Hi Mike-

There were a lot of ways it was done but the most common for the quarter-strikers was high/low for the quarters and low only for the hours. Your question seemed to imply you had only single note options for the quarters instead of the "ting-tang" two note one I'm used to seeing.

On the other hand, I could be missunderstanding your question and all you are asking is how to arrange your gongs in the case. If that's what you are after, then you have it correct: High note for the quarter hammer and low note for the hour hammer.

Hope that covers the question you were asking!!??

David.
