 Sizzly splash sound.
My 10" Wuhan splash has been making this wierd sizzly, rattling noise lately, and I took it off the stand and hit it and it still did it, so it's not the stand. What's going on with it?

It'll make that noise before it even shows cracks I think...
I'm no expert, because I've never cracked a cymbals, but I'm pretty sure the rattle is a sign of a death blow, a.k.a. crack.

It's most likely on it's way out. Slap it as hard as you want. Wuhan's are not expensive to replace. P.O.Y!

Thanks guys. I only had to hit about 5 more times til it broke about half way around the bell. My other splash is a 12" Agazarian, so now I want a 10" Agazarian. Not much more expensive than Wuhan, way better sound.

Yeah Sounded like you had a crack on the way!
probably the worst noise a drummer could hear when cymbals are involved!

unless its got rivets, then its kinda normal for a cymbal to make that noise
