Some chimes have the same type of playing mechanism as traditional carillons - a baton keyboard, with or without a pedalboard, with keys in two rows. This enables such instruments to be played using the same basic techniques, although of course their musical range is very limited.

This index has three sections:
NOTE: This index is almost certainly incomplete, because there are many chimes for which the playing mechanism has not been reported. In addition, there are several baton-keyboard chimes known in France and Germany which do not yet have site data pages.
