Tsunami in Japan was created with a mix of recorded songs and also the creation of several tracks.

First I generated 3 differents noises (I changed the height of the first one by reducing 2 times 30 half tons, I increased the height at the end for the second one and reduced a little the height of the third noise). I finished by adding reverb (60%) used "Wah Wah" effect and fade out. By doing this, I got the saturation that I wanted, creating the impression of the sound of a real tsunami.

After I used registered songs of seagulls, waves and sirens. I added reverb (39%) for all of my tracks and repeated the song of the siren 3 times. I also used the effect "normalisation" and used the effect "noise decrease" and fade in. I wanted that when the tsunami arrives, the sound looks like an explosion.
Description: Everything was perfect and quiet in this small island of Japan, the beach, the sound of the seagulls ... when suddenly we can hear the trembling sound of sirens. Yes, the tsunami is here, ready to destroy everything.
