Strong match

Who this is for

  • Orchestral and church percussion setups
  • Drummers adding a swell before a chorus or intro

  • Anyone on a tight budget for one effect sound

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

36 bars

More bars mean a longer, smoother sweep with fewer gaps in pitch. Smaller sets sound sparser and end sooner.

Detail 02

Studio designation

Built for controlled recording use where an even, consistent sweep matters more than raw volume.

Detail 03

Natural finish

Uncoloured wood top bar. Keeps it visually neutral on a stage or in a studio shot.

Detail 04

Bar chime format

Bars hang free and ring against each other. You sweep a finger or stick across them rather than striking one note.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01No stand included, and chimes need a dedicated mount
  2. 02Tangled bars are the common problem in transport and storage
  3. 03Needs clear space so bars swing freely without hitting hardware

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do I need a stand?

Yes. Chimes must hang free to ring properly, so you will need a chime mount or stand separately.

02How is this different from a smaller chime set?

36 bars gives a longer, denser sweep. Smaller sets cover less pitch range and the swell ends faster.

03Can I use it live?

Yes, though it is voiced for studio consistency. On loud stages you may need close miking to hear it.

04How do you play bar chimes?

Drag a finger, stick or mallet across the bars in one direction. Speed and direction control the character of the sweep.
