Rusty Chime

A chime made from an old, rusty cylinder found in a scrap pile.

The story

While moving a pile of metal scrap several years ago, I found this rusty cylinder and discovered, while moving it, that it had a rather pleasing tone, so I kept it, always intending to turn it into some sort of wind chime, but forgot about it.

Recently I ran across it again and realized I could turn it into a sampled instrument, so here it is.

    It's hard to believe this beautiful sound came from that cylinder! The word crystalline comes to mind. Reminds me a bit of Christmas bells as well. Great job my friend! Thank you.
