An old hand bell recorded using an AKG Perception 200 microphone at close range and a Roland SP-404sx. This is a single stroke of the bell, capturing lots of ringout. I used Audacity to remove ambient noise from my studio to provide a clean sound. I believe the bell was used for signaling the start of school many years ago. It is marked B 39.
