When SABIAN introduced the AAX Omni in 2010, never had so much sonic contrast and versatility existed in just one cymbal. With the launch of a new HHX Omni, Jojo Mayer and SABIAN have taken those same sonic properties to a whole new level. While both the AAX and HHX deliver outstanding contrast and versatility, the new dark Omni provides more nuanced tone on the ride surface. This means the stick sound stays a safe distance from the body, refusing to get swallowed up no matter how loudly it���s played. It also adds the dimension of playing with the shoulder, which not only has a wonderful texture, but also excites more of the cymbal���s body without activating the crash. The 22��� HHX Omni delivers the ultimate in sonic contrast and versatility, both on its own or with other cymbals. It���s a go-anywhere-play-anywhere cymbal, and you can play any gig with the HHX Omni. Jojo Mayer From Zurich, the son of Bass player Vali Mayer, Jojo spent much of his early childhood on the road in Europe and the Far East. At the age of 2 he got his first drum set, and he made his first public performance in Hong Kong at 3! By 18 he had joined Monty Alexander's group touring major festivals in Europe; that led to gigs with Dizzy Gillespie & Nina Simone, while introducing him to larger International Jazz audiences.

Moving to New York City in 1991, he soon built up a number of writing and production credits for his significant live and studio work. Jojo Mayer is known for bringing together jazz, drum and bass, jungle, and other influences. He is also famous for his ability to play the rhythms of programmed jungle D&B music on acoustic drums. He executes this approach using various methods such as the Heel-toe bass drum technique, the Moeller stroke, and the "pull-out" or "push-pull" accent. Using these techniques, he can play beats at astonishing speeds.
