Favorite sounds of CP

The screams and laughter of people on the rides.

The sound of Mantis and Raptor being propelled by the wheels when leaving the station.

My favorite sound is the TTD engine & the squealing of tires as the trains arebeing llaunched.

My text message alert on my phone is the sound of the TTD launch cables over by the hydraulic buidling! Sounds great!

The train whistle on the CP&LE RR. It's been they iconic sound of CP ever since I was a kid.


I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.

My brother recorded it on his digital recorder while at the park, it turned out great!

I have to say, as an employee, the best sounds are the ones you hear when the park is empty late at night. The best was always hearing Space Spiral's cables hit against the structure during the wind. When it was the dead of night and windy, the sound was very ominous and awesome to hear.

* Wicked Twister station music
* Raptor's roar (I heard it all the way from the commons dorms on one quiet night. I wonder how it would do as a ring tone, I would love that 😍)
* November Rain right before Luminosity started in 2016 and 2017
* Sky Ride car leaving a station
* Steel Vengeance music
* "Arms down, head back, and hold on!"
* Power Tower safety recording
* Maverick's relaunch tunnel
* Top Thrill Dragster's launch
* The "Ohhhh!"s when Top Thrill comes close to rolling back, and the "OHHHH!!!!!"s and cheering when it does roll back. 😂
* Sounds in the arcade
* Windy night at Cedar Point after closing
* Snake River Falls' splash

Zombie thread is hungry for flesh! But nothing beats the sound of a Magnum train going up the lift.


380 MF laps
Smoking Area Drone Pilot

Well, last year when we were at Breakers, the fire alarm went off very very early in the morning (well before the sun came up) and we all evacuated out near the fire pits. So...the fire alarm is clearly one of my favorite sounds at CP.

But seriously, I'd have to say the roar of Rougarou going down the drop, the TTD launch, the MF music still gets me hype, and the gulls when it's quiet near the beach.

Wicked Twister’s launch (hands down)

Raptor’s roar

Rougarou’s roar (even though it was louder with the Mantis trains)

TTD’s pulleys and cable at the end of the launch track every time a train is launched

The “whooosh” sound that just got added back to Maverick’s tunnel each time a train is launched out.

Skyhawk’s initial whoosh of air when the ride first starts

The sound of food employees saying “my pleasure” when handing me my frozen custard cone lol

Basketballs!

Not.

This is going to sound amazingly silly, but when I'm strolling down the midway, passing Kiddie Kingdom and there is a particularly happy-go-lucky bunch of kids on either the motorcycles or the cars just constantly beeping those little horns, I get pretty happy. Mix that with their nearly hysterical laughter, and I've got a pretty big smile on my face. (Maybe it's because it reminds me of what used to be.) I'm sure it drives the host nuts, though.

But, probably my most favorite sound is the music of the Carousel -- either one of them.

Anything Millennium Force related. The station music, going up the lift and hearing a clank at times. TTD's station music. And hearing Chess/Digger/Blackjack in the SV station.


Sacrificing playing video games to ride roller coasters.

Could you describe that sound, Sir?
