymbal for short, breathy accents. Its cutout holes are paired with a quick fade, so hits can punctuate fills and busy passages without lingering over the kit. Play it on its own for a brief trash effect, or add it to a cymbal stack when you want a more sustained trash-crash response. Full lathing and machine hammering complete the traditional-finish design.
