SABIANAAX OMNI Ride 22 in.
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
22-inch crash/ride hybrid from Sabian's AAX line. For drummers who want one cymbal to cover ride patterns and full crashes on a small kit.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Small kits or fly rigs where one cymbal replaces two
- Drummers who crash the ride mid-groove and want it to open
- Wider dynamic range from a single 22-inch cymbal
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers wanting a tight, dry, articulate jazz ride ping
- Anyone needing clean stick definition under loud, dense playing
- Budget-first buyers building a first full cymbal set
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
OMNI crash/ride design
Built to be played both as a ride and crashed outright, so it washes up more than a dedicated ride.
Detail 03
AAX series
AAX is Sabian's brighter, more cutting line, so it stays present rather than dark and dry.
Detail 04
$499.99
Sits in the professional single-cymbal bracket, above student packs and below top-tier hand-hammered lines.
Detail 05
Ride cymbal role
Mounts on a straight or boom stand to your right; it is not a hi-hat or splash replacement.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01A cymbal stand is not included; a 22-inch cymbal needs a stable base
- 02Check kit spacing — 22 inches needs more room than a 20
- 03Bring or buy a felt, sleeve and wing nut if your stand lacks them
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this as my only cymbal?
That is the point of the design. It rides with a defined bell and crashes fully, so a small kit can run one cymbal plus hi-hats.
02Is 22 inches too big for a small kit?
Physically it needs clearance and a solid stand, but plenty of compact kits run a single large crash/ride. Measure your setup first.
03How does the 22 compare to the 18?
The 22 is lower pitched with longer sustain and more wash. The 18 responds faster, sits higher and takes less space.
04Does it come with a stand or bag?
No. It ships as the cymbal alone, so budget for a stand, sleeve and felts if you do not already have them.
