An alternative scheme might be to do something differential-ish.

For example, it's pretty easy to see how to get the extent on four
(for example, by emulating Double Court or Double Canterbury Minimus).
Do that on the front four, and every time you're about to come back to
rounds, make one step on the back four. Gets you up to 576 different
rows. If that's not enough, swap a pair of bells between the two
halves at some point, and then back again later, to double it. You can
easily shorten to taste by omitting extents on the front four whenever
desired.
