Hi everyone. I'm searching the Nord Sample Library for this sound and can't seem to find it. I think it's like a FM synthesis bell sound but I'm not sure. Please check this link.. it comes in 7 seconds into the song

any suggestions as to how to get this on an Electro 5?

thanks!

Have you tried the Tuned Percussion samples? The "Bells" sample could be a good place to start. Soften the attack. See if you can extend the decay/release depending upon how you are going to play it. Add reverb and some chorus and/or delay to thicken it up.

This is typically an FM bell sound.
You could try to find a patch in DEXED and sample it. Or maybe there are tons of DX bells sound around here that could be used.

thanks! that's what i thought as well but couldn't find any. if you can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. what is DEXED?

also, thanks for the tuned percussion idea... i'll try that later today

I have a DX7 bell sound on my laptop that I'm pretty sure is the iconic tubular bell preset from the DX7.

Hope this helps!

P.S. I don't remember where I found this sound...possibly here on the forum.
