Aye yo watz good homiez? Anyways, I am getting tired of using the same cycle of sirens over the past few years, so recently I started recording local emergency responses and I compiled a small video (containing 5 siren samples) to identify the sirens, I'm not good with siren IDs (I only know the popular ones used by local PDs) and I was wondering if anyone here good with sirens might be able to help me ID at least one of them. My main favorites are the first and last ones, the others are also nice but they were more distant, so the audio is somewhat obstructed. The last one I recorded today, the air horn scared the shit out of me.

 

I think the first one is a Whelen. And the 2nd, 3rd & 4th all sound quite similar (all from different vehicles). And the last is from BPFD's Engine, it kinda has a Federal Signal sound to it. I'm not sure, though.

 

 

 

Thanks!

2  is def a NYPD.

2 is not NYPD, it's another Whelen siren.

Siren 1 sounds very much like a Whelen Alpha 295. I'm pretty sure there's one like that here somewhere...

All of them are Whelen's, except the 4th one which sounds like a Federal Signal.
