ABSTRACT:
A foot operated cymbal assembly includes a cymbal stand with a cymbal mounted near its top. A first foot pedal is positioned near the bottom of the stand. A beater operated by the first foot pedal is positioned on the stand to strike the cymbal. A second foot pedal is positioned near the bottom of the stand. A cymbal vibration damper is positioned on the stand for selective engagement with the cymbal by operation of the second foot pedal. In preferred form of the invention, the foot pedals are positioned to be actuable by the same foot. This stand and cymbal assembly allows a single percussionist to produce a substantially more complex pattern of sounds using a cymbal than possible with the prior art.
