Round 3 - sound

A sound you'd know with your eyes closed

Products are remembered by one short motif in one timbre, repeated everywhere: Duolingo's ding, Netflix's ta-dum. Qoloa's is three notes in the rhythm of its name, "Qo-lo-a". Kalimba is the pick: warm plucked tines and paper, a motif on sol-do-mi. The other three families stay for comparison. Every sound is synthesized in code; judge it by ear, on a phone speaker and on headphones.

Qoloa soldola
The motif, short, short, long Known plays the last two notes of the motif. Day kept rolls it into a warm chord. The milestone plays it whole and lands. The stamp throws it high.

The stamp's thump sits below what a phone speaker can play, so a short knock in the mids carries it there. Levels follow the weights on the Motion board: the stamp, Day kept and the milestone are loudest, the flip is quietest. Picks stay in this browser. WAVs are 44.1 kHz, 16-bit stereo.
