    I thought for sure VSL had sample 'sleigh bells' - can only find the 'jingle bells' (which sound like a tambourine).  I have just about everything VSL created - Am I missing them?

    Any alternate suggestions - I need to crank this little Christmas thing out by tomorrow mid day.   Thanks for your fast advice.

    (as a desperate measure I could try to EQ the 'jingle bells', but.....)

    I was actually wondering the same thing....last time I had to get something out on a deadline, I had to go out and buy a set of sleigh-bells and mic them up. :)

    Maybe there is a mix up of  "Jingle-Ring" and "Jingle-Bells"

    The jingle-ring (placed in the "Percussion" folder) is a kind tambourine mainly used in pop music context, and the jingle-bells (placed in the "Bells" folder are the typical x-mass song bells.

    Hey, just thought id send you all a link. Tonehammer has been giving away free mini samplesets leading up to the Holidays, but they are each only available for one day... The link will disappear and be replaced by God-knows-what tomorrow. But today they put up a 125 Meg sampleset of some Sleigh Bells. Anyhow, just wanted to mention it in case anyone wanted to grab them while you can to add them to your library of sounds.

    Check them out at www.tonehammer.com

    VSL team, i hope you don't mind me posting links to other competitor's websites, but since this was a freebie and some people have expressed interest in slighbells, i felt i should share the info. Hope you dont mind  :)
