| What's this sound? Hi, There is a radio competition running here in Ireland where you have to identify a sound. Nobody can get it and thought you pros might want to have a guess. The answer will be revealed tomorrow. I will post here when they announce it. They have given 3 clues: Millions are used every day Not usually found in the home Slippy when wet http://dublins98.ie/competitions/secret.php Michael |

| My wild guess is a very close mic recording of clay casino chips....I assume that they are slippy when wet. |

 | I didn't take the time to read all of the items it is not. But, it sounds to me like a person walking on a somewhat rough sidewalk, with the mic in close proximity and with just midrange frequencies. Just a thought. Sometimes the simplest answers are the right ones  -Nate |

| Not to hijack this thread, but here's another sound to guess from a dutch radiostation. Het Geluid van Q - Het Geluid is nu € 10.800 waard! (6 oktober gestart) There's also a list with wrong answers but those are in dutch. If you click on 'oude geluiden' there's youtube vids of past guessed sounds. But again in dutch |

| So I see on the site that it has been won, but I don't see the answer anywhere, what was it? Edit: so after some googling, it seems it was "Shaking a sachet of sauce in hand" What the hell is a sachet? |
