Wind Chime sound effects from gentle tinkles to proper clangs, in metal and other materials, recorded dry in a studio or outdoors. They can go eerie in a hurry. There are porch chimes for a quiet suburb, and temple chimes and wishing bells from an ancient Chinese site. Tibetan bells cover the stranger end. Long, loopable runs sit next to short bursts, some with howling wind mixed in.
A chime tells the audience about the wind without showing a leaf move. Put a chime in the background of a Suburb scene and the place feels like home. Let it ring when the air is dead still and it turns into a horror moment. Some sets come as full ambiences with the chimes already in the space, birds and distant cars around them. The isolated recordings are easier to place yourself, and the textural sets work as a Shimmer for magic or a soft transition in a trailer. For a busy temple, the prayer bells come with crowd walla.
