[ Poll ] Do you think air raid sirens should be sampled?

[TBOLT233]

Vote for yes or no.

[Blasty]

What does that mean?

Like wine?

"This siren has a full, robust sound with a gentle hint of overtones, and just enough bite to make things interesting."

In that case, yes.

[SirenMadness]

I think he means sampling the tones of air-raid sirens, on a recorder or something. It would be a great idea, but you need some big luck, as you're most likely not going to record every type.
Or, if you mean that a specific government should sample their air-raid sirens, I wouldn't think so unless they still have them.
Either way, I would say "yes."

[Thunderin' Thunderbolt]

Yes. See above two posts.

(Why didn't you just make a real poll?)

[TBOLT233]

No no no no! I mean should they be sampled on CD's?

[Chad]

Oh, back in the heyday of the community, that was actually in development. After September 11, 2001, at least from my understanding, the project was canceled.

[KnightFox]

I think he means getting a sound sample of each type of signal (and possibly each tpye of siren) and making a Sound Effect CD from it.

[TBOLT233]

KnightFox, you were right on the money!
Yes, that was the kind of "sampling" I was talking about. Maybe I should have put SFX ARS CD's?

[Hanako]

Yes, definately =) as an animator I would quite appreciate that =D

[TBOLT233]

I didn't know you were an animator! (And uh, between you and me, Hanako, judging from your avatar, it looks like you're a pretty good animator.)
