Omni Explained- Jojo Mayer Talks About and Demonstrates His New SABIAN Omni Cymbal

[unConTrolleDdruMEr]

i love the 22" use it for ride/crash obviously, its amasing. i use it for rock and metal. amasing cymbal hope they never stop making it

[jamesdancer73]

HATE THAT FIRST SONG HE PLAYS TOO!!! I HATE IT!

[SERCHSOS3722]

Just got the 22" version today and its so freakin' gorgeous!!!!

[ShittyMcPoopyBalls]

Pretty much an HH duo

[ratsperm7]

profesional hobbo!!!

[beatcrazy14]

0:32 Second Line shit goin down Im loving it

[laqueefa311]

Jojo looks like he just did 5 lines of coke...but hell the omni cymbal is extremely cool so keep up the good work *sniff sniff*



[easter760]

I'm glad there are people like Jojo Mayer to pay attention to the little details that improve drumming, cause I'm a lazy ass hahaha.

[DarknessDrawsCloser]

I peed a little.

[A3189]

financial aid, here i come!!!!



[SimonVicFirth]

The jungle track from 1:05 to the end is so awesome. Is it made by Nerve or is it just a sample of JoJo's private collection? Does it have a title? How do I get this track, I could really use it for any audition for any school of arts.

[Fredrumw]

@SimonVicFirth Tetrastigm by JoJo Mayer and Nerve

[Blackfist2106]

Where's Jojo? The only guy I see playing the drums is Tony Iommi

[dreamopeth]

Proud owner of the OMNI ride, be careful not to crash it too hard as its a very thin edge.

[XPauldriverX]

Funniest thing, I have an El Sabor hand crash myself and even after upgrading all my cymbals too AAX I still kept it. I just loved it and has been my favourite cymbal since the day I stumbled across it and bought it for a laugh on e-bay. What strikes me is that he modeled the OMNI series after that El Sabor hand crash.

[brienooy]

what song is that ? (for intro)

[jonnydrums413]

dude, benny greb came out with this already

[VitRadek]

@jonnydrums413 I love the Sandride, but Omni cymbals are something new and have very little in common with the Sandride.

[MrCacabouda]

DeNiro impression @ 0:26

[tyty98]

He looks like he's been hittin the coke...hard.

[Runjakovich]

What are the songs the songs in the beginning, and the song that plays at 1:20... What are they

[c0d3x001]

i think jojo found what i was looking for :D

[JulianwithJ]

the first song he plays, what is it called ?

[ThomasMetal75]

I never realized how ugly Jo Jo was.

[sempleking]

I play in a punk rock band and the ride is amazing for it. It has a nice big bell on it and sounds great for break downs hitting the crash part. big sound!!!

[theTVremote2697]

Even though the omni is mostly for jazz, I'm still gonna get it even though I'm a heavy metal drummer.

[simonbeckmusic]

@theTVremote2697 i got 1 for that and it rocks

[handidrummed]

@theTVremote2697 The 22" Omni is very versatile and would definitely work in a metal setting. Very articulate stick definition and a solid bell.

[marcdedouvan]

Genius at work!

End of story.

[ryodhino]

what drum set does he usually use... i know it's sonor..

[kikme778]

I want his jacket.



[julianisdope]

would love to see how some omni hi hats would sound

[overtone83]

@julianisdope Probably very bright and washy. Can you imagine the foot click sound? Amazing.

[Timmyinc44]

The man can groove like the great jazz legends.

[smn4me]

whats the ride in 0:44 ?

[VitRadek]

@smn4me it's not a ride, it's 22" Omni

[RobotsEatPeople111]

whats the jazz bit hes playing?

[TheDjamiloBoth]

damn. i love his sunglasses.

[Beatlemaniac1234]

Anyone know what he's playing at the begginig? A song name? Or is it just a jam?

[MrKendrum]

@Beatlemaniac1234 check out Derbyshire from their ep3, it's on their site

[SuperMolamola]

is kinna like the sandride uh?

[SuperMolamola]

too much resemblence to the sandrides, thats a stole folksssss

jojo youre amazing and th

[adioskaterdude999]

killer playing of course, but more importantly, it seems like sabian has put out a product that solves the ages old crash ride compromise dilemma. nice bell, nice washy ride, sexy sharp crash. absolutely perfect.

[ianbhtube]

it seems like somebody finally managed to crack the multipurpose cymbal thing. Ive been trying to find a cymbal like this for years and have tried various models, right now ive resorted to using a 22" thin ride because i can crash it but both the ride sound and crash sound are as jojo said compromised. This is the one for me!

[LewisTheDogue]

Love the beat at 1;05 till the end!!!

Especially at 1;30-1;35!

Great stuff makes me wanna move !

[SabianTamaDrummer]

What nationality is Jojo?

[ifuckingownn]

@SabianTamaDrummer He's from Switzerland.

[VitRadek]

@SabianTamaDrummer Citizens of Jojostan are of jojo nationality :D

[thezilla31]

omnomnomnomnomni

[dieconashi]

He sounds great (as always) but he does not look well.

[ThePurpleDrumStick]

Crashride = not really a crash, not really a ride, Omni = a crash and a ride!

[F4Phantom29]

Jojo's on crack

[snake006006]

these cymbals are amazing!!

already had the opportunity to play them.

even in a metal-set, i can use them

[Katsumerisfun]

I want a 16" OMNI

[lotzi20062006lotzi]

[MrScottxxx]

[cheapshotdrummer]

[halabinono]

[overcontrol]

@f2theorrest stupid comment

[rickyman223]

IS it weird that this guy looks like my Therapist??? O_o

[fallen1102]

at 1:05 does anyone know what song that is he is playing

[Odin100500]

@fallen1102 Nerve - Tetrastigm

[noconfig]

@fallen1102 Moonwalker by Nerve

[KaeviNzXD]

it should be called the AAX Craide. Crash + Ride. lol. Great job Sabian!

[noconfig]

@KaeviNzXD Or even AAX Rash!

[magikarpp]

que rico

[Odin100500]

what song he plays in the beginning?

[archonish]

i'm waiting for the omni-hats! you hear that Sabian?? OMNI-HATS! (preferably at 14.5" or 15" since one of the rides is 22", and 14.5 would just be a cool diameter)

[noconfig]

@archonish Or 13.75, like K Custom Hybrid Hats!

[ServesYaRight]

i thought i was the only one to think of this!

[678Drummer]

anybody know how much it cost?

[TheLiesette]

@678Drummer I got one today and it ran me around 400 bones.

[678Drummer]

@TheLiesette Can u make a video for it?

[TheLiesette]

@678Drummer unfortunately I don't have a video camera, let me tell you that it's UNREAL though. I'm in a band in Kalamazoo, Mi. If you ever pass through, you could hear it there.

[1Drummer88]

At 0:00 i thought ... "Wow amazing playing"

At 0:35 i thought ... "shit dude ... amazing"

At 1:05 i thought ... "holy motherfucker ..... jesus christ ... for god sakes .... this shit is ingenius

[Kierank30]

@1Drummer88 Terrible attempt to get into top rated

[joegritschacher]

TOTALLY NEED THOSE CYMBALS!!

[KaeviNzXD]

and there goes the fierce ride! bye!

[75Tatanka]

what's wrong with his look?

[NapoRinc]

SABIAN Simply is the Best!

His Drum set is so hot!

[EmoblogerKid]

What is the song he plays in the end?

[parapickle]

@EmoblogerKid It's called "Tetrastigm". It's on Nerve's ep1.

[OutOfTheOven]

So, these are basically Sabian's response to K hybrid cymbals?

[dave90mckeague]

@OutOfTheOven no, the only similarity is the unlathed centre. Sabian takes it to a whole new level by thinning the edge .

[archonish]

@OutOfTheOven

aren't k custom hybrids even from edge to center? this is also a brighter sound from the k's, aax's are the brightest cymbals on the market. k dark's are niiice tho

[apexpein39]

he looks like an evil pedophile with that look..... not!! hes frakin awesome and ill never say that to my hero

[lotzi20062006lotzi]

how is the song called he plays at the beginning?

[SONORSQ2guy]

These are some of the most innovative cymbals I've ever seen.

[DrumCoalitionWithWar]

amazing

[skinkpaj]

Totaly sick, Jojo kills everything!

[thezilla31]

@skinkpaj could he go to my step mothers house then?

[thezilla31]

@skinkpaj then can he go to my house? lots of rats here...

[skinkpaj]

@thezilla31 Of course, no problems at all... he just smashes the rats hard as fuck with a sick moellerstroke pattern with the drumsticks hehe!

[dannylaka]

When are the cymbals coming out? :9

[masterbeat04]

@dannylaka like...right now man!! visit memphis drumshop

[dave90mckeague]

@dannylaka i bought one from memphis drum shop! awesome cymbal (22" ofcourse!), check my vid demo for a more 'real-life' sound

[iCe1984zz]

Nice! Like the sound of those!
