It's only disturbing if you let it be. Try pressing 2-3-4-1 in that order, holding each key down for about 1 or 2 seconds, and you get a pretty cool beat in my opinion...
You're hearing the glissando of the resulting tones, each the mathematical difference between the two main sounds (one dropping in pitch quickly, the other slowly). Most people perceive this only subconsciously.
Actually Shepard's tones are cool, they sound like they are descending or ascending in pitch but actually they are remaining still in terms of hertz, it's compared to a barber pole effect.
@leandrusi oh yeah i just heard went to Justin bieber cuz my little sister b-day want to go and there nothing more scarier n more depressing then that i choose lady gaga any time then justin
@MrBebob1 I hope your joking...If you actually think your sister is that awful please consult your therapist, assuming you already have one. Then play this tone while your therapist says: "Uhh, you have a serious problem."
@rocketwolfer pff. don't be a pussy it's just 3 tones going down but taking turns going back up an octave so we perceive it as a never ending descending tone lol. You actually cried XD
There's nothing too disturbing about it. Though, I do find it interesting that the sound itself is only around 20 seconds long, and repeats itself again. Listen to a few seconds at 0:05 and then a few more seconds at 0:25
You are correct sir. The last 20 seconds of this vid was the most terrible sound I've heard since the break-up of KC & the Sunshine Bland, ah, I mean, Band~!
That tone sounded like something straight out of an Ozzy Osbourne CD lol-----geez I almost was in fear for my life lol ....WAIT whats that sound no! no! no!! NOOOOOO!!!!! aghhhhhh!! oops I'm sorry that sound was me (farting) lol I'm so embarrassed lol
@heavyspy13 You say OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I started the video, then I was like "And where is the disturbing tone now?" Then I got to 0:36 and then I was like "Damn, that's so distrubing, turn it off!"
oh come on, a descending audio illusion, or "shepherd tone" that sounds like a jet is NOT unsettling (don't know? look it up)...to most, maybe YOU are disturbed by it, but judging by the dislikes and comments, most people agree to disagree with you, and yes, my fair youtubers, Justin Bieber DOES sound worse than that. :P That's right, I went there. Who says a pretty girl can't be smart AND funny?... okay so you can't see me, but that's off subject, think what you may youtube, think what you may.
THIS VIDEO IS COOL, except until it got to 0:37, because the song was gay and the picture was a picture a 2-5 year old would like, damn it, start listening to your viewers!!!
Or the rest of your day would be horrible and depressing?
Are you kidding me? My days are horrible and depressing even without having to hear this shit....You wanna hear something disturbing, look up a video called unsolved jersey devil attack.
you know whats fun hearing this in minecraft that makes me shit my pants
