Overview

An explosive, unique effect from the mind of Matt Halpern and the MEINL R&D team.

The MEINL Matt Halpern Artist Concept Byzance Double Down Stack consists of a 17″ crash and 18″ China, which can be played inverted (both bells facing down) or upright (both bells facing up). The inverted configuration delivers a sloshy, hissing sound while the upright configuration provides incredibly explosive attack and volume to cut through the most extreme amplifiers.

“The Double Down Stack is the result of almost ten years of experimentation with stacked cymbals. To me, its the culmination of the best sounds Ive been able to produce and utilize in both live and studio settings. Its extremely versatile. You can configure the stack so it cuts through the loudest of music in the loudest of venues, or you can change it up and use it in the most dynamic of musical situations. No matter what kind of music you play, the Double Down Stack will undoubtedly help you shape your sound.” Matt Halpern
