I really enjoyed Exetone Studio's recording of a bell found here - https://freesound.org/people/exotonestudio/sounds/416992/

I took this sample into Melodyne and moved all of its frequencies into "C" range. This gets rid of harmonics and makes the sample well-suited to use as a musical instrument.

I prefer the original sample for some purposes. Unprocessed, it has a richer sound. And I also truncated to get rid of a tricky bit I couldn't fix. And I combined stereo tracks into mono, since that works better for an instrument where one wants to control panning inside of a composition.

So as a pure sound effect, I recommend the original. This version is just useful as an instrument.
