Ghostbusters - Ecto 1 Siren (HQ)

I recreated/remastered the Ecto 1 siren since the one available online is low quality. The siren here is more comparable to what appeared in the actual film.

[@LuigiPYT]

Somebody needs to modify the fenix siren with this Original siren from the ecto 1 and make a Exactly réplica of the Ecto 1

[@DeadRaymanWalking]

There was an episode of Jay Leno's Garage where Dan Akyroyd showed Mr. Leno the Ecto 1. I'm sure it was most likely the one from the film.

[@AlfieWestwood]

I’m making one but it’s a cardboard one

[@masamune2984]

Not really sure what you mean but your comment, but I’m glad they used this exact sound in the newer films 🙂👻🚫

¿Luigi? ¿is that you? You're a Ghostbuster ¿remember?

[@QuothTheRavenclaw11]

Finally, the accurate siren. How does a dream I have perfectly replicate it better than many videos online? It's too iconic to get it wrong.

[@TheCarson116]

Well whoever made the inaccurate version that practically everyone uses managed somehow!

[@dragonheart4322]

Ecto-1 is the reason I have been obsessed with station wagons my whole life. And now that I am much older, I appreciate even more that Ray and the boys saved her from scrap in 1984! And I can't wait to see the beautiful old girl in the next movie!

why do my ears appreciate this sound so much, I'm obsessed with the Ecto-1 and its siren. why? I don't even know...

I love the Delorean with all my heart but the combo "ECTO-1 / SIREN" is just another level

[@draftyhades]

Finally an accurate siren! This is what Ecto-1 sounds like. Thank you for this! :D

[@godsguitar7]

Of course! The internet has gone far too long without it, so much so that even Afterlife used the really bad quality one.

[@draftyhades]

Yea, was a bit bummed when I heard it in afterlife. But the inclusion of that weird montage siren is pretty cool! Honestly never really liked it, but you made it sound decent. Lol

[@IronBeagle2003]

@@godsguitar7I think right at the end before the logo we can hear it. I’m hoping with the new one they’ll use the original siren.

[@filmalakulat8502]

Fiiiiinally an accurate recreation

[@goldroblox772]

This is very good! The other remakes are just part of the siren on loop for a long time. This actually sounds like there is an actual physical siren making the noise.

[@Tweetlord]

Ive done very rough isolations back a few years ago, this beats it!! Awesome stuff!

[@godsguitar7]

I've also tried isolations, and they just never turned out well. I finally realized the sound shows up in Extreme Ghostbusters but cut down a lot. So, I edited it to the original length. Hope an official version comes up soon though.

The montage Siren definitely sounds like the RGB version, but backwards. ❤

[@TheCarson116]

Yeah: pretty sure the "yelp" tone (as I call it) is just the "wail" tone reversed, sped up, & pitched up.

[@supersentaiguy]

Finally someone got this right

[@airliner7478]

Ok. Perfectionist take... Best effort so far, but still rough around the edges. The next step is seeing if the audio could be cleaned up and fine tuned so it matches the film sound. Also, extra credit for making the obscure montage variant of the siren...

[@godsguitar7]

It's definitely not perfect, there are scratchy sounds in the beginning I couldn't remove. Finding a source is difficult. I tried to isolate one from the rough cut to no avail. Would love to see an official one come out someday.

[@fleeg3064]

@@godsguitar7worst part is that it doesn’t even seem like Ghost Corp knows they’re using the wrong siren

Thank God someone besides me realized the siren online isn't the right one. Great job man! One question tho...how the hell did you find/make it? Lol

[@godsguitar7]

Thank you! It ALWAYS bugged me but I couldn't source a good quality one. It was until I was watching Extreme Ghostbusters when I caught the siren sound. It was the original but trimmed down; so I edited it and made it longer and made it loop.

[@willschelli6755]

​@godsguitar7557 Let's hope they use the correct one in Firehouse. I mean, they used the right one at the end of Afterlife when they were bringing it back to New York. But for some reason, not in the rest of the film...kinda weird tbh

Would you be making the ecto 1 siren a download?

[@TheCarson116]

I'll never understand where the inaccurate siren sound effect came from, who made it & why, or why the actual original sounds used in the movies are seemingly nowhere to be found. Thanks for your efforts to fix that though! (especially by attempting to recreate the montage siren that nobody seems to remember or care about: yours seems a little slow compared to the real thing though)

[@godsguitar7]

I don't think the siren sound that floats around is inaccurate. It's just low quality and suffers from intense compression. I am going to soon make a new version of the Ecto 1 siren and hopefully have that up soon!

[@TheCarson116]

@@godsguitar7 If you listen to the Ecto-1's siren in the movies (particularly during "WE GOT ONE!" in Ghostbusters 1) you'll be able to hear that compared to the inaccurate version the movie version winds down more gradually (a lot like this recreation you made actually: the inaccurate version only winds down at the _very_ end of each cycle).

Hi

[@JoshuaModerwell]

I never did like the siren that was used for the Ecto-1 of the 1984 film's montage. The people who worked on the film should've stuck with the siren that was heard during the first half of this video.

[@TheCarson116]

On the contrary I like the fact that Ecto-1 has more than one tone, a "yelp" tone if you will (going by the second tone on most emergency vehicle sirens). The "wail" tone probably would have been too slow for the fast-paced montage anyway.

[@JoshuaModerwell]

@@TheCarson116 Well, some did make an extended version of the 1984 film's montage with deleted scenes and used the "wail" tone for and it sounds a lot better to me. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJKWqKScltmNZq8
