It is fan buzz. CFM56-7 engines are high bypass turbofans. When the fan blade tips go supersonic as they do when power rises above 80% (approximately), the shock wave creates the buzz you hear in most turbofan engines. The larger the fan, the deeper the buzz pitch. Smaller turbofans, like the JT3D and JT8D make a high pitch buzz. Larger big heavy engine make something more like a saw sound.
coronaoverhere The change in engine pitch noise is the engines slowing slightly as the aircraft is leveling off at whatever altitude chicago center has given them as they climb out of chicago airspace.

Kind of reminds me of my trip from Columbus (CMH) to St Louis (STL) I had to do a 1 hr Layover at Chicago-Midway on the way to St Louis in 2005 on Southwest . Love the Engine sound
What's the average price for a flight with southwest?
some times ago i travelled around Europe with EasyJet spending around 350 dollars (travelling from/to Milan to Greece,Portugal,Netherlands,Germany and Spain.
In add last year i travelled with the european alter ego of SW (Ryanair) from Italy to Malta by spendind only 0,02 Eur round trip (with online check-in,only hand baggage,no priority boarding ecc.)
That was by far the best T/O video I have ever seen and if you can try to sit in 2F again on a dusk departure love the combination of the buzz and the runway lights GREAT JOB!!!!!
@coolbluelights It has to do with the turbofan. If you sit behind the wing... You dont get that sound. If you sit in front of the engine, you get that awsome sound!
that must suck to live in those house 0:35 hearing all that engine noise haha and langing to must be sight if u live in those houses so close to the airport
I have been at this airport- we were in a crj regional jet from albany ny. we made a stop there and took a bigger plane (forgot what kind i was little) to orlando (disney)
The buzzing sound is the engines spooling up,

Why is there such a changing of the sound of the engine @ 2:16? Is it due to the climb? Anyone?

@b7e7 actually the sound is the turbofan blades spinning faster than the speed of sound so its makes a buzzing sound as a result
