Family meeting's ultimate resonance (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

clang

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'resonance' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.

'family meeting's ultimate' is the wordplay.
'family' becomes 'clan' (I've seen this in another clue).
'ultimate' says to take the final letters.
The final letter of 'meeting' is 'g'.
'clan'+'g'='CLANG'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for clang that I've seen before include "Noise from crane" , "Make a loud metallic noise" , "Ring like a bell" , "Harsh cry" , "Noise as of cymbals" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
