Drums Soundtrack: Engineering Expert B (09-47)

The Drums version of design soundtracks were developed in response to problems identified with the Bells soundtracks. One complaint that we got from the interviews was that the bells were difficult to differentiate well. Particularly, the upper harmonics of the bells could overlap too much. Taking the strength of the bells, the percussive attack, we created a version with drum sounds so that each of the eight design activity sounds could be easily discerned.

As with all design soundtracks, each activity is piped to either the right or left ear. This separation is noted in the sound samples table to the right.
