Purdue's Old Siren System - Federal Signal 2T22s, 3T22s, STH-10, Thunderbolt 1000-T, and 2001's
Ойын-сауық
This is a recording of Purdue University's old siren system. I believe I recorded it for the statewide drill back around 2008. I thought it was gone forever after KZread deleted my old account but thanks to the magic of backups, I found this video on my external hard drive! Unfortunately, all of these sirens have been replaced with newer Federal sirens. The most prominent Thunderbolt that is heard was replaced with at 2001-130 back in 2010-ish. The xT22's were replaced with Eclipse 8's a few years later ( • Federal Signal: Eclips... ). The new system is much more reliable and battery-backed and will last for years to come, but nothing will replace the sound of the old system. Thankfully, the old system will live on via digital video on KZread.

Can't beat older sirens they just have that edge and that fierce growl/ambience that modern electronic ones just can't compete with 👌

And the 2t22
I love the way how 2t22s and 3r22s stand out from other sirens but also another siren that could stand out from the rest is the Sentry 10V2T

yeah it does
It sounds so good and calming, I love how harmonious the 2T22/3T22 siren sounds.
This might honestly be one of my favorite siren ambiences ever!
That 3t22 sounds nice with the other sirens
Two sirens at one view point that's a dream come true
I remember the nostalgia when I first watched this video when it was first uploaded many years ago. This brings back memories...

Despite not being an Allertor, this is still very Amazing!
The sound is so satisfying!!
Thank you for bringing it back!!!!!!
Sounds so musical! I love it!
The wavy sound from the xT22 is epic. Love it.
You just can't beat the sound of a 3T22

No siren in the bell tower. And those aren't even real bells! There are speakers in the bells.

Actually they are real bells, they are the ones from the old Heavilon Hall. There are speakers in there as well to do the nightly music and they say "to assist in campus emergencies". I thought the bells were fake too based upon the myth that they are, but after research I discovered that they're real, and you can actually see the clapper move and strike the bell. Also love the video about the old system! Now it's all Eclipse 8's and a few 2001s... no more Thunderbolts. The last Thunderbolt in West Laf was just removed in August 2016; the building it was on was demolished. They put a 2001-130 in its place. EDIT: Just saw your video about the new system after I posted the comment. Oops!
This is probably the most best sounding ambiance I ever heard in a long time except okarche Oklahoma siren system
I Was Just There Looking At The FS Eclipse-8s There About 2 Weeks Ago.
Great video for ambience
Nice 3 2t22s in a shot!
Sounds much better than the newer system.

Single tone sirens can't compete with dual tone. Dual is what we all like
that's why I love dual tones sirens

I hope some siren collectors got the sirens from the old system saving them from scrap
Doesnt it sound like the mix of sirens make a sorta 4/5 port thunderbolt?
That’s a whole lot of sirens!
It sounds AMAZING! even though the quality isnt the best
Fuck all these other siren ambiances, this shit is amazing!! These types of ambiances have that nice lo-fi kick that sounds oddly scary but bearable. I wish Purdue never took down these sirens and just kept these up.
Does one of the 3t22s have a stuck high tone damper?
Let me guess the 3T22 is the single tone siren that's high pitched with a stuck damper (not the 2001)
cant beat that
So harmonised
10/10 i wish i could use this for my alarm clock lol
Wow!
Nostalgia.
Music to my ears
Wow cool but Is that a siren in the clock tower?

You know, unfortunately I don't and I don't know why. I think I was more interested in system recordings back in college when I lived up there so I was always getting those. I wish I would have recorded each of them since they're now gone. Travis Tilley has one (kzread.info/dash/bejne/foiBqJqser2soLA.html) and some additional ambiance recordings on his channel from years ago.
