NBC Chimes

Degan "Studio" Chimes. Recorded through a RCA 4AA condenser microphone of the same vintage, circa 1931. The chimes were brought up to their original quality by Master Tuner Gilberto Serna of Century Mallet instrument service. www.centurymallet.com/ .
Interesting history of Degan www.richsamuels.com/nbcmm/deag...
I brought the RCA 4AA back to life about a year ago.

Well this article says differently but I worked for NBC affiliates in teh 50s and 60s and we definitely had recording of a guitar we used. Whatever. Yo have a neat toy there. It woudbe great to acquire the original Automated xylophone that NBC actually used after 1932! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBC_chimes

[@w9ad502]

+Bud Chestnut , these links are sort of interesting. www.nbcchimes.info/dnbc.php bayarearadio.org/schneider/chimes.shtmlI never remember seeing any of these when I worked for the NBC O&O Network station in Chicago (WMAQ). There was a rangertone machine still there when I was, but went out of service around the mid 70's. I never really discussed the chimes much but there were a lot of the other engineers that and their history went back to the Red & Blue network day who probably knew a lot.
