Hi,

I would be grateful if anyone knows of a wav sample of a First world war type whitlse. This is the type that was used to signal the troops to go "Over the top", during a battle.

Thanks in advance.

I think the sound you’re looking for is a standard two toned police whistle.

I don’t have one handy, but I generated an FM synth approximation two types - one based around 3500Hz, and another (closer to a police whistle) of about 2100Hz.

I uploaded them today... once they’re approved - look for them as

and

(by the way - these were my 200th and 201th additions to the freesound project)

Thanks FreqMan, that'll be great.

regards

Jamie
