Has anyone tried listening to it in different parts of the galaxy for changes in sound? They could be Thargoid probes sent pre-invasion... sending a message somewhere in the galaxy which could be a 2-way signal/response type thing. It might be worth transporting it to different parts of the galaxy to see if the sound changes. A quicker signal/response might indicate that it is closer to whatever it is communicating with.

Multiple ships required to get it further after it eats through the cargo hold..
 
Great thread :)

I wondered if the UA audio might sound like star audio when sped up but i haven't found any matches yet.

If you speed the audio up 15,000 percent, it does sound a little like the audio at system WREDGUIA PC-G B39-2, it has the same number of rising blips but the pitch sounds waaaay off.

When i listen to stars in the galaxy map by selecting them, zooming right in and hovering the mouse over them, the sound is still fairly faint, even after adjustng all the relevant volumes in the audio menu, is there an option i've missed ?

The audio at the digital scream (cool name) site sounds like it's been slowed down, i've listened to it at a variety of speed multipliers (from 100 to 15,000 percent) but still have no ideas.

Here's some audio from digital scream (ua_1.mp3) that is sped up by 1000% :

I'll have to read the audio analysis threads in full after i've read this one.

The spectogram is potentially interesting.

If you download the original ua_1.mp3 from here :

http://digitalscream.org.uk/audio/ua_1.mp3

And then this visualisation software :

http://www.sonicvisualiser.org/download.html

Load up the MP3, go to the Layers menu and add any spectogram (try them all).

Some of the content looks like writing but nothing that makes sense yet.

Here is ua_1.mp3 after the first spectogram in the list was applied and i zoomed in and out a bit via mousewheel which (de)compresses the time-scale :

I'm sure stuff like this has already been tried by the audio people working on this, ill have to read up.


All the best,

DC.
 
If there's Artefacts making different noises, anyone tried to bring them together and release them in the same space ?
 
Hello Commanders.

Just wanted to inform you that I am exploring. I´m actually at about 1200 LY towards the center of the galaxy from the Imperial Sector. Is there anywhere you wish me to explore, now that I´m there? Just in case there is any clue about the UA origins.
 
No point in bringing a wake shift scanner, since those are still totally broken in the game.

The last time the thing worked for me was somewhere before the Wings (1.2) update. They is also no 10 second delay as somebody noted.. After 10 seconds, it still doesn't work.
 
A bit out of left field but could this be from an aquatic race perhaps? Might explain the distorted morse and the whale like groans and dolphin like clicks. System deterioration could be a result of sonic damage.

I note that 109 Virginis has a water world with life.

The original Elite had Moray Star Boats that could go under water and were said to be mainly used by aquatic races.

Interesting idea, I've been out of the loop for a while now but has one of these been taken to a waterworld and dropped after being pulled out of SC for being to close to the planet?
 
That's possible too, or dropped near icy rings(asteroid ).

Did anyone see the galnet post about these things. It was posted in the last week.
 
Could I point you towards this thread please?
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=162998

It's the current thread for discussing UA developments, theories and research.

There is also a wiki set up to list the most commonly mentioned tests performed so far.
http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Unknown_Artefact


If you look in the topic post of the thread you linked, you will find this thread linked as the second link, above the wiki and below the original.

And... if you look on the wiki, the format for the "tests done" section was copied directly from this topic thread. I still have the inbox message from the person who wrote the wiki article asking for my permission to use our results ;)

Soo... has any one dropped it near a water world? :p

doing a quick Ctrl+F of the wiki I can't find anything. And i'm sure as hell not diving through the threadnought again :D



edit:
I've asked for the mods to rename this thread so that it is not distracting from the current threadnought. Think of this thread merely as a cheesy collectors guide book for amateur enthusiasts, written during the discovery phase and i will keep it upto date as information comes out.

Updated to include information and theories from the shiny new thread, as well as locations mentioned in this thread and on the Wiki. AFAIK the topic post for this thread has all the upto date information. If any one has a reason to say otherwise, I will be happy to listen ^_^
 
Hail, CMDRs!


I've been tasked by the higher powers to collect a list of in-game CMDR names for The Canonn player group.
If you would like to add your in game CMDR name to a collective list please send me a private message containing your CMDR name.
We will use this list to amass a friends group and perhaps one day a private group server.


Your CMDR name will go on a list that will be published in a mass Private Message to the rest of the player group.
It's alright if you're already apart of an existing player group as this is a Scientific Collective and we are not bound by petty politics.


All are welcome! Spam my inbox!
As of this post we have 40+ members


If you are unsure whether or not to join, all backers will receive "founder" status along with a complimentary one-of-a-kind/one-time-only Timocani tinfoil hat!
Once the list has reached a good size I will do my best to compile all the willing CMDRs into one message.
Once that message has been sent the "founder" offer will be closed.


Tell your friends!
