Detail 01
Trash splash
Not a normal splash. It has a raw, gong-like edge with a short noisy burst rather than a clean bell-shaped attack.

ZildjianOriental Trash Splash Cymbal 11 in.
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
11-inch trash splash from Zildjian's Oriental line. Short, raw, noisy accent cymbal for drummers who want a china-like burst rather than a clean splash.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Sharp trashy stabs in metal, hardcore and hip-hop kits
- Stacking on top of a china or crash for a tighter choke
- Electronic and hybrid setups needing a dirty acoustic accent
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Jazz and worship players wanting a clean, musical splash
- Drummers who need sustain — this dies almost immediately
- Anyone expecting a traditional splash tone; this is deliberately harsh
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
11 inch diameter
Slightly larger than a standard splash, so it carries a bit more body and volume while still cutting off fast.
Detail 03
Oriental series
Zildjian's exotic line, built for raw and unconventional sounds rather than blending with a traditional cymbal setup.
Detail 04
Splash-length decay
Attack and stop, with little wash. Useful for tight rhythmic hits that do not blur into the next bar.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No mount included. Needs a spare cymbal arm, or a stacker if you are layering it.
- 02Stacking on another cymbal changes the sound and shortens decay further — plan mounting hardware accordingly.
- 03Small trashy cymbals crack under flat hits; strike glancing, near the edge.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What is the difference between a trash splash and a regular splash?
A regular splash gives a clean, short burst of pitch. A trash splash is deliberately raw and noisy, closer to a small china in character.
02Does this work for stacking?
Yes. Trash splashes are commonly stacked over a crash or china to get a tighter, dirtier choke. You need a stacker or an extra arm.
03Is it too harsh for quieter music?
For most acoustic and worship settings, yes. It is designed to cut and sound aggressive rather than blend.
04How does 11 inches compare to a 10-inch splash?
The extra inch adds a bit more body and volume, and drops the pitch slightly, while keeping the fast cut-off of a splash.
