I bought the 2-CD Set from him a while ago. The CD's are o.k. and he shipped them out right away. I planned to transfer the Cylon sounds to a mini .mp3 player for my Cylon. I can't complain.

Ah, I wondered about that set myself.

Thanks for all the info.

If you want a clean copy of the eye sound without background noises you have to record it from the last minutes of the "Galactica 1980"-episode "The Night the Cylons landed, Part 1".

That's the source where I got my sound from, too.

I would like an mp3 file for the eye background sound. Would anyone have one to share?

I have one, but it is a beefy file. Are you going to put it into a display? Or you suit have a sound system going?

You don't need a very beefy (aka large file) of the eye scanner sound. You can loop it if you edit it the correct way, and just have it play over and over again. I had a file version that ran less that 2 minutes and it looped non stop. A minor minor minor break that no one could hear unless they were listening for it or knew it was there. All I did was take the Galactica 1980 clip and extended it out a bit and it work great in a very small file format looping.

Im going to use the same set-up I use for my Vader breathing. I have a small mp3 player with the sound clip that will repeat the clip.

Yeah, my file is a looped version (the sound loops over and over in the file). I could clip it to one "scan" and then you could loop that. Sound good?

What type of player do you have? A store bought MP3... or a chip/circuit deal that reads from fixed memory - or a flash card, etc.?

I used just a off the shelf cheapo MP3 player that I transferred the file over on my PC. I think I found a player for about $25 or $30 and then the power speaker amp.

I clipped the sound I have into one scan (to loop on a player)... AND I modified it some too, removed some of the "hiss" behind the sound. I THINK it is rather kewl 8) PM me cblackthorne.

P.S. I sat and listened to it looping for like 20 minutes too... I may have "issues" hahaha

Oh man I know what you mean, I have that thing looping in my chest about 2 hours. I was about to go crazy, and blind. Blind? you ask, yeah all the flash from all the cameras taking my picture. Believe me those tiny salt and pepper holes block no light from a flash of a camera at all.
