Title: OS/2 (Startup) Sounds
Post by: MPJ on July 11, 2024, 07:43:17 pm
I was wondering where the OS/2 sounds come from and came across this website:
https://www.avid.wiki/OS/2 (https://www.avid.wiki/OS/2)

And found some original sounds on Youtube:

Warp 3:

Startup part 1:

First off, thank you kindly for reminding me of AVID. I happened across this website one late night and totally forgot it's name the day after.

While I don't have much to add, I just wanted to say that this is an excellent find! Aside from MELORISE and GLIDE, which were WAVs found in some version of MS Office, I haven't heard a lot of these sounds at this level of quality.

Here's a remake of the Warp 3 startup sound I quickly threw together in Audacity. I'm almost tempted to waste a bit of spare time throwing together some "updated" sound schemes.

Hello. The link is not public, it request for your to approval the access. It is something that always happens with the Google Drive GUI that is confusing.

Hi Martin.

Apologies for that, it should be fixed now.
