Tubular Bells [SAMPLES]

This was a fun opportunity. Sampling tubular bells! The sustain on these things was fairly insane! I tapped each bell with roughly the same amount of force (chime hammer).

The 18 bells go from C1 to F2.
They were recorded in Mono using a Shure SM57 with a FETHEAD Preamp. Recorded at 24-bit, 48 kHz.

A small amount of post-production was done to remove any background or electrical noise.
A short fadeout has been applied.
All recordings were normalised to -3dB without limiting or compression added.
