i found this website to try identify the notes;
http://www.phy.mtu.edu/~suits/notefreqs.html
after going through i didn't find any patterns... also we don't know if there's distortion on the sound which would probably affect the frequency and therefore give a different note.

anyway this is what i got in its simplest form (having removed sharps, flats and positions)

D
F/G
C/D
G/A
C/D
D/E
E
A/B

posted in order of when the note was played

EDIT: sorry didn't see that soemone had posted this already

When people are counting notes, are you guys including that last "gurgle" noise as the 8th note?

If that's not a note, you'd be left with 7 notes, which WOULD be a phone number.


EDIT: nevermind, just downloaded the mp3 posted earlier and listed again, definitely 8 notes.


Sounds to me like notes 1 and 3 are also the same.

I'm seeing and hearing 8 distinct notes in that file. Here's what the waveform looks like for me:

Yeah, a phone number without an area code. :/ Last time I tried that in the other thread, I wound up bothering some poor woman in Minot. XD

based on a spectrogram of the sound, it looks just like the quality of each tone is getting worse, like interference. Estimating the general frequency of each tone, it looks like they match primarily to: (in hz)

600, 750, 600, 850, 550, 650, 650, 950

or if using 550hz as base, and increments of 50 hz:

2, 5, 2, 7, 1, 3, 3, 9

however that decodes, no idea yet...

Maybe we don't need the numbers right now, but later in the game.

or do you think there's something else going on with the soundfile?

Has anyone mentioned that there are 8 notes, and the movie is, so far, titles Super 8.
Does the word Super have any musical/tone/pitch revelance?

I had some trouble with this as well... Clear your browsers cache, close and reopen your browser and see if it shows up then.
