are mono but good sounding, and respect the resonance of the 54 bells,
from B flat to F, on 4 octaves. The samples have been converted from
mp3 to wave, and regularly disposed in space from left to right, using
the pan adjustement in the soundfont with Vienna Soundfont.
In
this belfry, there are no bells for the B and the C sharp of the first
octave. To respect the original instrument, i did not add these missing
notes. If you want them, and if you know how to make soundfont, you can
interpolate them easily. The whole soundfont weighs 26,2 MB. If you
want the Hauprtwerk version, please go to Soni Musicae / Hauptwerk.
