    Oh, it was engineered. Just not for "product branding", which was what this video is about per its subtitle. The reason for letting the user hear the sounds was that you would want to hear if you got a busy signal, or a SIT tone, or something else _other than_ the modem protocol handshake.

    Hm? Are you saying the modem handshake sounds are an example of skeuomorphism? That's not how I understand the term. An example of skeuomorphism is the "green felt looking" texture that some early PC games and game packages used as a background. Actually having green felt on the top of your real, physical desk is not skeuomorphism.

I first saw it at a really young age & that movie is scary enough normally because Tornados are scary af as is, so little 5, or somewhere around there, year old me saw that and was thoroughly *TERRIFIED* and still to this day have slight PTSD with that movie. Oh, Jason X & the live action Resident Evil (first one) but those are different stories for another comment should one wish to inquire.

    5:50 trully a sound I'll never forget, firstly, the descending tone bringing you into a state of laser focus. When I played the ps1 in my living room at this very moment, everyone in the room would look at the screen, even if for a tenth of a second! then, there it was! With a "heavenly" fade to white, the logo reveals it's "wings" has the tone releases a chord so powerful, yet so peaceful with it's intentions (you were about to play your favorite game after all) accompanied by what resembles the twinkles of stars to further elevate you in a state of another world. Then, in the final moments, the screen turns to black again, a chord of twinkles are played, revealing the Playstation logo, has a mildly mysterious set of notes are played, resembling the potential discovery of something unknown and uncharted, leaving you in a state of wonder, just like a movie would hold you in suspense when you hear the "tun-tun-tuuuuuun".This intro made me feel focused, amazed, intrigued, frightened but determined to discover what this world had to offer me. All of this shown, in the first 10 seconds, as soon as you pressed the "on" button. Truly my favorite tune and one I have ever had the pleasure of earing.

    I remember it sounding different when I was really little. Like, the four notes at the end were just played on a marimba or something with no harmonization like there is now. They also added another higher pitched note to the end of the four notes when I was in grade school and that lasted maybe up until 2013 or so. The variant with the high note at the end I'd always hear in Dell ads in the early 2000s during their "Dude, you're getting a Dell" campaign. Those ads have stuck with me for SO many years.

    MrEmafon4 Only a few were sonic logos. Most were just assorted tech & brand sounds

    So this are all digital sound. I was wondering for years if the sound you hear when you open a can like coke, beer etc. Is designed or just happens to be as it is per „accident“. Cause the sound is immediatly remembered with a nice beverage to enjoy. Cheers

    Considering how many analog sounds like car doors are designed in great depth and how the Coke bottles have been meticulously designed as well, I’d expect the sound of opening a can to have been tweaked in some way, too.

    This was a very good video. I love hearing their observations and am impressed how they appear to know these consumer electronic and media sounds.

    I just love the passion with which sound designers and aural branding experts speak, it's the attention to the smallest detail which is so fascinating...but, I guess that comes with the territory, your job is often to make the greatest impact with the least amount of effort, so I guess attention to detail is key to success.

    The windows 95 startup legit gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. Along with all the other vintage startup and shutdown sounds before XP, so nostalgic!

    Th in the black on the right analysis the sound really well, where the left one gives feedback in a way "regular" people understand
