@phill99:

I had already opened it up several years ago. The 12 bell signals are simply routed to a ULN2003 or similar.
I would have no problem soldering the appropriate voltage dividers to the µC lines to tap the signals.

That's a great idea! Unfortunately, I have no idea how to do that with Audacity...

@twofingers:
The sequence of musical notes is important to me, or rather, when which µC output is switched at what point in time.
