Unreferenced date June 2008 In cymbal making , taper refers to the gradual change in thickness from the bell to the rim of the cymbal . It is one of the key features that determines the timbre tone of the cymbal. This change is typically not uniform, and it is extremely difficult to generalise on the effects of taper, just to say that they are profound. Crash cymbal s tend to have the most pronounced taper, with the faster crashes and the richer tones the most pronounced of all. The bell of a paperthin crash or a fast crash can be thicker than that of many ride cymbals. On the other hand, china cymbal s tend to have little or no taper, as do the heavy to medium weights of splash cymbal s. Hi hat cymbal Hi hat and ride cymbal s tend to have intermediate taper, with the washier ride cymbals having less than the pingier cymbals, but there are exceptions. A flat ride cymbal may have no taper at all and simply be a machined disk of uniform thickness, but a slight taper is more common. Category Cymbals percussion instrument stub ... more details

Cymbal s are made from four main alloys , all of them copper based. These are bell bronze, malleable bronze, brass and nickel silver. Bell bronze Bell bronze , also known as bell metal , is the traditional alloy used for fine cymbals, many gongs and, as the name suggests, bell instrument bell s. It is normally stated to be one part tin to four parts copper, that is 20 tin, and this is still the most common formula. But there has always been some variation. Larger and smaller bells are cast with differing amounts of tin, and some bell, gong and cymbal makers use small but significant amounts of other elements, notably silver , gold and phosphorus . Bell bronze is a two phase alloy, meaning that some of the tin is not dissolved in the copper grains but exists between them. This makes the metal harder and more brittle than a single phase alloy, and also affects the way the metal responds to hardening by hammering and lathing, and greatly restricts the use of mechanised techniques of manufacture.
