Help me figure out what this sound is.
Before I get on with the long drawn out breakdown of what I'm talking about, first, let me make it clear exactly what it is that I want. I'd like the name of the instrument/bowed metal setup that produced this sound, and if there isn't a specific one that I can search up somewhere and find more recordings of, I'd at least like the source of the original sound file or ones that used the same instrument/setup. If you are going to reply to this post, do not just say "Waterphone" for example (partially on account of me having looked through Waterphone videos and sound files for tens of hours), but mostly because that doesn't provide me with recordings or videos of Waterphones that make this exact sound, or tell me how to get them. I was using Waterphone as an example, but don't do that with any instrument. I want a direct method through which to find more recordings of this sound, or at least more recordings of this sound. If nothing else, the original source of one of the listed instances of this sound that I've found. If you are planning on simply just saying the name of an instrument and leaving it at that, do not reply. And no, one last time, UNLESS YOU CAN FIND A RECORDING OF A WATERPHONE MAKING THIS SOUND, IT IS NOT A WATERPHONE!!!
Anyways. I have provided a video with each instance of the sound that I've found, there's 4. 2 of the instances (The first and second one to play in the video, AKA the ones from Azure Mines and Pig Goat Banana Mantis) use the same original audio file that was cropped and edited slightly differently. The other 2 provided instances of the sound are entirely unique, and I'm almost certain were recorded somewhere else, sometime else.
As for the information I know. I've attempted to get a hold of multiple people associated with these 4 sources, but I can't seem to do so. Every attempt has ended in either them not answering, or them pointing me to someone else who I can't reach for no reason or another. As for the sound itself, I am fully certain it is not digitally synthesized, since in all examples, when slowed, you can hear the vibrations and osculations of something metallic being bowed. (I'D LIKE TO CLARIFY ONE MORE TIME, DON'T JUST SAY "BOWED METAL SHEET". THAT IS OF NO USE, I'VE LOOKED FOR HOURS). In the Instagram example, this effect is clear as day, as you can even hear the player gently strum the instrument in between larger strokes, and you can hear the sound echo off of the walls of the room.
The 4 examples listed in the video are (in this order)
1: A sound clip from the song "Radioactive" from the Roblox game "Azure Mines".
Link to Radioactive OST from Azure Mines featuring the sound.
2: A sound clip from a cartoon called "Pig Goat Banana Mantis", (Later renamed to "Pig Goat Banana Cricket")specifically the pilot, since it was removed from the full release. It plays at the very beginning. Link to the pilot for Pig Goat Banana Mantis featuring the sound.
3: A sound clip from the safety disclaimer segment of (*SOME*) episodes of a show called "Forged in Fire". It does not play in all episodes.
Link to Forged in Fire episode featuring the sound.
4: The audio of an Instagram reel by user "loverceleb35" Link to the instagram reel by "loverceleb35" featuring the sound.
I'd like to emphasize ONE LAST TIME that just saying "Bowed metal sheet" or "Waterphone" won't help me a whole lot, unless the extremely obscure instrument you list is exactly what makes that hyper specific sound. If you say it's anything, please be sure of yourself, and find a video, recording, or file of that specific thing making that specific sound. Just knowing that it's that thing making that sound doesn't help me if I can't find any material where it does. Also, I am not looking for a SIMILAR sound. This is very distinct, and is very recognizable across sources. I have been looking for this for years, it is not just bowed metal or a Waterphone, not any particular instance of those 2 that I've been able to find anyways.
