Sassoferrato (AN) Parr.S.Facondino (03) v.499

Descending PLENUM Test sound. Almost three weeks have passed since the first impact with this disastrous Fraternali-O.E.S. system, which had not been serviced for years. After dismantling the clappers, shortening the noses, drilling holes under the bowl, and equipping it with a parachute (steel cable), which, as you saw in video (01) v.497, was anything but a safety feature! First, the chains were thoroughly unblocked with rust remover, then they were thoroughly greased, and a wait of about two weeks was needed to allow the moving parts to finally loosen and unwind after almost a decade of absolute lack of assistance and maintenance. This evening, after an exhausting week of night shifts, I returned to Sassoferrato to see how things were going and also modify the programming of the O.E.S. radio-controlled computer. This first video is a descending plenum after hours. I kindly received permission from the kind Parish Priest Don Giovanni, who explained to the faithful at the 6:00 PM Mass the reason for the after-hours melody. The concert chord is the beautiful I, II, III, V, which is widely used in the Bolognese system. I, G, 3, flat II, A, 3, flat III, B, 3, flat IV, D, 4, flat The start is beautiful in descending (done entirely manually by the control unit), but the end, even though I started to detach them from the major to the small bell, is decidedly drastic due to the now well-known Scarsellian braking without mercy! It's not a given that once the system is completely repaired and the castle reinforced and repainted, which we'll do when the nice weather finally allows it, we'll probably exclude the braking at the end of the melody, which, in the absence of re-intervals, is absolutely useless!
