I shared this on Twitter - still kinda of blown away by it!
I've slowly been working on a project to build a BELL PIANO.
After collecting for a few years this is where I am at, approx 25 bells.
This week I managed to win an auction for a collection that looked like it would fill in some gaps in the range... When I paid for them I mentioned why I wanted them.. The owner shipped them... and they arrived this morning...
But the box seemed really heavy for the 12 bells I bought...
When I opened it up, guess what was inside?
ALL OF THIS!! (well, not the Timpani) like 70 bells!!!
Now I'm negotiating with the daughter of the seller, to pay more, or send some goodies etc as a reward for such extreme generosity! And I will immortalise the collection as a BELL PIANO virtual sampler instrument, and via spectral freezes a BELL DRONE PIANO, and will credit the original collector!
Totally unexpected - it would have taken me another decade to amass this collection myself!
Time for these bells to meet my Sanken CUX100k microphones!

I deeply admire the ethos of LOM, making their work open source.

Fun recording session yesterday:
This is a location called Echo Point - when I first visited here 15 years ago, there was a sign saying ‘ECHO POINT - startling echo heard here!’
The next time the sign was gone and I wasn’t 100% sure I was in the right spot, so this time I was determined… The gravel track into the estuary is so people can launch their boats into that tidal stream (its part of a massive estuary)
I recorded hand claps and also Hyoshigi and they triggered the echos a bit but I also had a starter pistol with me and fired 12 shots at 2 distances, and the echos almost ripple/peel like thunder!
Recordered 32/192 MixPre10 with 8 channels: 8040x2, 8020x2, 70x2 and CUX100kx2, can’t wait to process & compare IRs!
This is from 15 years ago (recording with a SD722 and Sanken CSS5 stereo mic)
