When I clicked on the topic, I actually sneezed because of some dust that a little breeze kicked up off my monitor.....wonder if it symbolizes anything relating to this topic?;)
lol just kidding.
I can't wait to get those nostalgic sounds back in my ear drum once again.:)

I love all the sounds. Screams of people riding the rides. The compressed air on Power Tower, the chain lifts, launches on WT and TTD, Roar from Raptor and Mantis, the squeal from Mean Streak that makes it sound like it's falling apart. Or maybe its the offseason depression that makes me miss everything.
I opened this topic on page two and found this link.

First you have the wonderful sounds coming from a wonderful ride. Then it at the very end, I hear the voice. TTD's auto-spiel was the greatest.

Yeah, I loved MF's auto spiel the best. But, TTD's was second best. I still think CP made a huge mistake when they took those two spiels off. All the rest of the auto spiels in the park sucked. But, TTD's and MF's were awesome.
That video reminds me how much I LOVE TTD's station. I think it's the best station of any coaster I've been on when it comes to interacting with the midway. It's great how close everyone can get. I would assume it's perfect for adults encouraging their "little ones" if they aren't going to ride with them. They basically can be next to them as they get on, and walk up to the launch with them. So awesome.
I still wish (although I doubt there would be enough public demand for it) that CP would make a "Sounds of the Park" CD. With a few tracks from the Midway Music, Ride Songs (MF, TTD, WT), and just general sounds from the park (TTD Launch, Midway sounds, Wicked Twister) mixed in... I would definitely buy it... Some people enjoy the sounds of oceans, and thunderstorms on CDs... why can't we enjoy the sounds of our favorite Amusement Park on CD?

MF, WT, and TTD's station music can be downloaded very easily.
MF is on CP's web site in the Extra Point section.
WT is a song; The Winner - Crystal Method
TTD is a song; Ready to Go - Republica
I'm sure everyone knew this already though. :)

Ensign Smith -
You probabbly heard about Dragster sounding like the Death Star from me. That is something I have commented on to several people. On a side note: my first reaction when I saw Walt's video was that it sounded like the Death Star.
You're kidding, I actually remembered something correctly? There may be hope for me yet. ;)

My list is:
Mantis' Roar (I'm sure i'll become really fond of that this year!)
maXair as it reaches its highest point
Wicked Twisters - Launch and when it slams into the brakes
and my all time favorite...TTD cable noise and the high pitch drive wheels.
