Having listened to all of the sound theme submissions (and submitted one myself), I'm not sure that any one submission is a perfect sound set. I think OisinLunny's startup sounds are absolutely wonderful, and really carry the affect of "light". I decided to try combining some of the best sounds from different sets into a new sound set, and here is the result:
http://www.mediafire.com/?mnnlem3iio715ok Being based on multiple submissions, this sound theme is truly a community effort, which is why I gave it the name "CommUnity". Of course, the capitalized "Unity" references the Ubuntu desktop interface by the same name :) To create this theme, I mixed the following sounds: . Login screen: [email protected]/UbuntuDesktopLoginOisinLunny.wav . User logs in: [email protected]/UbuntuDesktopReadyShortOisinLunny.wav . User logs out: [email protected]/UbuntuEmailOisinLunny.wav . Start new IM (receive): S. Christian Collins/Ubuntu Light IM New Conversation 1.wav . Start new IM (send): S. Christian Collins/Ubuntu Light IM New Conversation 2.wav . Continue IM (receive): S. Christian Collins/Ubuntu Light IM Continued Conversation 3.wav . Continue IM (send): S. Christian Collins/Ubuntu Light IM Continued Conversation 4.wav . Incoming E-mail: S. Christian Collins/Ubuntu Light Desktop Ready 1.wav . Error: S. Christian Collins/Ubuntu Light Error 1.wav . Notification: BioBiro/3 New Email.wav . Device connected: S. Christian Collins/notification-1.wav . Device disconnected: S. Christian Collins/notification-2.wav I also made the following modifications: . Trimmed the leading and trailing silence from some of the sounds. . Transposed the sounds from the S. Christian Collins set into a different key and change to a brighter EQ to better blend with OisinLunny and BioBiro sounds. . Made sure the volume is balanced between sounds. What do you guys think? Is this not better than the current Ubuntu soundset? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539169 Title: Create new sound theme to complement Ubuntu "Light" desktop themes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-sounds/+bug/539169/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
