This sound library is sampled from a toy that has two modes, which are obviously "Piano" and "Xylophone". You can access these modes via key switches.
I made this virtual instrument so that is played back exactly like the original toy, right down to the quirk that necessitates that you press the keys down with a bit of force, in order for the hammer to hit the bells. If you don't, then you'll just hear the keys flailing and no tone.

Extra considerations:
The soundfont was created by Soni Musicae but the samples are free and come from Ghent (Belgium) city's clock and were made available by a non-profit organization. The original site is now dead (but is linked here and can be accessed via Internet Archive) so most of the uses here should be okay.

This little soundbank gives you the grandfather's clock you ever dreamt of, and its true original tick-tack you need for suspense purpose. This clock has a special deep and heavy sound.
The sounds are organized on the keyboard as follows :
B2 : looped tick-tack as long as you press the key.
C3 to B3 : All the strokes from 1 to 12, 1 hour on C and 12 on B, with the noise of mechanism.
C4 to B4 : almost the same thing, but without the noise of mechanism.
