Sound Request
« on: February 16, 2009, 04:15:27 PM »
Can anyone either get, or point me to, a sound from this clip:

http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,258636.0.html

As the aircraft accelerates you can here very distinctive high-pitched and quite loud drone or whine, which I think would sound EXCELLENT blended with the Corsair "wind" sound from I THINK Sketchworks 2009.

I believe that sound is from the supercharger which can only be heard at certain angles from the plane.  Mainly from the low front area.  U never hear it in the cockpit but would be nice if U can have a different external sound from the cockpit sounds at same time.

My understanding was airflow over the oil cooler inlets in the wing leading edges that generated that sound.

It SHOULD be pointed out that in the video this sound is audible from more than just the lower-front. I think a couple passes you can hear it building as the aircraft descends with its top to the viewer, and it never cuts off abruptly when the aircraft passes, (as would be suggested if it was only really audible from certain angles) you can definitely hear it gradually fade out as the aircraft moves away.

Sax, give me a time frame of at least 5 sec.

I'll see if I can chop it out, and clean it up a bit   :aok

There's not a stretch much longer than one or two seconds where you can REALLY hear it due to the distance of the aircraft. The problem is that it's building and trailing off as the plane makes its flyby, so there's very little points where the pitch and volume is constant. I think about the best part is one of the last flybys before landing, maybe around 4:25-4:27

Listening to the sound closely it reminds me a bit of a tornado siren with a slightly higher-pitch. Maybe modifying the wail of a tornado siren by upping the pitch and cleaning up any oscillation or buzz to make the sound consistent, then mixing that with the Sketchworks "Wind" sound for the Corsair would match pretty close.

Real fast and dirty, but here we go..

Let me know what I can change.    :aok

EDIT: I uploaded .wav files and youtube didn't like it so I changed them to mp3's  (be patient, they may still be processing)

NEW EDIT:  YouTube blows.  Try this.....

I have some recorded flyby's at home.  I will go through them and see if that sound is there and if i can do anything with it.  If I can I will add it to the Sketchworks soundpack.

Messa,

I'm at work so I'll have to check it when I have a moment at home, but thanks for the quick turn-around. :aok

Messa,

If you listen to the audio on the video the whine should be one long, solid, continuous tone, rather than a pulse (as I posted before, the fade in/out is caused by the aircraft moving towards and away from the camera). It's also fairly clear by itself, any distortion in the whine sounds like it comes from the sound of the engine and prop.

That being said, your mixed versions sound a LOT like what I'm looking for. Clean up the distortion on the whine and make it a continuous tone and I think you've got it nailed.

It might take a bit.

I won't be able to spend too much more time on it anymore today.

There isn't much material to work with with regard to a continuous (no pulse) sound.

I threw some compression on it to squeeze the sound out, ran it through a parametric EQ and a noise gate (to isolate the sound further), put it through the time stretcher, then the rice krispies filter (to remove snap crackle & pop) and then some more compression to smooth out the sound overall.

I'm afraid that if I stretch it too much, it will sound awful.  The first thing I tried was some old fashioned cut/paste action, but I couldn't grab a long enough sample to use without it sounding choppy.  I'll give it some more TLC later on tonight when I can slap on my Sennheiser 'phones, so I can isolate myself from outside noise and get a better grip on it than I can with these cheap Staples junk ones at work.     :furious

I also have better software at home in the studio (a fancy word for a blocked off/soundproofed corner of my basement)    :D

The mp4 from that video may be better quality, if you're sampling it, than the flv that youtube displays.  www.keepvid.com will give you a link to the mp4 source.

Nice.    :aok

I'll check it out when I get more time here, or when I get home.
