Excellent product. Straightforward installation. Flexibility in setting up a schedule and calendar entries. Good support when working with the demo.
I would have given these a five star review only for the fact I don’t like the phony sounding intros. The bells themselves sound like real cast bells but the digital synth sounds spoil it.
It was wonderful hearing the bells pealing the hourly time and playing our favorite hymns once again, after more than a year of silence. After setting up the refurbished computer system at home and downloading the beta version of your product. I had eCarillon programmed in a few hours with bell music and peals from our former bell system CD library, thanks to the "How-To Videos" on your support page. The system is now installed in our church and connected to our existing amp and belfry speakers. Many of our churchgoers expressed their delight and reflected on how much they had missed the church bells. Thank you, eCarillon, for an amazing product.
As you can hear with the demo, the bell music is very nice. It was easy to buy, download, and use with our existing system. The sound is much better than the old tapes it replaced.
Our old system at St Peter Lutheran Church in Mesa, Arizona failed about 18 months ago. We had delayed the repair/replacement because of the high cost to fix the old system. For $300.00, an old computer and about 30 minutes of our time, we downloaded the program, interfaced the computer with the old amp and now we enjoy some really great hymns. Very easy to program and very easy to select new hymns. Great bargin.
I bought the Hymns to play at our Church was disappointed that it was not all bells the intros were synthesized sounds. Also I was unhappy that I did not receive a CD all I got was a downloadable file.
Works as advertised on internet, very good system!!!
eCarillon have designed an easy access music scheduler software that takes only 5 minutes to setup. I was running eCarillon "Blessed Bells" 10 minutes before the hour the time I downloaded the eCarillon Ultimate Pack and uploaded the eCarillon "Blessed Bells". Excellent product!!!
My church has been using an old system from the 1970’s which included a mechanical clock and magnetic loop tapes. The eCarillon system is so much more flexible in programming and music selection. It’s working flawlessly and the customer support to answer my questions both pre and post purchase has been swift and on point.
We had an old 8 track system that had long since failed and of course getting new tapes was not an option, replacing the 8 track portion with the newer module that had built in hard drive was going to be much too costly. Found this solution and decided to give it a try. After a little time spent figuring how to connect to the existing amplifier it was up and going. With the exception of once forgetting to click the PM button and waking neighbors at 2 in the morning, it has been great. We have had so many positive comments and words of thanks since getting our chimes going again! Can't wait until Christmas when we can try our Christmas hymns as well.
This is the way to go for the price. You can find other mp3 bells online that you can add, as we did with call to worship bells.
was able to replace a unit costing several thousand for a basic work station and $100 amplifier. programming is easier than the unit costing thousands. great sounds
Excellent performance at 1/10 the price of dedicated hardware systems. Just need a PC and AMP and it works flawlessly! Highly recommend this product. Needs a few more selections like Easter, Lent, and bell rolls but works great now.
The Men's Club and Parishioners at St Joseph Aztec welcome back the Carillon bells to the Parish. the bells have been silent for over 2 years and their ringing again is most rewarding. Software is great and we can import our previously used ring tones.
Purchased the real deal after demo. Had a Verdin that crapped out. Weren't spending 5-8 thousand for another Verdin. Go with this product.
System running great, was able to import previously purchased bell tolls and sounds from other sources and learning curve is slight and how to videos on web site are great learning aids. replaced a $6500 system that died for under $500
The bells sound good. The software was a little difficult for me to download onto my computer but I did get assistance from the Carillon and was able to finally figure it out. I am not real computer savvy so maybe that was part of it but it took several hours to figure it out. The bells do sound good however very rich and we are able to use the system fine
I really appreciate the great support! I have used the system to supply music to my neighbourhood and all of my neighbours absolutely love it!
The computer with our old bell software crashed and we needed something in place for Advent. Your product came through mightily. The software was easy to understand and set up and the song recordings were much better than our previous version. Thank you.
Having the bells working again at our local church has been wonderful. Many members of the congregation have expressed their pleasure at hearing the bells again. Great software Wonderful sound!!
Software is super easy to use. Customer support is very helpful. Bells sound beautiful too. Also ordered PC from their 3rd party recommendation. That worked out as well. Having so many Christmas songs is helpful for this time of year. This solution fixed our church's bell system and saved us thousands of dollars. Highly recommended.
The eCarillon software installed right away on the new laptop and works perfectly there. We haven’t connected it to the bell tower yet due to building wiring issues but should have that resolved soon and are very excited to start using it.
