Ringing patterns and hymns
Festive peals and funeral tolls, Vespers and Orthros, the Doxology and the patronal feast — the ringing patterns of the Orthodox tradition from all over Greece, ready on our controllers. And, with tuned bells, hymns (troparia) too.
Our library
Ringing patterns from all over Greece
We have gathered the best ringing patterns from every region and built them into our controllers — depending on the model, from 200 to about 1,000 preset ringing patterns and melodies, for 1 to 10 bells.
Among them: Festive, Funeral, Vespers, Orthros, Doxology, Patronal feast, Bishop’s peal, the Athonite call, the ringing patterns of Patmos, Ormylia, Andros and Panormitis, as well as the Funeral of a priest and the Memorial service.

The ringing of your own parish
Every parish has its own tradition. On most controllers we can record your own local ringing pattern, set its speed and duration, and schedule it at the times you want.
