SABIAN 22'' AAX Omni

Sabian 22″ AAX OMNI

The Sabian 22″ AAX OMNI is a cymbal designed for drummers seeking power, versatility and sonic breadth – ideal as a primary cymbal with both punch and expansive wash.

Design and build

This 22-inch cymbal from Sabian’s AAX series uses the OMNI concept to deliver extra body and low-end presence, while maintaining quick response and clarity. The attack is crisp and the sound opens into a large, flowing wash when played freely.

Sound profile and applications

With its larger size, the AAX OMNI offers deep, resonant tones – it can work as a ride, a crash or a versatile all-round cymbal depending on your playing style. It’s ideal for rock, pop, fusion and live sets where cymbals must be seen and heard, but also fits studio usage where flexibility is key.

Why choose this one?

If you already own smaller cymbals and are looking for a larger, more commanding option that still retains control and musical character – this is a strong choice. It combines volume and presence without losing definition, making it suitable for both tracking and live performance.
