Ding-Dong-Ding announcement chimes

Hi all

I have looked around but cant find anything suitable. I wonder if anyone has a midi keyboard or a music device to record this for me, or even has a sample tucked away somewhere.

What I am looking for is a ding-dong-ding chime to start a P.A. announcement like they have in airports etc. I think the notes are C then G the C+1 octave.
Perhaps a chime or a xylophone or similar.
3 notes would be great but if you want to play with this it could be 3 x 2-note chords perhaps or a different set of notes or played in a different order etc.
Totally dry without effects please.

Thanx ever so much.

Here is one "live" example of what I mean

Sounds like an easy one for me to do PJ. I'll do a sample with as many different sounds as I have 'chime/bell' instruments.

Cheers

David

OK, 5 different chime 'tunes' and 4 different style bells for each 'tune'. I've stored the MIDI and can edit it easily to move up/down scales/octaves as required if you want something different. Pro Tools comes with about 100 different types of bells/chimes.
