You just made it sound that way, Reece.  :)  But you know me...I seem to have trouble with even the easy things.  Fortunately I finally figured out a few things.  :) 

JC...seriously?  I don't remember seeing that.  I'll have a look.  Thanks.  (I may need to put some reading glasses at my DAW now...)  

Thanks James.  I'll do that if these things don't work.  Well, just send it anyway:  janet dot wohlgemut at gmail dot com.  

Hey thanks for the email addy, Janet...now I can stalk you! Oh wait, I forgot...I already do. LOL!!! :)

Well, I have real ones also...but in a pinch, I've used these several times and they work incredibly well.

Good luck! :)

JC...thanks...I'd found those, but these are the type of chimes I had in mind.  They're probably called something different....

But on these samples that I recorded, you can hear the one on the end clicking on the upright bar.  I tried holding that one so it wouldn't click, but then the next one did.  Maybe this is a cheap version and there's no way around it.  Any way to eq that clacking out of there?  Or do I need to find another set or a sample?  

Danny....don't tell anyone what my address is, K?  ;)   Hey, I tried that link and it doesn't work. 

....got it figured out and the new samples are in the first post.   

Wait....that link works when I open it up in my email.  :) 

Sitting here looking at those chimes this morning...it finally dawned on my I can hold it on its side and the chimes won't hit the poles!  :)  Can't wait to try it.  :)

Hmm, that's weird Janet....you're right it doesn't work, yet when I go back to that link going to it manually...it works. Try this one.

Ok, I hear what you mean now. That would be a "bar chime". And even though you can fix it, I would look elsewhere. The "Latin Percussions" EZX from Toontrack has 3 kinds of chimes (including the bar chime). And they sound pretty good too, or... see if Danny's suggestion above fits your needs. Let me know if that doesn't work out.

Thanks Danny.  Got the link to work.  :)

Yeah, JC, I didn't really know what they were called.  (obviously) . :)  I have the Latin Percussion (I think!), so I'll check there too.
