Where did I hear that sound before?

Spartan Ops, Episode 7

You start the first mission and then you hear this high beeb noise. In what science fiction series did I hear that before?
I keep forgetting it. Help me out guys :stuck_out_tongue:

DonĀ“t shoot me if I am wrong but…. I still think it is from Battle Star Galactica xD

Ok no one know I guess. No it is not the Star Trek whistle, not high enough. Bu I guess no one has a clue what a talk about or don“t care so :stuck_out_tongue:

I played the mission once, on monday so I didn’t really remember what you talked about.

Doesn’t it occur when Palmer starts talking? I remember that I immediatley thought of the ā€œoly oly oxen freeā€ thing from the books, but I’m not even sure that it was a whistle. Either way, don’t know what it was.

Your hearing the shipwide alert noise, star treck did use that kind of alert so that may be one popular source. Basically, you could have heard it from any major naval related sci fi media…

Yeah and I don“t know if it is a whistle, it“s the closest I can explain it with.
I did here the exact sound somewhere else before some years ago but can“t remember where.
Maybe it is Star Trek but a other sound? I mean with this ā€œinstrumentā€ they used for star trek, you could make change it to that high noise. I forgot the name of that instrument. It has some kind of antenna and magnet and when you hold your hand over it it make noises. Maybe they used that lol who knows.
Still don“t know where I did hear that before

Yes I know how you do it. Its fun to do that but I don“t have that thing here to try to compare it.
But I did hear that sound, the exact same sound. It can not be every science fiction media.
Well I see no one really knows. Thanks for the try.

most likely a whistle, in this case synthesized for modern usage across th infinity. Don’t quote me, but im assuming the whistle has been around since the days where people actually used a real whistle so this sound is used for the sake of tradition…

Maybe you are right I don“t know. I did not notice it in any Halo game. Maybe I never paid attention to it?
A whistle would be really boring but ok maybe there was just a whilst around :smiley:

Actually a hummingbird popped up in my head haha oh I know where I did hear that sound before.
Guys forget about my question :smiley: I did hear that in a old computer program lol

Its Called a Bosun whistle, used to sound alerts in the navy

Also, if it is not the all hands it is Small Boat on the side, which could be the case considering the Covey cruiser on the side.

Ok I know that one too but it still is not the same sound but maybe I am wrong.
anyway like I said it“s fine I found the sound:)

> Ok I know that one too but it still is not the same sound but maybe I am wrong.

It is the same sound, its just sped up in the game, that sound has always been made by a Bosun whistle, It makes it high enough pitched so that people can hear it over all the noise on the open sea back in the old naval days of sailing

Yes I got it. It originally come from what you said but I wanted to know where I did hear it before xD
I spend less time in a harbor to know that you knew :wink:
however I said thanks, I figured it :slight_smile:

It’s not science fiction, but I’m pretty sure I’ve heard that sound from SpongeBob SquarePants as well. XD
