Sabian B8 cymbals are of a higher quality. Zildjian Planet Z are made from brass, while Sabian B8 are made from bronze. There is no comparison between brass and bronze for cymbal quality. The more fair comparison would be between Zildjian Planet Z and Sabian Solar. Both are sheet cymbals made from brass. They are both decent quality for what they are, which is an entry level product. Any cymbals that are made from brass are made from brass for one reason and one reason only, and that is to hit the lowest possible price point. Brass is much better used for candle stick holders, rather than cymbals. It is very limited in its sonic possibilities.

What is b8 in guitar?

When a number is displayed after a chord, it means that you add that number of the scale of the chord you're playing to the chord as an addition, so actually, note number 8 on a guitar is the same as 1. And a major chord already has the note numbers 1,3,and 5 in the chord. In a nutshell, whoever told you that you needed to play a "b8" doesn't know a thing about music theory, because a regular b chord already has that scale # in it. But a B chord would go like this: -----2------ -----4------ -----4------ -----4------ -----2------ -----2------

Is DXP a good drum kit brand?

in my opinion, Mapex, Pearl, or Tama would be a much better bet. millennium and dxp are both off brands. if you need a less expensive drumset, check brands on guitarcenter.com. any brand they have should listed will be better than other obscure brands. With decades of experience in drumming, I find the answer to drum sounds to be associated with the wood chosen to manufacture the drum as well as the methods used to cut the bearing edges, therefore the question is not a easily answered as simply picking a manufacturer. The answer is more related to the sound one wishes to produce with the drum If one is looking for muffled but hollow log sound without much tonal effect, the drum manufacturer does not matter all that much, about anything will suffice If one is looking for a jazz tone the the wood used to manufacture the drums is best if its maple, however Maple usually falls short on volume If one is looking for projection of the sound with volume and tone then other woods such as birch and oak will provide that type of sound Metal drums provide a very distinct crack sound like that of a whip, which is why they are often associated with Snare drum design. Its not uncommon for a snare drum to be different than other kit drums as a snare must provide the distinctive sound one desires. The shell ply has a lot to do with resonance, thin shells tend to resonate more while thick shells resonate less but project more Smaller drums provide higher pitches and add tone and color to the overall sound The more tuning lugs there are on a drum the more even a head can be tuned the less lugs on a drum the less control over even tension there is. Usually smaller drums will have less lugs than larger drums and less expensive drums with have less lugs than expensive drums (contain the costs) Finally there are the plethora of heads on the market today which can change the sound of a drum entirely. There are clear, coated, dotted, hydraulic, muffled etc. and variations within those groups so the choices can be mind boggling with heads ... Coated Ambassador is a good starting point Cymbals are yet another different arena themselves but rest assured that the Sabian B8 20in ride is the mainstay of most kits in use today. After that crash, splash cymbals, high hats cymbals, and special effects cymbals, are a matter of personal preference and financial capability. Therefore many things need to be considered when deciding on drums, especially kits. Its best to get the sound you are looking for initially as opposed to purchasing 2 or even 3 sets of drums as a progression toward finding that sound. Don't be afraid of used drums as most are quite durable and can survive road use for decades while still holding their sound.

How do you add cells b8 and b8 from different worksheets on Excel?

IF they are on Sheet1 and Sheet2, then in a cell other than those two you would put a the following formula: =Sheet1!B8 + Sheet2!B8 So the trick is to use the name of the sheet, followed by an exclamation mark, followed by the cell you want to use. The formula can go on any sheet.

How do you calculate integers to the power of -8.2 or other minus decimal places?

Example: Let's say b-8.2, where b is an integer. First step, turn the negative exponent to a positive one, and then use the laws of exponents. b-8.2 = 1/b8.2 = 1/b8+1/5 = 1/[b8b1/5] = 1/b8 * 1/b1/5 = 1/b8 * {1(b4/5)/[(b1/5)(b4/5)]} = 1/b8 * b4/5/b(1/5)+(4/5) = 1/b8 * b4/5/b5/5 = 1/b8 * b4/5/b = b4/5/b8+1 = b4/5/b9
