Response to a request for silence - http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5558#5558 - just too bizarre to be ignored! 10 seconds of blissful silence - and it's even loopable if you want it for longer! (Will anyone d/l it ... how about you Schulze?) And do give it a rating. Feb 07: Requested shorter versions, Silence1, Silence2, and Silence5 are now also on FS.

Even when I replace the default sounds for Activesync in Control Panel with the silence file, I still get those &^*%*&%& maddening bleeeeps at frequent intervals. What am I doing wrong???

Being restricted by our ICT politbureau in deactivating the eardrum bursting beep device, I found that assigning silence.wav to the corresponding windows xp events is the easiest way to silence buggers like the volume control. Thanx!

Really useful : like for me adding long silence between tracks on a cd, without any sound app!
