Favorite sounding rollercoaster

what is your favorite sounding rollercoaster i.e the rollercoaster that has the greatest sounding chain lift brakes anti rollbacks etc.

this one is mine

The sound of the LIMs on Volcano.

Revolution's lift sounds so awesome i dont care whether its thirty years old or boring it just looks feels and smells like a roller coaster

another coaster i like the sound of is magnum. that coaster has like the loudest chain-lift ever

I love the roaring sound the supports on Great Bear make

I literally thought the exact same thing as soon as i saw the title.



Love that sound to death.

fof has a great launch sound too-



And while were on the topic of awesome sounding kd rides-


(start at 30 sec)

I personally like the sound of Top Thrill Dragster That high pitched screech of the cable followed by the insane roar of the train passing by is intense. Although the sound of the brakes lowering is kind of annoying.

1:40 for the best part.

Maverick's 2nd launch inside the tunnel, no doubt!

I thought Cool5 was back when I saw this topic... lol

Any woodie with PTCs sounds beautiful in my opinion.

Hmmm... As on B&M's:
Dragon Khan and Kumba. Definitely that classic B&M Roar. Pure love! <3

On launches do Intamin accelerators score really high with Stealth, TTD and Xcelerator.
But the screeching launch sound from LIM launches do get me a lot too. If I'd gotta name some examples: Maverick, Flight of Fear and even California Screamin'.
Braking sounds do have their charm too. Magnetic brakes do sound really cool. But the sound of a trimming clamp brake just hits me with 2 feelings: "awesome sound" and "Why did you have to THAT for?!".
The sound from Intamin woodies when they produce airtime is also great. The screeching and roaring of all the up-stop wheels used in full potentional.

Now when I look back at this post, I think I like about any sound that a rollercoaster makes. (Well, except the sound of a technical breakdown.) But if I really had to choose between all the awesome sounds a roller coaster makes. Definitely the sound of a train running over the track of a wooden coaster.

Skip to 1:30, the brakes

Umm... How do you post a VIDEO?!

I love the high pitched noise!

And Listen to that ROAR as it begins climbing the tophat!

And I love the sound of the brake fins! ( not heard in this video)

Kingda Ka is a true masterpiece...

Oh yea... forgot to post this earlier, love the sounds of el toro's antirollbacks on the hills!

Love the classic B&M roar, especially on inverts, they way it echoes around the whole park is awesome. I also love TTD's high pitched launch as well, you can still hear that insane screech when your on the far end of the parking lot, I agree with yoshifreak though, the sound of the fins lowering and raising kind of kills your ear drums.

Magnum's lift him. So clanky and loud!

i really like the sound of colossus when it crests the lift and you hear the clank of all the anti-roll backs.

And the cobra has a right roar, because half of it is in a watery hole.

Nemesis when it has new wheels. Can hear it from the other side of the park, such a powerful roar. Oblivion's lift is pretty cool too, mega loud.

Before Superman Escape was repainted the launch sounded like an airplane takeoff

^ Which one the SFMM one or the one in Australia because the one at SFMM still sounds like a plane taking off, probably that combined with the sound of the LSM's is my favorite ride sound.
