Sabian SD2410 24" Stratus Dry Ride

Sabian's 24" Stratus Dry Ride is a modern dark ride built for players chasing a wide, controlled wash without the blooming sustain that can muddy a mix. At 24 inches, it delivers deep, low-pitched tones while remaining lightweight enough to respond expressively under the stick. The hammered bell cuts through with clear articulation, making it equally at home in the studio or on a live stage where definition matters. The Stratus series favours controlled decay over wash-out, a critical advantage when layering rides in dense arrangements or fast-paced playing. Lightweight construction keeps the cymbal physically responsive without sacrificing the low-end spread expected from a large format. The bell work is deliberate and present, providing a defined note centre that sits independent of the riding surface. This combination makes the 24" Stratus useful for drummers working in heavier genres, contemporary jazz, or any style where articulation and control take priority over sustain.
