I'm trying to design a bell with csound. I found
a bit of material on
the web, but most of it has only graphic representations of the partials
of the sound and their suggested envelopes. I found one side with some
basic settings.
It's a fascinating subject. A lot of info is available on
<http://www.hibberts.co.uk/>, including some interesting
historical papers (one by Rayleigh himself, and an account
of an historical court case involving bells).
If you follow the link 'Bell collection' you'll find a number
of pages that preset measured partial frequencies in html table
format. You'll need some (simple) calculations to convert those
to Hz, but they look quite interesting.
