Whelen Carbide / Command ALL 68 international siren tones with & without HOWLER - Blue Lights Berlin

[@JeffFrmJoisey]

It's amazing how many of these tones you could make a 1970's Federal Interceptor produce, just by turning the knob ever so slightly!

[@YelloBruh]

Good luck getting any sort of phaser/piercer tone from that particular siren, let alone any siren from that era.

[@walter_248]

7:44 this tone is actually used for ambulances in Spain as well, just a little closer together

[@t-yoonit]

The howler truly is for American sirens. And now I want one. In town the separated tones are nice, hit the piercer when approaching intersections and flick the howler on when close for that bass that grabs attention. For longer distance responses the wail yelp combo is nice to break up the pattern some . For longer rides out

[@RBLUS_TY]

Comp Wail, Yelp, and Piercer sound pretty good. They have that perfect mix of a mechanical siren and an electronic siren combined.

I find it interesting the Ultimate HiLo sounds exactly like the Ultra HiLo from the Federal Signal Unitrol Touchmaster Delta and the warble sounds exactly like a powercall tone from the powercall sirens

[@thatfireguy6970]

That was the main point of the tones. From what I know Whelen doesn’t own rights to the tones but if they change them a tiny bit and make up a new name they can have almost the same tone on their platform

[@chpman2013]

I'm just wondering what kind of deal Whelen made with Federal Signal, because the "Dozer" and "Ultimate Hi-Lo" tones are basically the Unitrol Touchmaster "Hetro" and "Ultra Hi-Lo" tones. The Fed. Sig. Pathfinder has those tones, but they sound a tad slower. And the "B" tones sound like the PA-300 tones.

Would be cool to see some Swedish and Finnish tones added. Though I don't think it's legislation, just the manufacturer Sarco I believe it's called is the sole supplier there. Although I remember an ambulance in Northern Finland having a Whelen with a Swedish hi-lo similar to the Martin tone, around 2006. One of the Kemijarvi paramedics had a KZbin and posted some videos of it.

Interesting that you found an Indonesian ambulance using this tone! On the other hand we've also seen 2 videos of American police vehicles using the Germany Land Tone and the French tone 😄 I could search for the videos if you'd like to see those. In the end this is exactly what the Whelen systems allow everyone to do - choose whatever tones they like. The tritone at 7:02 used to be the mandatory ambulance siren for the Netherlands until maybe around 2012. So you can find plenty of videos like this for example: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rInMqZqql56qos0 Unfortunately the Command doesn't have the fast tritone.

Only aspect where it might in fact get difficult is on e.g. EMS units with your crew partner attending the patient and no two-way intercom available on the unit, then it would be difficult for the driver hearing the partner or the other way around ... simply due to the distance and the fact that most ambulances have only a small window between the cab and the rear.
