What are your favourite startup sounds? You know the little chimes and jingles that play when you turn certain things on? My favourite is probably the . |

I'd have to say that one is my favorite, too. So much nostalgia evoked by it, and yet it's still interesting and (really) beautiful from a sound design perspective today. Back then, I used to dream that the sound was created using the PS1 hardware, and one day someone would unlock the secrets of the console and turn it into a synthesizer the way people did NES and the like. But I think mermaidman is probably correct that it was made elsewhere and simply played back through the playstation's sound chip as a wav. |

The PS1 sound was so futuristic and evocative, still sounds futuristic now imo. |

least favourite eno composition i think it's interesting how such small compositions still represent something I mean, obviously!! but what are the rules? Like particular pitch intervals that 'mean' something? I suppose it's just like music but it because its so shorter its easier to analyse how it affects u like last nite i noticed choice of ringtone Wallander's phone in UK Wallander remake (not sure if same in orig version? If different that would be interesting) |

Remember “Seeeegaaaaaaa”? |

God yes I do. Easily my 2nd favorite! Fun Fact: Apparently, Yuji Naka has said that originally, they wanted to make Sonic a breakdancer and planned to make an animated sound-test screen where he would dance to the game's music, but due to time/budget constraints they couldn't. What to do with the remaining cartridge space, then? Thee iconic digitized “SEEEGAAA!” chant, which came from their TV commercials, was born. :) |

I've been racking my brain because I know there's a good one that is escaping me atm. The best I can up with is the whirr of the computer fan and Valve's Half Life intro - but that's not strictly a start up sound imo (nor is Seeggaaa btw, RD). I'm treating this as strictly system start-up. ^^ not fav+ but one I'm familiar with in recent memory (RIP) |

The switch doesn’t have a start up sound - just a click click click bwarp. On that menu though where you have to press a button 3 times - when you press other buttons, like the triggers or if you push in the left or right sticks it makes different sounds. Useless but fun. |
