Ok, take the whole tone scale in the earlier version, and add 4 tones
to the top and you have 25, and between each of the lowest tones, add
four frequencies between the ones already there e.g. lowest at 110Hz, etc.

I'm open to ideas. Agreed those aren't the greatest sounds either.
Ideally there would be a tone generator function in VBScript but
alas there isn't.

Subject: Re: Feedback about the Latest Progress Indicator Script
I believe the reasons for the sounds are percentages of one. The
other sounds, the whole tone scale as it was, I think only 20
rather than 100 sounds? Guessing but that is a default of 5
percentage. I don't like that "raspy" sound either, which actually
are square waves as opposed to sine waves, and seems to me that
they are the same as the NVDA sounds which indicate progress bars.
The problem with 100 sounds, is the range of most speaker systems
on computers, and maintaining some kind of musical context as in
the earlier sounds. I'll see if I can work out something, because
it would be fun to hear musical sounds as opposed to this rasp. :)

First of all I appreciate the hard work people who write scripts do to
provide so many useful scripts for people like me who don't have the
slightest clue how to write scripts or any other type of program.
However I am very disappointed with the new sounds in the latest version
of the Progress Indicator script. I find the new sounds very harsh and
bordering on being annoying. However I appreciate other people prefer
these sounds and I understand why GW Micro feel the new sounds are
better for people using laptops etc.
I have a suggestion that could possibly please everyone. Why not create
another script with the original sounds and call it something like
Progress Indicator Classic or similar and make it identical to the new
Progress Indicator script except for the sounds. Then you could include
the edition of the script with the new sounds as the default script with
Window-eyes and also on Script Central and as well make another edition
of the script available on Script Central with the sounds that wer used
previously with this script.
