I need to find how to recreate this bell sound that I’m having trouble with.

Song: Beyond the Horizon
Artist: 3R2

The bell sound starts at 1:07 from this link.

If you have sytrus or a synth where you can set individual sine waves then you can copy the sines over to create the same sound.
Those bells are mostly the same sine every octave so D4 D5 D6 D7 D8 etc
but this one has a few more harmonics in the upper region so you could make the "chord" in midi with sines too and add the individuals as well but obviously lowering the volume as you go up

Use Voxengo SPAN (FREE) to "see" whats happening

Well I have sytrus, but...
1. what do you mean by copying the sines?
2. Does this mean this bell requires multiple layers to recreate?

Do this in sytrus. set osc to SAW.
On the bottom left in the menu choose: Convert to sine harmonics
Then delete all the non-dark ones

when done play with volume envelope to get the bell-shave of the sound and add some reverb

Delete those last ones to the right as well. Only keeping the ones that are darkened.
