DoubleSteamWhistle.wav

An attempt to recreate a two-tone steam whistle with the superb instrument Steampipe from NI Reaktor. Various pitches and lengths. First three are high pitched. Last two are low, with different lengths and articulation. I imagine those old ocean liners would have sounded like the last two.For people looking for more steam sounds: search the forum for "whistle" to find some more links.

Thank you for letting me use your sounds. They were really helpful for my movie (non-commercional). This is just the preview, only some sounds are used there, but all will be used later in the complete movie. (Of course it's credited...)
