Star Trek Communicator sounds

I've looked but can't find a midi or polyphonic sound of the old
classic Star Trek TV show. The handheld communicator. When they
opened it, it made a clicking sound. Does anyone have a link where I
could find one? I've found the beeping sound, but not the clicking
sound when it opens.

Thanks!

There's a Palm program that makes that sound when you turn the Palm on
- it makes it look like a ST communicator. Maybe you can find it (on
a Palm site) and record it when you open your (or someone else's)
Palm.

Sorry you are unaware of the many freeware / shareware software
for converting one sound type to another.

Start with http://widisoft.com

In any event those 4 URLs were found in 20 seconds with a simple Google
search. Many more out there.

Converting .WAV/.MP3 to MIDI is possible but problematic, and not at all good
with sound effects (as requested by the OP).

The trick is useful URLs, not just URLs.

What you posted was neither useful nor helpful. Care to try again?

I don't see you posting any URLs at all, just lame criticism.

They work real nice on my v600.

You don't like anything you didnt post unless its cowtowing to you do
you?

Actually there are MP3 (wave) to MIDI converters (e.g.,
<http://www.intelliscore.net/product.html>). Results are of varying
quality depending on the particular wave file and converter.

>just lame criticism.

Valid criticism of posts that were neither useful nor helpful.

>They work real nice on my v600.

Not on "Star Trek Communicator sounds" (this context) they don't. They don't
even "work real nice" on non-trivial polyphonic music. (Feel free to prove me
wrong by posting your results, if you can -- but of course you won't, because
you can't -- you're just blowing your usual smoke.)

>You don't like anything you didnt post unless its cowtowing to you do

You've got that backwards (like so many other things).

I still don't see you being helpful to the OP who wanted sounds for his
phone. I see nothing wrong with his spending a few minutes converting
files, in exchange for their being free.

All you've done is be unhelpful. Pretty sad for a shill of Cingular.

and of course you snipped out the links that ARE HELPFUL.

No such results, so you were obviously just blowing more smoke.

It was helpful to let him know not to waste time on your links.

What's wrong is that it doesn't work.

>All you've done is be unhelpful.

Again, you've got that backwards.

1. This has nothing to do with Cingular.

2. Personal insults are a sure sign of a weak position.

>and of course you snipped out the links that ARE HELPFUL.

There weren't any such links, as documented in my response.

You guys can drop the thread, I found the sounds I was looking for,
bluetooth downloaded them onto the phone, and they sound great.
Thanks!

Can you share the wealth?

Actually, I'd like the original Red Alert sound for a ringer.
