The Chime Master music library is the heart of our products. Decades of arranging and carefully recording each hymn by [[Music_staff|experienced church musicians]] has resulted in the best available music for automatic ringing.

A dynamic record of how the musician stroked the keyboard as they performed each song is permanently stored in ~~[[Millennium_Carillon|Millennium]] and [[Platinum_Carillon|Platinum]]~~ carillons. For each song, appropriate arrangements for specific sizes of bell instruments are stored in permanent memory as virtual piano rolls. These arrangements trigger the playback of individual bell recordings in real time in a similar fashion as an old player piano.

A dynamic record of how the musician stroked the keyboard as they performed each song is permanently stored in our AX carillons (no MP3 files). For each song, appropriate arrangements for specific sizes of bell instruments are stored in permanent memory as virtual piano rolls. These arrangements trigger the playback of individual bell recordings in real time in a similar fashion as an old player piano.

Music is stored in the [[Six-SS_Carillon|Six-SS]] carillon as a media recording called a track. These audio tracks are created using a special studio prototype of the Platinum carillon and a recording computer that captures the performance completely in the digital domain, eliminating the noise and distortion caused by analog converters.

== Multiple Arrangements ==

~~Millennium and Platinum~~ carillon libraries include up to ~~three~~ arrangements for each musical selection. These arrangements are automatically selected based on the user's settings in [[~~Settings_MS2201#Seasonal_Options~~|~~Seasonal Options]] and [[Keyboard Voices|Voicing Preferences~~]] ~~setup menus~~.

Advanced eXperience carillon libraries include up to five arrangements for each musical selection. These arrangements are automatically selected based on the user's settings in [[Musical_style_preference_AX|Advanced eXperience setup menus]]. With the selections available below, each arrangement type can have its own voice instrument selected (depending upon your model)

=== Chime with harp bells ===

~~With the [[harp bells]] voice turned on,~~ the carillon will play two part arrangements. These arrangements play the melody without harmony notes on the chime along with chordal ~~harmonies~~ on ~~the~~ harp instrument. The harp instrument may occasionally take the melodic solos as well.

When enabled the carillon will play two-part arrangements. These arrangements play the melody without harmony notes on the chime along with chordal and arpeggiated harmony on an [[harp bells| harp bell]] instrument. The harp instrument may occasionally take the melodic solos as well.

=== Chime without harmony ===

You may also choose to play melody only selections.

=== Carillon arrangements ===

* Simple - up to two octaves (available on Platinum)

* Three Octave - (all models)

* Five Octave - (Platinum and Millennium)

~~=== Chime with no harp option ===~~

Selecting the five-octave carillon voice will play a suitable carillon arrangement. Most carillon selections are arranged in a traditional carillon performance style using stylistic variations and motifs to support the melody. Five-octave arrangements for the Platinum also have added sub-bourdon bass notes that are particularly stunning when our inSpire audio system is installed.

~~When a user selects a preferred bell~~ voice ~~without the harp instrument,~~ a ~~special~~ arrangement ~~will be used~~ to ~~play~~ the ~~chime only~~. ~~This chime melody has no harmonization at all~~.

~~=== Full five~~-octave ~~carillon bell ===~~

Three-octave arrangements do not have the ornate embellishments that many of the five-octave arrangements feature.
