Chris,
 
The DRONES are nice and thick, the WHIRR,very interesting. Thanks for sharing your audio.
 
I actually have the Mattel Electronics football game, like you said somewhere around here as well. I will have to give this a try. I think my football game was a re-issue given to me at xmas about 10 yrs back, I hope mine is built the same as the 70s classic(yours).
 
Give me some insight if you can into how your setup is. The game, an AM radio / guitar pickup...or are you using some other mods or means for a transducer. Are you using a radio / receiver with a single antenna or double?
 
Playing around & adjusting the pitch on these sounds should be alot of fun.
 
Mike

Hi Mike,

I just posted a few short drones in .aif format to Rapidshare-- they're all I have on my computer at the moment, but I'll be posting some more in the future. The drones were all made around '79 (?) with a Mattel Electronics football game... which is still around here someplace, so maybe I'll try making some new samples with it!
