Ok, since none of you were even close to guessing how I made those sounds, I'll describe the sound fx and how i made them.
Sci-fi 1: Throwing a wrench at a wall. Slowing the clank of it down about four times, fading in other clanks produced in the same way. The doppler effect produced in this sound is not totally artificial--it's made partially as the wrench bounces off the wall and goes flying through the air. The drum is the wrench hitting the wall, cut and pasted to sound a bit like a heartbeat The second sound, sci-fi 2, is purely synthetic, produced by the expression evaluator in Goldwave, with a bit of echo and speeding up added to the beginning. Sci-fi 3 is another expression evaluated synth, with pitch change occuring during the middle to simulate one of the strange sounds in Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. Sci-fi Dentist drill is a modified version of Strange Siren, another expression evaluator script, which has its basis in the ceiling fan of the Heli game. Reverb, octave shifting and time stretch change it--but as to how real it sounds I still have no idea of exactly what I did, but it is purely synthetic and based off that sound. Star is that faded in clank of the wrench that's featured in sci-fi1.
